Art Movement

Impressionism 

"Impressionist painting characteristics include relatively small, thin, yet visible brush strokes, open composition, emphasis on accurate depiction of light in its changing qualities (often accentuating the effects of the passage of time), ordinary subject matter, inclusion of movement as a crucial element of human perception and experience, and unusual visual angles. "  - wiki.

It took me ages to find myself an art movement that really reflects me. I was going for pop art at first, because i liked the whole advertising and quirky art position thingy going on in pop art, but i figured I wanted something more than just that. 

At the end of it, i was stuck between cubism and impressionism. the first thing that really attract my attention to it was the fact that it was art in painting format. I've always liked playing with colors and especially after i picked up watercolor, I prefer most of my art work in paintings. 

Impressionism is mainly about what a person sees and how he sees it in his eyes and put it down into paper and colors. I like how I could do something that leads my emotions onto it rather something that is forced out of me. 


This were the three paintings I came up with because 
I was not really satisfied in the beginning until my last painting. 



I draw this picture out of inspiration through the internet when I was going through a few impressionism paintings in the net. And since it was a task based on our personal self, i again decided to do another girl's  face that represent my gender. :) and roses tells the little feminine side of me and also it is one of my most favorite flower to be given to me (HEHE) 


till then, xx
