I was looking for ominous yet colorful inpiration for my art project. I got that inspiration with these oil paintings of Barbie Dolls by Peihang Huang. Her use of colors that normally wouldn't coincide are placed and blended together to create these amazing paintings. I love how she takes all different angles of the dolls and there's something so eerie yet friendly that invites the viewer in to take in more of Huang's experience. She hails from Taipei, Taiwana and creates grotesque paintings highlighting the frailty and softness of human flesh and personality. She uses oils on canvas and creates large pieces that blow the viewers mind away.I was greatly inspired by her paintings and her usage of color. I knew for my piece I wanted a profile of my face and having Huang's pieces for reference and inspiration were a huge help. She helped me come to the decision to paint my face in a fauvism type style. Which helped really make my painting unique and come together.
