That may be partly because he specialized in the relatively modest medium of watercolor. But more important, unlike, Georgia O'Keeffe, he was not a strong image maker. But it is his sophisticated play with abstraction and the process of painting rather than imaginative vision or emotional resonance that distinguishes his art. Examining Marin’s paintings shows the amazing imaginative range and technical spontaneity that Marin brought to etchings, oils, and especially watercolors — which comprise 80% of his known works. Marin’s highly individual style was a combination from the precedents of Paul Cézanne, German Expressionism, and early Cubism.

Those images are evident in the first two lines of the poem, where the avenue "bends with the trolley tracks and stops, cut off." We already can see that Flick's future is becoming completely different. The word "cut off" is the key to understanding Flick's situation. This expression probably means that Flick’s life has changed a lot. Without anything, his status changed from a famous basketball player to a sad poor hardworking gas station man.
The answer, he’s not really sending one at all. Kehinde only paints the pictures. The message or hidden meaning as it may be called weather it is in the title or in the background is picked by the sitter in every painting not by Kehinde himself. By being completely non objective in his work Kehinde allows the viewers to explore new possibilities with the meaning of his art, and he seems to always be a step ahead of those investigating his methods. It’s one of the many reasons why people believe Kehinde’s art will remain popular and will not be lost in history as time passes us
In the passage from the book Cannery Row by John Steinbeck, there are two very equal length paragraphs that have two very different tones of how the speaker describes the main character Henri. The whole purpose of Steinbeck to write these two paragraphs in the first place was to build the character of Henri. Though henri is known for his french paintings, he lacks time to make a masterpiece, he actualy has never been to france and actualy doesnt even have a talent for painting. Rather, he is a skilled boat builder who has dedicated himself to sculpturing such shapes out of wood. Steinbeck uses many techniques throughout the entire passage to build such character, such as making both paragraphs just an entire juxtaposition, though the author
Seurat is able to portray such a great deal of control that allows people to easily forget all the noise that comes with being outdoors in a park. His focus and commitment to this painting shows that not one thing was left undone or
It is not a coloured painting with too much going on which gives the reader no time to pass judgement on the man in the picture. The eye was not drawn to one thing in the painting, in fact, all of the different aspects of the ad itself make the painting more effective. The pieces by themselves would lose the emotional connection to the reader. The fact that the colors and lines work so well together further your connection to Whitman as a human being without the nature around him, he would not have much of an effect. You take the painting for what it is because it shows natures indistinct lines and natural
This style was originally controversial and opposing artists thought of impressionists as not skilled with incomplete works. However, the pursuance of being in the exact moment, light was skillfully placed to give radiance from the sun and reflections were realistic enough to give you the time of day the scenery took place. This can explain why it was more effective for artists to capture their subjects in the great outdoors. The incompleteness was rather helpful in achieving an instant vision and was done by using primary colors without blending. In order for this style to be clarified artists used short brush strokes, dotting and smearing techniques.
According to Mc Cloud, “This 182 plate sequence of collages is widely considered as masterpiece of 20th century art, but no art history teacher would ever dream of calling it “Comics” (364)! Mc Cloud means Max Ernest’s collage novel “A week of kindness,” is much educated to ever be described as a Comic for an art teacher’s students to learn. For example, Ernest’s plates shows. First, a big surreal image of a man with animalistic wings on his back, while he kisses a woman. Both are not standing on a floor instead on a flood of water.
It is governed by some innate temperamental bias that cannot be diagrammed"( Cather 142-143). Cather said that although there was no need to have another Madame Bovary written, it was well done and was well received. Many authors could not manage to write and publish a novel on such a controversial subject, especially one that had been covered by the French already, but Mrs. Chopin certainly did. Cather also comments on Chopin's writing style, she almost excuses anything that did not meet the critics standards by saying that every writers style is different and that once in a while one will write an excellent book from a very debatable subject that can be accepted among other writers and
