Georges Seurat The creator of Pointillism was born December 2, 1859 in Paris, France. Seurat’s first introduction and art lesson were introduced by his uncle. In 1875 he began attending attending a local art school, and started his first formal art lessons under sculptor Justin Lequien. Then he started training under artist Henri Lehmann when he attended École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in 1878 to 1879. However, Seurat choose to leave the school and continue to study on his own. He was very…

After my first glance, I knew something about this painting was different. Was it the subject matter? Perhaps it was the unusual use of color. Paul Gauguin’s “Tahitian Women on the Beach” is a very complex piece of art. It took quite a bit of observation on my part to pin down exactly what caused such a strong reaction. I consider myself to be quite creative, but when it comes to art, I am at a loss. This painting features a Tahitian landscape with two women in it. The women are sitting on a…

Josh Way Professor Jo-Ann Campell GRA-K131 - Digital Photography 12 May 2016 Peter Lik “Panoramic Landscape Master” I found it quite a difficult task to find a photographer that would inspire me, beyond just one photograph, but with an entire portfolio. Since I’ve taken photographs, on and off, with varying degrees of amateur equipment for the past ten years, time and time again, I’ve always been drawn to bright colors, landscapes, and water. So with this project, I wanted to find a…

Vincent van Gogh was born on March 30, 1853 in Groot-Zundert Netherlands. His father Theodorus van Gogh was a minister. His mother Anna Cornelia Carbentus was a moody artist whose love of nature, drawing and watercolors was transferred to her son Van Gogh. Gogh was born exactly one year after his parent’s first son also named Vincent but he was stillborn. When Gogh was 15 his family was poor so he had drop out of school and start work. He worked for his uncle Cornelis ’at his art dealership.…

Historically, we have witnessed some fantastic artworks which revolved around the beauty of flowers such as Vincent Van Gogh's "Irises" and Jan Davidz de Heem's "Vase of Flowers". Another work of art that based on flowers is Biser Lapev's "W19" that has compelled me to review it. The subject within this oil painting is a mug, that is placed in the centre, occupied by sunflowers and daisies. Attention is drawn directly to the subject by the usage of contrasting colours. The subject is…

The most well-known Post-Impressionist painter, Vincent van Gogh, paints most of his paintings when he is in an asylum. As absurd as it seems, van Gogh paints his most known painting, Starry Night, in a mental hospital (Harmon). From the fact that he lives in a mental hospital, people deduce that van Gogh does not have the happiest life. He is often depressed and does not know how to express himself. However, he finds freedom in painting. He paints many different subjects during his life time…

Another similar painting done by Derain titled “Winding Road L’ Estaque” has some differences, but in many ways is similar to “The Trees”. The medium of this work is oil on canvas and is 4'2.5" feet in length by 6'4.5" feet in width. Derain went about painting this image in a way that is stylized because the objects in the image are painted in Derain’s perspective and are not naturalistic in nature. Although some of the figures are abstract, they are all representational and are recognizable.…

Between 1986 and 1987, during the Modern Art period, Chuck Close created a 100 x 84 in. painting called Lucas I. It depicts fellow artist Lucas Samarasdepicts. The elements of design in this piece are color and shape. Up close the color in this painting is very different than if you were looking at it from a distance. From the look of the man’s face and the overall color and impression that it gives me, it gives a neutral or slight serious feeling to it. The colors are dark and cool and a…

He the "speaker" describes that while he is sitting there listening to a lecture of astronomer. He sees the evidence and accurate information on the columns before his eyes, as the diagrams and charts that he has to have analyzed mathematically. At the end of the astronomer lecture, everyone in the room applauded the astronomer. While he the speaker goes to the lecture room because he started, feeling exhausted and worn out. His mind wandered away, he the speaker looks up into the night sky…

Created by Vincent Van Gogh during the Post Impressionism movement, The Starry Night is one of Gogh’s most acclaimed paintings. His sheer brilliance of artistic talent is pleasantly conveyed to the viewer through a beautiful colour scheme and perfectly layered brushstrokes. The Starry Night is a mesmerizing visual expression of Gogh’s tortured emotional and spiritual state expressed through an imaginative and dramatic canvas. From the provided visual , I have observed…
