Robyn O'Neil

Known for her graphite drawings is Robyn O'Neil, American artist from Nebraska. Her pieces range in the emotions they convey from hopeful, to straight up scary. Many of her drawings include men in black suits, reminding one of a cult.




The first drawing gives off an eerie and dark vibe. It may be the pile of humans (most likely dead), or the looming line of dark trees in the background. O'Neil does a good job of giving the viewer a sense of depth, making objects in the foreground bigger and farther apart.




The second drawing is interesting. It gives the viewer a sense of danger or hostility. It seems as if the people in this picture are fighting, but I'm not quite sure who is fighting who. You can also see a group of people in the background. The bare trees makes me believe that this takes place in the winter time. Maybe they are all seasonally depressed and that's why they're fighting each other (kidding).




I'm not sure I understand this picture. The drawing of the horse is well executed, including detail and shading. However, I'm not sure what is going on when we get to the horse's head. It seems to be in a cloud, more specifically, a rain cloud, or a cloud of a storm of some sort.
