Francis Bacon: a lot of his paintings are very messy/violent. They have a lot of emotion and movement in them]]> 2019-10-30 14:59:36 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404496420 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404497392 I grew up looking at his paintings in dance classes. I feel that he does an amazing job at really showing true ballerinas.]]> 2019-10-30 15:00:48 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404497392 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404497397 EDWARD HOPPER is a realistic artist who uses blending strategies to paint. His paint elements are related to life. The light and shadow constraint in his paintings is spectacular. I used to copy his paint in order to get known how his brushworks works in my high school.]]> 2019-10-30 15:00:48 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404497397 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404498124 She solely creates self portraits which I think is really interesting. - Sophia]]> 2019-10-30 15:01:42 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404498124 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404498208 2019-10-30 15:01:48 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404498208 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404498596 I grew up hearing about Frida Kahlo both at home and in school. I think that her work is interesting because she made it so personal. She added more realistic and surrealistic components to her artwork. She also had disabilities and was of poor health since she was young, so for her to paint and continue to do artwork is really inspiring.

The kiss was the first painting I saw that I loved.

I also like the way Andy Warhol uses bright colors that are not typical to realistic images. -Becca ]]> 2019-10-30 15:03:42 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404499672 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404499782 She was one of the first artists that I found that challenged the beauty standards while also being able to draw you into the world around her.]]> 2019-10-30 15:03:50 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404499782 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404500497 avant-garde isn't it. Interpretion can be variable from person to person. "In selecting the urinal, his message was clear: Art is something you piss on."

I particularly enjoy his piece ‘Poop Park’, which was done today in class. I connect to this piece because it is all over the place, but still manages to look as if it all goes together, which lowkey is my life. ]]> 2019-10-30 15:04:44 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404500671 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404500797 Abstract works of art usually with a fantasy setting ]]> 2019-10-30 15:04:55 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404500797 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404500937 His combination of light and shadow is impressive.

I was captivated and ended up just staying looking at the sculpture for a half hour straight. There’s something really mesmerizing about her work. ]]> 2019-10-30 15:05:20 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404501109 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404501121 I love this painting, something about it just pulls me in.    ]]> 2019-10-30 15:05:21 UTC https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404501121 https://padlet.com/summertimefun218/h01tdraki7l8/wish/404501622 Sistine Chapel by Michelangelo 

I love this artist’s artwork in general, but I saw the chapel in person and it just so overwhelmingly beautiful and amazing.
