Landau concludes the article by reflecting back to the central argument of whether or not “Jackson Pollock is the greatest living painter in the United States”, Landau supports this statement with a resounding yes as she credits him as being the most influential character ever produced in America also referring him to have “virtually singlehandedly brought about the long-awaited aesthetic triumph of America over the centuries-old hegemony of
Also, in terms of style, Roy Lichtenstein’s way to use the strokes really inspired me, and I believe, using visible and heavy strokes is a sign that shows artist’s control on
My approach to art is colorful, well structure and must be well painted. Andy Goldsworthy’s art sculptures has all the above, but what unique about Andy’s art is that they are artificially created. Goldsworthy use natural materials such as brick, leaves, ice, snow, rock and so much more to make his art. Goldsworthy’s sculpture made me recognize that art can be anything you want to be and can also be made out of anything. Two of Goldsworthy’s art that draw my attention are the Storm King Wall and the Rowan leaves and Holes.
Cooper expresses this throughout every single piece, even if it a small detail. The reason I choose Jess Riva Cooper is because of her amazing work experience. Not only was this shown by her knowledge of ceramics, but also her ability to make the clay to something looking very realistic as a human form. Also, the painting really drawn me in her simple modern details is what really inspires me to be an artist like her one day. Throughout my research I have learned a lot about Jess Riva Cooper.
Jackson often critiqued his work saying, “People say his paintings are like [mine]. Well, that’s natural enough. He would have overcome this in time when he started off on his own”(“Fredrick Grant, Artist”). Sir Fredrick Banting’s work can
Without all of these amazing artists, the world of art would be a sad one. They indispensably created the world of art we have today. Those little poseable dolls used for drawing anatomical structure, and the beautiful paintings and murals on the walls of
1). The fact that anyone would compare Jason Pollock’s painting to the a child messing around with a paint brush displays an overall inability to appreciate art. In Pollock’s artwork he creates his paintings by dripping various paints across a wide canvass, the spontaneous mixing that occurs creates the complex symmetry of his painting. Furthermore, Pollock himself has said that he is in control over the content of his painting, thus disproving that he is merely splattering paint at random. Ultimately, Jason Pollock’s artistic style is highly complex and revolutionary, and trying to claim that anyone can recreate his painting by simply splattering paint is purposefully ignoring Pollock’s body of work.
The fact that he had something so precious and valuable but he could not see it in him was disheartening, I read more about his life and how he became known for what he was and who he was as an artist and was intrigued. Pollock refused to color within the lines and I appreciate that about his art, he was a genius, Time magazine dubbing him as “Jack the Dripper”(Getlein 502). His tragic death August 11, 1956, in a drunken driving accident, where he lost control of the vehicle and was thrown fifty feet into a tree that crushed his brain, his life long struggle with mental illness and alcoholism had ended abruptly. Many times Pollock was compared to James Dean; as James Dean was to movies, Pollock was to art. (“Jackson Pollock Biography”)
The Box Pablo Picasso once said, “Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.” I shared this quote with you because I will always keep a box filled with things I have painted. My paintings aren’t very artistic and they don’t even look all that great. However, they are meaningful to me because anytime something bad happens to me, I paint. When I look at the things I have painted I see the things that happened to me.
A paintbrush on a canvas, a pencil on paper, anything that could be used to express feelings. Art is beautiful and versatile, from a variety of mediums to choose from, the sky 's the limit. It is my way of coping with the world, an escape from reality into somewhere where I decide what goes. The colors gliding off, swimming together to become something different in everyones eyes. Art is communication without words, but with the mind.

Artwork is what gives our life much more flavor to it. Life without art would be dull, and lackluster. Everything would be so basic, bare, and simple. Creativity is what really makes artwork amazing. People really enjoy some artists artwork, and are very passionate about it.
This painting has Matisse’s identity tied with it because it represents his individual depiction of the scene. The colors mean something to him but they may have a different meaning to another viewer. If another artist were to draw this,
Pat always was an artist at heart and started drawing at a very young age. He was crafty in his work, but later found his real passion in painting homes. His talent lead him into his career of choice which he took pride in. Pat also found painting to be very therapeutic, calming, and comforting, because he got to enjoy his follow coworkers and be out doors most of the time. He was finally doing what he loved; as well as, being appreciated for his art.
My piece that I chose to stare at for 20 minutes was Gino Severini’s Armored Train in Action. I chose this piece to spend my time at, particularly because of the way the composition is set up so that the train looks like it’s coming right at you, and the way that the artist uses not only tone, but his brush strokes also to create depth in the painting. Severini paints very colorfully and uses lighting and shadow, and if you look closer depending how the thing he is drawing or painting bends or folds, he will keep his brush strokes in that direction to show the bend not only with color but with the strokes in the paint themselves. George Seurat’s brush strokes come a lot to mind when i see them, but more in an organized fashion. Gino Severini was born April 7th, 1883 in Cortona Italy.
