CHAPTER 5 & 6 COMIC BOOK
In chapter 5 Living in Line discuss how comics show emotion and senses between or within panels. Expressionism gave artists the ability to express their inner turmoil that they could not express before. Wassily Kandinsky used line, shape, and color to help symbolize the five senses. For example reds equal angry, blues equal placid, textures equal anxious, shapes equal loud, lines equal quiet, and cold equal greens. Expressionism and synaethetics can obscure subjects because of their distortion. Pictures are a strong way to give away strong feelings, but sometimes it is not enough and words can help make it more clear. Chapter 6 is called Show and Tell discuss word choice and how when we were younger we chose any describing words that worked but then we grew out of it. When art shows attention to detail is when it is concerned with pictorial Representation, and some can be Iconic that act like symbols instead of pictures. There is also an addictive combination and that is when words elaborate an image, and the image can also elaborate the words. These two chapters definitely further explain how comics express the story with usage of images, words, and senses.
