Activity # 3


"Sir Charles, Alias Willy Harris", was created by Barkley Leonnard Hendricks, in 1972. It is a oil on canvass production. Hendricks, uses symmetrical balance in this canvass by creating all of the figures the same. He also features proportion by making the viewer think of three different figures instead of one by placing them together, but at different angles. This is "super fly" reincarnated........








"Relative" , by Sam Gilliam, is a acrylic on canvass piece that was produced in 1969. Gilliam, brings unity and variety to his canvass by incorporating one large bunched, draped, folded, spread, and hung piece of cloth. He brings the variety to the viewer by using complementary colors to life. This canvass is exciting, bold, and different.
