Similarities
Both my piece and my inspiration piece share similar colors. We both only use black and white values to create pieces. We use similar hues to show the texture and detail of the hands in our pieces. MC Escher's intensity of the black and white is strong and bright, the white color on mine isn't as bright but the black is very strong as well. All pieces share similar texture as with mine u can imagine how the hand may feel if you touched it and same with MC Escher's work. |
Differences
On the contrary, although both pieces depict a similar image they are very different. Starting with the medium. Mc Escher uses methods of printmaking that involve ink and carving. This method gives a different look to the art, which is why the opacity of the black in his art is so much deeper than mine because I used charcoal. Because of the medium difference between my work and MC Escher, Mc Escher's piece has a visible line in it because of the medium. This medium of printmaking makes it easier to see those lines and they are more prominent. Compared to charcoal because it blends so easily. |
