Visual Research for the Body of the Dragonfy

Visual Research Done to Create the Design of the Wings

Roy Lichtenstien & Trees

I think this would look really nice on our dragonfly's legs since we already have birds, the sun would add a more natural and nature feeling. If we put Lichenstein's sun towards the top of the legs and trees going down the legs it would look really cool.

Warhol & Art Nouveau

I think if we use repetition of the swirls with the colors from the body and the wings on the legs it would look nice. It would bring elements from the wings and the body on the legs. Like Warhol used similar colors in his repetition of Marilyn Monroe's paintings. It brought elements from each square into the next.

Keith Haring & Art Nouveau

I would use vivacious colors similar to those Keith Haring used and incorporate them into the legs of the dragonfly. Haring made his work very animated and the people seem very flexible. So I would put colorful dragonflies on the legs and make the wings look as if they're moving. In art nouveau the lines are very 'curvy' so I would increase the curves to give the dragonfly more flexibility. This is like something I have in mind. But I would add bolder lines around the dragonfly to make it look like it moving. Similar to what Haring did.
