Light of Ration from Art-Classicism Oil Painting


Once referring art, we always think of romanticism, freedom, and sensitivities. Artists on our mind are romantic people; they usually do something as they like at any time including their art creation. It is seemingly that art has no business with ration. However, it is no doubt that there exists a ration period in art history. Yes, it is during the seventeenth to the nineteenth century; it is always called Age of Reason. At that time, even oil painting was painted depend on quite serious blue print.
Classicism oil paintings are focused on form and drawing technique. Before this period, artists often gave their creations elements as they wanted. Although there were various schools of oil painting, it was hard to find structured things in these artworks. Here I don’t have the purpose to say anything negative to other genre oil paintings. I just want to emphasize what is the most outstanding characteristic on classicism oil painting. Of course, rational outline and clear lineal can be easily found in classicism artworks. When get used to the random features, appreciating to a classicism work is enjoyable sake for you.
Maybe you like unchained art rhythm; but adding some ration color to art seems not bad. Attraction of mixture of ration and art is irresistible; that’s why classicism oil painting is still popular.

Inevitable Attraction that You Can't Resist-Renaissance Oil Painting


Like technology and science, art is developing on the road of history; but the pace of art seems quite slow and quiet for art is something originated from mind and soul, for it doesn't has a quick application in human society. Oil painting is an important member of art family. During the progress of genre oil painting, we can hardly find sharp traces as Technological Revolution. Just as a mild streamlet, oil painting is floating in peace. Undergoing several styles altering, essence of oil painting still exists. Being lonely in the modern society, more art lovers are searching for soul consolation from eternal Renaissance oil painting.
Although lots of people is fascinated by modernism oil paintings, charming of Renaissance oil painting never disappears. Exquisite stroke by stroke has ever been carved by brilliant masters several centuries before; even if we can only appreciate these masterpieces in museums or exhibitions, spirit they bring us never fade. It is difficult to say which more valuble between modern and Renaissance is; nevertheless, a famous auction may reveal something true. Not long before, the most authentic oil painting has come out, it is Munch's Scream; sold for more than one hundred million US dollars, it has become the most expensive painting in history. But no one knows how much Mona Lisa worth for, because no one looks it as a commodity.
Perhaps I prefer Renaissance oil painting on my mind. While I don't think some day people would auction Renaissance oil paintings in Louvre or on the vault of Sistine Chapel.

Comparison between Reality and Art-Images in Oil Painting

As an art lover, I have seen quantities of art works. Oil painting is my favorite art style. I'd like to study the color, hue, composition and images in Oil paintings. Peerless artists create their great paintings leading by intuition of their own conception on art and the inspiration from the reality. Each of the oil paintings is the crystallization of its painter's hardworking; each detail of genre oil painting is undergone a serious progress, especially the choice of images. Image can be considered as the soul of a painting. The decision on it is essential.
Choice of image is not like writing of an essay; it has no settled theme or title. Artists always have the idea on their art work in the first period after they experienced something unforgettable or impressed by some amazing nature scenery. When they have the ideal of oil painting, they usually have an impression from the reality on their mind. To achieve a completed art work, they have to shape the proper image for the art creation. Once the image is decided, the whole composition of the painting is set up. Then he can complete his painting stroke by stroke. Although the images we see are not alike its stereotype in reality, they are sublimations from reality indeed.
Images in oil painting may seem absurd, abstract and amazing; but they can be found in our everyday life. Perhaps that's why viewers would be moved by art, for elements in art are trifles around them.

Altering between Light and Shadow-Recognition about Hue in Oil Painting

Change of light in nature is variable. We can’t catch the tracks of light. On an afternoon of summer, we like to lie in a comfortable chair under the shade of a big tree; while we are enjoying the cool feeling the shade brings us, spots of sunlight spark on the ground. We like shadow when it is too bright; we like light when it is in dark. Alternation between light and shadow in nature is spontaneous; it is surprising that every alternation of light is satisfied to people. Artists are sensitive to this; therefore the light and shade are always focused on their oil painting creation. Artists are pursuing for the perfect melting of light and shade; they want to convey the most natural alternation between light and shade just as what in nature. Many art masters, such as Paul Cezanne, Vincent van Gogh and etc, paid great attention to light of hue change.Monet is also a marvelous controller of light; he was always observing the change of light day by day. Monet was almost captivated by the nature light; he also brought his experience into his prominent impressionism oil painting for his great oil paintings were usually in a series. Oil painting is some kind of essence rooted from nature and art. Either artists or art lovers recognize the magic alternation between light and shade in hue.

