chap 6 Artist reviews : Gary Simmons

Gary Simmons created his work on large walls like Sol Le Witt and Paul Noble. But Simmons's drawing were not based on scales or instructions. Simmons inspirations are of childhood and adolescence and used a large blackboard and chalk for his drawings. The drawing Boom is of an exploding cloud with lines and shading curves that draws your eyes around the whole board. Simmons's Drawing is more fee and dream like than the more structural drawings of Le Witt and Noble.

Chap 6 artist review : Sol Le Witt

Sol Le Witt is a conceptual artist who was the first to create wall drawings. The way Le Witt  would create his drawings, is by creating instructions for the drawing itself. His drawing  Wall Drawing # 766, he used isometric cubes of different sizes , and colored them with different  ink washes superimposed. On the side of the painting is where he instructions of how the painting was made would be posted. The idea of these instructions could produce many other drawings that would look different and still be connected.

Chap 6 Artist Review : Paul Noble

Paul Noble  Created the drawing Nobspital. Noble uses a large paper , usually wall sized about eight feet high and five feet in width. Nobspital was drawn from a birds eye view from pencil. Noble's style of drawing is  artistic and also done though scale. his drawing leans more architectural but looking at the building and its details isn't the norm of how an actual hospital would like, but something out of Noble's world.
