Fonts of company logos


All these logos have different fonts. These logo fonts aren't chosen out of the blue, they all have a good reason for the font, the colour etc. The powerful cars have thicker and bolder fonts while the elegant and classy ones are thinner. All the fonts are legible and clear to read. The colour of the fonts are either black, blue or red in this picture.

FRANCIS BACON

Francis Bacon: Autorretrato 1971 Francis Bacon's painting is interesting because the face is not how a face would typically look. The lines and colours make my eyes follow along. The colours chosen are all deeper tones and more mature looking. The shapes of the features on the face are disproportional. There is value changes ranging from black to white, dark to light. There is both positive and negative space, the negative space is all back but the positive space has more variety of colours. The painting interests me most by the colours used to show the face features and how they are not how typical faces look like but it is very interesting because I don't often see self portraits that look like this!

Egon Schiele

Egon Schiele: self-portrait, 1911Egon Schiele's artwork interests me why the way the picture is painted. The lines on the face are used to represent the deep inner emotion, disturbance, and lack of peace. The body is outlined by a different colour than  the rest of this art piece. The lines going to the stomach abruptly stop which makes him look very malnourished.The lines on his ribs are deepened by the shifts in colour showing the ribs are exaggerated making me think that he is tortured and starving. The colours make this piece interesting because its all the very close in colour and when the white is used it really brings the eye to the body structure. The shape in this painting is organic and all of the parts of the body looks rather hollow. The texture looks sharp because of the bones that are shown and rough because of the way the darker colours are added on the body.The picture has a good amount of negative space and the positive space is really busy looking by all the different shades of the colours. This artwork is interesting to me because not only how it looks like but also because the story behind it.

Michelangelo artwork

Michelangelo's artwork has a lot of meaning to it. This has the element of space in it because there is open space and closed space. It is busy where Adam and God are, bringing the focus away from the negative space focusing on the limited amount of space between the fingers. Thus exaggerating the importance and significance of the space between the two fingers showing us the meaning behind this artwork. The meaning behind space where Gods in looks like a brain, this shows that Michelangelo was connecting God to human nature and the works of our brains. This space is busy because when we think of God it has a big impact on humans.

Giorgio DiChirico

Giorgio DiChirico                                                                        

                 
Giorgio's artworks is very perspective and empty in the terms of space. The mood it give off to me is lonely and empty. Because of the emptiness of the pieces it makes me feel lonely in a way and depressed in a way. The colour that are used are not every vibrant bold colours, they are toned down and settle.  These pieces look very ancient and old. These pictures have open space and are three-dimensional because they are perspective art pieces. Giorgio's art is depressing and makes you feel lonely because a lot of the space is not being used and is very empty. It looks like if these are actually real places, no one has visited for thousands of years and it is just left the way it was long  time ago. Even in  the second picture they heads of the statues are empty!
