Eric working with pen and ink during class. For this week, we studied PUNK influenced art.
This week we are covering the punk subcultures, 70’s, steam-punk, cyberpunk, diesel punk. I found that these genres are very enthusiastic and have a lot of energy in the style. It is based on a “Do it yourself” philosophy, influencing the art to have an independent quality. I also found it interesting how these genres would take eras from history and make them into something new. It opens up a lot of new possibilities, allowing new ideas and concepts to be born by combining two or more existing ones.

Gail demonstrates the bubble and ink paper treatment: combine liquid soap and ink, blow bubbles into the mix through a straw, then apply paper to bubbles to create a circular bubble pattern.
