I reproduced "the She Wolf" by Jackson Pollock by animating it with a stress on motion and vivid colors.
I like how you chose to animate Jackson Pollock's "the She Wolf," especially when you add colors red and yellow on top of the painting, it brings the picture to life. Small details such as making her eye bigger is also nicely done; it makes the painting even creepier, and I think it's a good thing given the context of World War II. The more desperate the painting looks the better the artist's feelings are expressed. One thing you mentioned in the "Product" section, that you weren't able to fit the colors into the rest of the picture, I agree with you and I think one way to solve this is to use darker colors and a different brush. Also, maybe next time you can add more slides so that the she walks more smoothly. Overall, well done!! I hope my advice helps :)
It is very brave for you to modify directly on the original piece! Making the figure into a gif embodies movement of the “She Wolf” well (which creates an effect that the original piece did not present very clearly); and I like the motion of legs very much as the changed parts were incorporated into the artist’s style smoothly. As to the eye, I like your enlarged version better because the original one was so small that I hardly realized it was an eye. The extra red arrow also works well. However, although the red and yellow lines delineate the outline of the wolf well, since you chose the relatively bright color in the whole artwork, I find that the figure of the wolf was a little over emphasized. I suppose that using a darker yellow for the layer will be more appropriate and make the modified part more integrated into the chaotic theme.
This is a great start to digital reproduction. The gif is interesting, and the added lines add a street art aesthetic. The research was thorough, but I wish there was more of a parallel to how the original themes of the Pollock piece are conveyed/changed/reinterpreted through your piece.
