Media Paint

The edited version of my paint video, in which I plan to

Steve Brodner (Satire)

Steve Brodner is an American satirical illustrator and caricaturist. I really like his 'washed out' style of painting, he first draws his images out and paints them in watered down paint/watercolours.

Satire/Painter research



Vincent Van Gogh is possibly one of the most popular 'abstract' artists known. Although most of his work wasn't appreciated until long after his death in 1982. The two paintings above are Starry Night (left) and a self-portrait (right) both using a form of abstraction known as Post-Impressionism. He used rough beauty, emotional honesty and bold colours. I love the blue and orange colours he uses, along with the natural swirls and paint brush strokes.


Jenny Saville is a British contemporary painter who is well known for her large-scale painted deceptions of nude women. She works and lives in Oxford, England. I quite like her 'messy' style of painting people but still keeping the realism.

Satire images/research

Images from research
These are some more serious ideas within Satire, I started to research up on these once my ideas were running dry to try & refresh my memory/change my idea whilst I have time.
This image links in with my Caricature ideas, this is the 12th Doctor (Peter Capaldi)

This is one of Tony Parsons' caricatures, for some he uses photoshop to create his own images & caricatures, whilst some others he uses Acrylic paints on paper.
More of his work:

My videos

The link to my silly string video

The link to my paint video

I think the paint video turned out a lot better than the silly string and i may use this as part of my final piece. The video could look better slowed down more but may need cropping as it is quite long.


I think i want to edit my paint dripping on my face

I could have many diffent ones in the same room but different colour paint on each one
eg. Blue, Yellow, Red, Green, Orange, Purple ect ect
Colours can link to emotions

Another idea i had whilst thinking of this is to just have paint dripping into a piddle in slow motion.
