Hasan Kale paints his works on a microscopic scale. He focuses on painting on things that we see everyday, things which are commonly ignored. His work showcases extreme detailing in small spaces. I really like how his work is so intricate. It's powerful to see something so precises and exact in such a small area.

KwangHo Shin was born and lives in Seoul, South Korea. He uses oil, charcoal, and acrylic to create his works. Shin uses color in his works to express the emotion of the figure or picture. I think that using color as an expression of emotion is a really effective tool, and it connects to our research on color theory. I really like how he distorts the paintings.
Yayoi Kusama grew up in Japan, and uses a variety of mediums for her artwork. I was most strongly drawn to her works which played with light and reflection while searching for pieces for my anthology. Kusama's works vary with the times, and she has changed and developed as an artist to make sure her art connects with the viewers. I love her use of dots and this idea of playing with positive and negative space. Duy Anh Nhan Duc works primarily with natural and vegetation type mediums. I was really intrigued by the variety of work he does, all focused around nature. Duc's pieces are very visually appealing with clean compositions. Nature in itself is beautiful and could be considered art, and I think that these works which take a natural beauty and use that to emphasize and tell a story are so powerful.
I was really intrigued by the medium of Mark Khaisman's works. I've always enjoyed pieces or making work that experiments with different ideas of what art can be made out of. I really like the process of creating value by simply layering tape. I really like that in the the piece above he used so much color. In most of his other works, Mark uses plain brown packing tape. I also enjoy that this artist sticks with one medium, but has a variety of subjects from people, to chairs, to bags.
I really like how intricate and detailed this artist's work is. It's amazing how 2-D ideas can become 3-D masterpieces. I feel like his process of layering could be interesting to experiment with to create a great sense of depth in a work. I think it's interesting that in some of his newer pieces, like above, he lays out the layers of cuts in a grid to show how the work transforms. (Plus it's cool that he's from VA)
