Watch the following video about Picasso. Which painting is your favorite and which is your least favorite and why? Picasso was the founder of the Cubism art movement along with George Braque. Advances in art had been made by the Impressionists (Monet, Renior, Degas) and Post Impressionists (van Gogh, Seurat, Gauguin) to allow room for this new way of painting.

Watch the following video about van Gogh (we also looked at his work last week here on the blog). Enjoy. It's very relaxing.

My favorite painting would have to be van Gogh's because of the way all of his colors and strokes flow together whereas Picasso's work is more block-like.
ReplyDeleteAbout Picasso, I like the paintings with a lot of color and smooth curves. I don't really care for the blank canvases with the pointy-featured figures.

My favorite painting is Van Gogh's because i like the detailed work he did. I am not a big fan of the Cubism that Picasso did because I don't think it flows well and has many bold shapes.
ReplyDeleteI like Van Gogh's painting more because I like how the colors blend and how it looks like there is a story behind the painting.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Picasso painting was the Barefoot Girl because of the creative details, however my least favorite painting of Picasso was the painting of three people that made it look like a family portrait because it was odd and creepy to me. I always loved Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh because of its different shades of blue. It gives the painting a very tranquil feeling.

I can't really choose a favorite, but I really like Picasso's different perspective of the forms of the body and Van Gogh's technique in which causes the colours in his paintings to flow into one another. as a least favorite, I'd have to say Picasso's early work.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is Van Gogh because I think his paintings are generally prettier. I do not really like how Picasso's paintings look. They are too block-like and weird.
ReplyDeleteThe Tee Turley- I like the picasso because she paints it so fast and it is still really good.

ReplyDeletei love the house painting. The colors flow really well together
ReplyDeleteI love the house painting that Van Gogh did because the brush strokes are so defined in his pictures. -Mia Thompson
ReplyDeleteThe time that he put into the painting of the castle is nice. Every detail pops.
