Art and Life of Julia. Approaching Giacometti’s “Annette” at the Met. May 15, 2015 at 5:52 am · Filed under Fine Art. This Spring I participated in the Metropolitan Museum’s Copyist Program. I was assigned Giacometti’s “Annette” to work from. I had 6 weeks to observe this masterpiece and to learn from it. I’ve always admired Giacometti’s work, particularly his drawings. He only used those closest to him as models, his family, pets, and his wife Annette. I approached my studies by creating multiple panels...

Art and Life of Julia. Final Panel: Giacometti’s “Annette”. July 10, 2015 at 5:13 am · Filed under Fine Art. Searching for the emotions behind the sitter was a more intimate process, and I needed to tell it through elements that were familiar to me; a Caribbean palette, and a Caribbean woman. Painting that day was exhilarating! I painted quickly, with large physical gestures, moving into and out of the canvas. Share on Facebook (Opens in new window). Click to email (Opens in new window).

Art and Life of Julia. Archive for May, 2015. Telling the sitter’s story: Giacometti’s “Annette”. May 31, 2015 at 5:57 am · Filed under Fine Art. Where did the energy emitting from the painting come from? My entire focus now became psychological. The stare, the uncompromising pose, the anger, the containment, what was she feeling? What was her story? It was so exciting to me! Second Panel from Giacometti’s “Annette”. May 27, 2015 at 4:48 am · Filed under Fine Art. I decided to focus on this aspect of the...

Second Panel from Giacometti’s “Annette” | Julia Santos Solomon
https://santossolomonstudio.wordpress.com/2015/05/27/second-panel-from-giacomettis-annette
Art and Life of Julia. Second Panel from Giacometti’s “Annette”. May 27, 2015 at 4:48 am · Filed under Fine Art. I decided to focus on this aspect of the technique on the second panel. I added a grainy acrylic paste and focused on the head only. The paint absorbed very differently over the acrylic paste, it really made painting completely different. The brush no longer glided over the surface. I had to push the paint into the raised area. A different sensation from the previous panel. You are commenting ...
