Research of 6 different portrait artists

Raul Allen

Raul Allen's style of art is Graphic Design Illustration in the form of comicbook and magazine art, in this piece portraits of Barack Obama and John Mccain. I am a fan of comicbook art, the paint styled texture and the flat colors which is why I chose this piece.


Kelsey Dake

I like how this Graphic Design piece by Kelsey Dake incorporates a similar comicbook style through a flat untoned image and also how the piece looks hand drawn and is pure black and white. I also like how some typography was used in the piece since it helps give the piece a unique style.


Tom Hovey

I like the style Tom Hovey used in this piece in that it looks like it has a rough kind of texture as it looks like the image is stuck in from something like a magazine. I also like how the background is painted and the man is on a seperate layer. I also like the idea of the speech bubble and the handwritten style of writing in it.

Alejandro Rene Hernandez

This style of art by Ajejandro Rene Hernandez interested me because it uses pixels to create an image. I think I would be able to produce a similar piece using Photoshop.

ArnO

What I like about this piece by ArnO is that the image almost looks real even though it's a digital image. The smooth detail and airbrush effect give away that the image isn't real however the impression is that it is.

Ingela Och Vi
http://theredlist.fr/wiki-2-343-918-225-816-view-paper-profile-och-vi-ingela.html#photo
This portrait piece by Ingela Och Vi is created using paper but what I like is that the impression given is 3D and layered.
