Margaret Keane

1.) Margaret Keane
2.) Found on http://www.artnet.com/artists/margaret-keane/past-auction-results
3.) Keane's portraits are recognizable by the oversized, doe like eyes, which had always been intended, in her view, to show the inner person more.
4.) Elements of art: color, value, space, and texture.
5.) Principles of art: emphasis, movement, and unity.
6.) The mood or feeling that can be invoked is a feeling of mystique, mysteriousness, maybe isolation or sympathy.
7.) The artwork is intended to show the inner person more through the most expressive part of the face, which are the eyes.
8.) I feel like this artist is worth sharing because her art is very unique, and the fact that the big eyes are the most recognizable feature in all of her works is very interesting in my view.
