Eden Weingart- Designer

http://edenweingart.com/hestian.html

The designer I gravitated most towards was Eden Weingart.  She uses motion in most of her designs rather than still images, and tries to make the still images appear as life like as one can imagine, as though they were screenshots taken from her mind. I like that she uses the drawing pad to personalize each work and that they differ in simplicity. None of her pieces are too complex to the eye. I believe her mood depends on the type of project she completes. The first work is very simple, being positive and negative spaces only and is sophisticated since it was created for an awards ceremony. The second piece is more fun and silly since it is a short animated loop of a bird "liking" pictures on a phone. The last one is a video she helped create to educate the public of the safety of stoves and how to help save the lives of children who annually die of smoke inhalation. So in that case it is very serious, but the art style is very simple.(the link is the video, it would not load).

My emphasis on this piece is the lowest circle. I has the most light on it and the flash gradients into the top half to black. The lines that hold the circles move your eyes from the bottom to the top to the main mirror. The different colors and sizes of the individual circles gives this photograph variety. The highlights from the light brings emphasis to the circles as they lead upwards causing a contrast to the shadows.

My emphasis in this piece is the corner of the wooden cupboard. The bottom half is blurred and the edge is too, but the front half is in focus. This causes your eyes to travel there first, then follow the boarder of the door. The lines lead upwards and to the bottom right. There is shading on the left that hints there is something inside the cupboard. My variety is the different tones of brown seen throughout the picture.

This picture's emphasis are the parallel lines going horizontally across the page. It creates movement from each side and leads the viewers eyes to this dark shape that overlaps the lights. The edges on the fan from the reflection of the lights causes highlights that bring out the fan. Although dark, this picture has plenty of variety. The different variants of neutral tones gives this picture its difference.

My emphasis is the black stripes on the top left corner.
