Week 9-Modernism and Post-Modernism

Claude Monet

1. Outline the intentions of each artist.

To capture the moment. Impressionism wasn't about intentions it was all about capturing the moment. Alsp he uses the plein air to work according to the expression of the natural bright, speaking effectly.
When he paints, he normally uses the water colours, he doesn't use the palette to mix the water colours.
And the subjests that he paints are normally about the natural subjects like flowers, waters like a pictures above.
techniques: Technipues that the artist Claude Monet used are very fine details. For example, his motion of his hand paintbrush are very smoothe and sofe, also the painting shows the free movements. On the painting we cannot see theh thick brush lines. The painter Claude Monet always think his paintings are showing the feeling of him which is Claude Monet's. Monet used quite a limited palette, banishing browns and earth colors on his works.

Quotes:

I did some pastels and I did other pieces in which there was just basically one color per square, and then they would get bigger and I could get 2 or 3 colors into the square, and ultimately I just started making oil paintings. -ttp://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/c/chuck_close.html#ixzz1NoROvm4k

 

I'm very learning-disabled, and I think it drove me to what I'm doing.

2nd is that two painters are normally using the oil paints on canvos and pastels.

3rd they are all fine details on their paints so that we could get a feeling of the painters what they think and how they feel about the paints.

 

5. What are some differences between the artist's work. (at least 3)

Both painters are all great although they uses different painting techniques. Also the subjects are all different. For example, Chuck Close normally paints portraits and Claude Monet paints about the natural landscapes. Finally the biggest difference between two artists are the colour. Claude Monet uses earth tones of colours with out black, although Chuck Close uses all the colours includes black.

 

With two artist are very new to me. I haven't heard about them before I do the blog research. However now I found that they are very great painters and they inspired me some ideas of the works that im doing it at the moment. The works are awsome and interesting.

Chuck close's with a paint brush clamped between his teeth, he developed a new way to paint. Later he has developed a device to hold his hand and brush to paint in the small grid areas. His portraits, the photos and canvases are gridded off by assistants and then he uses the techniques of grisaille and pointillism within the grids.