Conventional or Modern-Thought on American Oil Painting

Once we talk about America, we will easily think of modernism, high-tech and vanguard. Therefore it is hardly to think of something conventional especially in the aspect of oil painting. During more than two hundred year’s history, the United States created quantities of prominent contributions for human being. It is a young but super powerful country. Despite of its advanced development is every aspect of life; we always neglect art development there. In fact, from the time the United States set up, art and artists has been developing silently; there are quite many wonderful oil paintings as well. Mentioning art in the USA, normal people may take it as modern and absurd for granted. Only these authentic art lovers and serious criticizers can tell you that there are several great American artists who feature in classical art style. For instance, John Singer Sargent is one of the earliest artists in America. He is regarded as the “leading portrait painter in his generation” for his excellent portrait oil paintings in Grand Manner. He had also made his name in Europe. Besides John Singer, Norman Rockwell is another outstanding artist. His artworks can be looked as local American art with a reflection on American culture. Norman Rockwell has influenced a whole century during art history. All in all, if we want to be austere art lovers, we should appreciate art works around the world. Even modern America has conventional oil painting.

Today I suddenly think of many things which happened before. More than twenty years has past in my life. My youth is going away silently. It is so cunning that it has witted all the process that how I spend my childhood and my adolescence without a word. It left me alone without destination.

Pamper Imagination on Life, Nature and Art-Some Thought about Oil Painting

Almost each of us has ever dreamed of being a painter. It is no difficult to understand that why we admire of excellent painters and even ourselves want to be painters. Because we all have unforgettable memories and deep impressive trifles on mind; these previous enjoyments of mental will flash into our mind at times bringing surprise and inspiration to us. Therefore we have a strong desire to keep an authentic record of them. It is a pity that not all of us have the gift or the ability to put down them but real artists can. They can easily transfer what are touched into art style such as oil painting. Although there are various styles of art, oil painting can be regarded as an outstanding one. Oil paintings can be created as long as there are pigments, brushes and canvas. When an easel is set up on a river bank or in an open prairie, it suggests the artist has the sense of art creating. Nature is best tutor to artists; it gives the most primitive and innocent inspiration to artists. Life is the touchstone for artists; it brings basic material of creation. An eligible artist is like a emissary from the God for he can alter the decree from nature and society to the populace. In a word, oil painting is originated from life and nature; and it is the reflection on life and nature in an sublimated manner.

The Liberation from Stillness- Les Oiseaux Oil Painting

Although I have been an adult for several years, I haven’t enjoyed the pleasure of mature more. Instead, I find my troubles coming one by one gradually. These troubles never appeared in my childhood and teenager time. I want to return to my old good times. I feel depressive, and I want a blue sky which I can fly with freedom just like one oil painting I saw last week. It is Les Oiseaux, which is painted by Henri Matisse. Henri Matisse is one of the most representative fauvism artists. As a French painter, inevitable romantic characteristics are full of his art works. As we all know, strong and sensitive feeling of color is the most obvious feature of fauvism oil painting from visual abstract. Matisse’s color is changeable and proper in his creations. He seemingly has a unique intuition on pigment. He is a Jack of all trades in fauvism art creation; besides painting, he has made great contribution on sculpture, printing and etc. His paintings are of all styles. He can make his colors as lumps; he can make his color wrathful with him; he can also make his color break out from peace, such as his Les Oiseaux. Les Oiseaux, which means sky in English, is a lucid and lively oil painting. A line of birds are flying in the azure blue sky. They are likely flying to a free and merry realm. I am eager to flying with them badly. I think it’s time to release myself.

