There is some sort of arcing shape going on in the background. there is a lot of small details like the stars in the picture above and the flowers and other various items in both artists pictures. 12/3/2013 03:21:58 am

Both of the artists have a very similar style and use similar elements such as color, and repetition with a color. Alphonse seems to use more brighter colors than the piece above however.

i think the way the artists use the arkway, pattern design. or how the women are drawn the shape looks similar. the thing that's different is Alphonse Mucha uses a lot more detail. 12/3/2013 03:29:42 am
similar: unity of colors,

they use the same colors, the same feeling in the pictures, and they use the relatively same technique to draw the girls.

I don't know how to explain it but they have similar styles, the way they make their background to catch the eye of the person looking at it. They also use a type of pattern or rhythm in the background that is kinda hypnotizing, when you look at it too long it feels like your in a trans. 12/3/2013 04:28:59 am

Forgot to write similarities... They both have women as the focus and are at the center.

It has the same kind of portrait feel that most of Alphonse's pieces have. It's of a woman wearing a long flowing dress with lots of attention to detail much like most of his. Karen's illustration doesn't use such an intense color palette, though.

you can tell that there is some big thing going to happen but there isn't as much color as there should be Comments are closed.
