Mastercard Commercial

I had a lot of fun with this little video:

All the supplies shown are for an oil painting class I am taking at the Neil Balkwill Centre taught by Jack Anderson, who is a local artist here in Regina. The "masterpiece" is one of the paintings I created in this class. It is inspired by a photo of my little brother's eye. I love the hazy/fogginess it has, I think it gives it a sense of mystery and intrigue. Here is the photo:


In an attempt to make a somewhat authentic Mastercard commercial, I searched YouTube for some videos and came across this one (it made me smile): "We Want the Funk"

  1. Wonderful images...I particularly liked the Mastercard logo at the end. Are these your photos? The fact that you searched youtube for examples is a great way to start. Well done.

  2. Yes, I took these photos yesterday specifically for this project (mostly because I wanted some unity). I even painted the logo with my $30 oil paints, $2 canvas board, and $4 paint brush. :)
