Kaitlynn Lowrey English 1010 Professor Hubert de Givenchy As a child I was mesmerized by the classic look of the women in the 1940's-1950's. Some would say I wanted to be like them. I dreamed of being like Audrey Hepburn or Jackie Kennedy. Even now I strive to dress like them, but who created these wonderful outfits and dresses I've always admired? His name is Huber de Givenchy. He designed many of the classic designs and style of these women and has inspired me to bring them back to the world…

An unassuming and genial man with a strong affinity for the land, Macqueen was drawn to the undulating landscape of the Darling Downs and to the coastal region adjoining Moreton Bay which provided the principal subjects for his work.

Compared with the lives of many artists, Algernon Newton's appears at first sight comparatively straightforward and uneventful. A long, successful and steadily productive career spanning the best part of fifty years, a second marriage of great stability and of equal duration would seem to find…

painting. The different paints seem as if they swirl within each other, especially in the water and sky. Pattern: Pattern is more clear through the way the work was painted, as opposed to obvious repetitive patterns. The work loosely reminds me of Vincent Van Gogh's works.
