My progress this week was finishing up my first Op art contrast piece. I decided to leave a thin white line around parts of the figure where the viewer might lose some details. I' happy with the result and how the figure is just distinguishable enough. I also started on a new piece in this series. It is almost 3 times bigger, but will also be just black and white. This week I was playing around with a bigger size, next week I will be trying this style in color.
Bigger one

The artist that inspired me this week was Darel Carey. He is an Optical artist who creates installation and spaces for his audience to interact within. The way he uses and invites the figure in the installation is very harmonious. His design elements and patterns he creates inspire me to do an intricate design that not only gives an illusion, but can also create movement like he does in his work
