For the picture of my chosen graphic art discipline I have chosen an illustration made my Robin Eisenberg, The image is of a purple woman with only her pants on, she is flossing her teeth in the mirror which is when you realise she has vampire teeth. The image is very surreal showing a mythical creature doing something so normal seems very weird. Showing women as creatures like this is a big part of Eisenberg’s style she very rarely brings out work shows women with natural skin colour.

The second piece of work I am looking at is a fine art piece by Raluca Vulcan it’s a very sketchy piece that shows a woman stretching naked, Vulcan has used lots of colours not keeping within the black outline of the woman. These images both have women in common and not keeping to natural colours. I feel that Vulcan’s work is looking a lot more at the beauty of the natural form women have, whereas Eisenberg looks a lot more at making women look superhuman. This is a recurring theme for a lot of new illustrators who want to make work that praises women to show them as powerful. Vulcan I don’t think is following any feminist themes in her work, although neither of the pieces are obviously showing political themes, I feel like Eisenberg looks to build women up in more ways then just celebrating their physical beauty like Vulcan has in her work.
