]]> Comment on Nicolas Poussin: The Judgment of Solomon by ben http://artandcritique.com/nicolas-poussin-the-judgment-of-solomon/comment-page-1/#comment-1065 ben Thu, 29 Sep 2011 21:29:20 +0000 http://artandcritique.com/?p=417#comment-1065 Poussin's work is remarkable indeed. I like his balanced approach to composition. I think studying his use of color and composition is useful in graphic design. Poussin’s work is remarkable indeed.

]]> Comment on Leonardo da Vinci: The Last Supper by ben http://artandcritique.com/leonardo-da-vinci-the-last-supper/comment-page-1/#comment-1064 ben Thu, 29 Sep 2011 21:25:06 +0000 http://artandcritique.com/?p=619#comment-1064 Sometimes we over analyze the works of the artists. That's just what we do. I'm sure all of those things we conceptualize about in Da Vinci's painting, and trying to dissect it to bits and pieces, were intended by the artist, nevertheless it is fun to do. Truth be told when Da Vinci himself comes back from the dead and explains his art to us. Sometimes we over analyze the works of the artists. That’s just what we do.

Not bad. I'm a fellow artist from your neck of the woods. Perhaps you would consider creating paintings that are similar to your surroundings, to bring awareness of the immediate need for reconstruction of Detroit? I have some ideas if you are interested, I however do not have the time to make such art. Your paintings style is considerably close to that of Frida Kahlo. Not bad.

El Greco was always a bit of a maverick - perhaps he found the idea of a confused and disordered heaven somewhat amusing! Very interesting insights….

]]> Comment on Vincent van Gogh: Wheatfield with Crows by Tamara http://artandcritique.com/vincent-van-gogh-wheatfield-with-crows/comment-page-1/#comment-1045 Tamara Fri, 26 Aug 2011 05:13:59 +0000 #comment-1045 This is one of my favorite paintings of all time. I think it is a painting foreshadowing van goghs death. It is a painting of what would happen around him when he died... His suicide plan was to sit in the middle of a sunflower field and shoot himself--the bang would scare the crows and they would fly away (hence the place of them in the painting) and the road represents the long journey of life and the weather represents turmoil/choas/disturbance. The paintings perspective is of someone looking at the field from a distance while van gogh shot himself. It definately is a master piece. I love your analysis of it, very in depth :) This is one of my favorite paintings of all time. I think it is a painting foreshadowing van goghs death.
