Artists of Influence - Caroline Frumento

 

Caroline Frumento

Caroline Frumento is a freelance artist who primarily works digitally. She has a large online presence and is well liked and looked up to on the online art community. Frumento was inspired from an early age by cartoons and comics, which is portrayed throughout her current artwork to this day. Frumento’s work is often based on her own daily life.

I really enjoy the line work as despite its simplicity it can convey the form in a creative and aesthetic manner. The element of form is created using simple curvy shapes as well as straight lines, the basic line work compliments the basic forms of each object in each artwork. 

Something I really like about Frumento’s work is the use of rough, small lines to convey texture for things like clothing and fur, I believe this adds to her simplistic art style. Pattern is only really used on a recurring character who represents Frumento’s partner! Other than this they are never really shown in her artwork. 

Finally, the element of colour is my favourite part of frumentos work. Frumento uses Saturated colours mixed with alternative tones of the same colour to shade. The colours she uses are very complimentary and go well together. The effect this has, gives the overall artwork a complete feel to it, the colouring gives the pieces a very welcoming aura to them. Each artwork gives me a calm and gentle feeling. Overall, Frumento’s work is peaceful to the eye.
