A recreation of Barnett Newman's painting of the same name, done n Paint Tool Sai.
I think it is creative to make connection between the size of the artwork and the size of your file size. As I looked close to your recreation, I could feel the size of the file since the resolution was decent after several times of zooming in. I especially like your brush style that actually looks like a legitimate artwork that is done by actual paint and brush. I was especially fascinated by the fact that the tone of red is different with different area. While your work simulates the artwork exactly, I believe there could have been some twists that would have made your art unique while recreating the piece of art, such as finding a way to integrate the artist's intention into your work. The documentation you made was precise and easy to navigate through. By reading it I could understand the artist and what your approach was. Nice work:)
Creativity- I would have been more impressed to see you do a work in Newman's style original to you instead of a reproduction. This work certainly proves that you have the skill to do it.
Execution- You executed this really well. I was particularly impressed by the shading across the canvas and that the edges of the zips were not uniform.
Context- Since this is a reproduction, it is undoubtedly true to the artist. Your intention to show what it is like to view the painting also shows an appreciation for the artist.
Documentation- Succinct and all-encompassing.
