Diana Beltran Herrera is an inspiring artist to me because
of her ability to craft the fine details of birds using only paper. Her ability to portray a moment when a bird
is flying is really extraordinary to me. She has had exhibitions around the world in
Art and Soul of Paper and Beers. Lambert Contemporary. It is obvious that she loves birds and that
she has an exceptional talent in making birds from paper. The colors of the birds are vibrant and make
the birds look like their full of life, even abstract because some of the birds
are really bright colored. However, the
birds look very precise and the craftsmanship Diana displays is well
planned.
The
birds show movement that is realistic and they appear to be weightless, which
helps me to think about how I can make my senior seminar project for idealized.
I would like to create a self-portrait that is realistic, but has qualities
that are not typical of a normal human structure to portray a concept. I am intrigued by the way Diana Beltran
Herrera can do this with her birds made of paper. In essence, Diana makes these birds that look
like their modeled after real birds, but they have a touch of non-realistic
color which adds to the immediate visual excitement I get when I see them.
