The relation between Rococo art and my graphics

-Rococo Art-

After Tuesday's lecture, (4-22-08) There is no doubt in my mind that my graphic design style is more like that of rococo artist than that of baroque artist. Like the professor described in class, the art of rococo artist was much more playful than that of baroque artist. She made a cool observation that made it real simple for me to differentiate the two genres. The professor compared Rococo art to a play, and baroque art to an opera. An opera is much more serious, and less casual. In my opinion, my graphics are much more playful and casual than that of many mainstream graphic artist that I know. My art is definitely playful and at times my stuff can be suggestive like the art of Fragonard, here is an example of a few pieces:

this is a postcard I made to invite people to an art show I was hosting:



this is the cd cover for my friend's albums:



& this is a poster of my most recent..:




and in comparison here is a piece made by one of my bosse's for a studio recording company, as you can see this piece reminds me more of baroque art in the sense that this piece is for sure, a lot more serious. It's hard not to notice how strong the lines are in this piece.