Wrath of Color-Fauvism Art Oil Painting

These days I have been addicted into changeable colors. Every day, I am sitting at my office desk to do a lot of trifle things one by one. I always feel dull and even irritated. I think my life is so machine-parse like, no better than the changeless objects in still life oil paintings. They at least have wonderful color and exquisite outline while I merely have pale hue in my life. I am badly eager to altering into some kind of life full of passion with all kinds of activities. I want the life filled in colorful things which can release depression, misery, and sorrow. It should be featured in a sense as what infauvism oil painting -passionate, bold and a little exaggerating. I love fauvism oil painting for its hue, its expressive force, its unchained composition. Fauvism artists always have rare intuition on color; their usage of color is the most important technique in art creation. Sometimes they are used to choose heavy and strong pigment to convey their conception of creating. Strong color is commonly appearing in fauvism art works and it is more obviously to grasp the notice, but it is not the key of fauvism. Expression of color properly is the real key. For example, in Henri Matisse's Les Oiseaux, there isn't any heavy color in it; just a azure blue background and a line of flying white birds. Bold but not exceedingly abreacted, colorful but not chaos, zeal but not crazy, is the feeling fauvism oil paintings bring to viewers. In fauvism art, the wrath of color burst in peace as usual.

Bold Rhythm of Life-Nature Color in Oil Painting


It is the last several days of May. Walking in the beautiful coastal city in this season, uncountable splendid flowers blossoming are smiling to pedestrians. Jade green groves are making up the bright-colored flowers still further lovely and outstanding. Especially after a rain fall, everything seems to be in a much fresher and clearer state. Such gorgeous and natural color is just like great master's oil painting, likewise, great master’s spontaneous color in the oil painting originated from nature. Quite many artists are good at dominating color, nevertheless, hardly one can release color just as flower which transfers message from colorful season.
Except for Vincent van Gogh, who is considered as an enthusiast of art and color. Van Gogh loves nature, loves earthy life, loves all kinds of colors. He has an awesome passion on art creating, a peerless observation ability on nature even every detail in nature, a stunning soul devoted to painting. Normal people can see and enjoy changeable colors in nature; normal artists can grasp and depict amazing colors in nature; but only Vincent Van Gogh, who is a nearly crazy color lover can liberate these colors and express them in his oil paintings exceedingly. His style seems rough usually at the first glance, but soon you will be addicted into his color world. There you can feel vivid lives, unchained melody and your bold soul.
We love Van Gogh not only for his brilliantimpressionism oil painting, but also for his pure and innocent soul which is the closest to angel. Although sleeping underground for already hundreds of years, Van Gogh lovers feel they live with him always.

The Reflection of Childhood-Children Oil Painting


Yesterday I saw a very lovely oil painting in the house of one of my friends. It is a reproduction of Paul Cezanne’s oil painting The Boy in the Red Vest. The boy in the painting is a teenager. He is in deep thought of something with his elbow putting on the table supporting his head. I find myself at that age from the perplexed expression from his eyes. I threw myself into a memory on my boyhood in that time. It is a unforgettable time to stir. And I admire of the expressive force of the artist.
The Boy in the Red Vest is a post-impressionism oil painting painted in 1888. Its painter, Paul Cezanne is a well-known French artist featured in post-impressionism style peered with Vincent Van Gogh. His greatest contribution is laying the foundation of the alternation from the nineteenth century conception of artistic endeavor to a brand new world of the twentieth century. He created many children paintings. The images in his paintings mostly seem quiet and peaceful, which gives viewers a reverie of the childhood of themselves. Therefore the copies and reproductions of his children oil painting are very popular among the populace.
I think I need to appreciate morechildren oil paintings of Cezanne for I have been at the age of recalling of my boyhood. Maybe I should have such an oil painting in my study.

An Attractive Oil Painting Full of Ranks of People


I have ever seen an oil painting entitled The Night Watch; the most impressive feature of it is the quantities of people from all walks, and nearly each of them is shaped likeness. It is a famous genre painting out of the seventeenth century of Dutch Baroque style. Its painter is Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, who is regarded as one of the greatest painters and printmakers in European art history. He devoted himself into art creation of Baroque style. This oil painting is one of the most representative oil paintings of Baroque style.
This baroque oil painting is the height of Rembrandt van Rijin’s career. Painted in 1642, the colossal painting is a commissioned group portrait of a militia company. This portrait oil painting conventionally depicted their members in concise row or at a banquet. However, from the artist’s version, the prosaic subject is made into dynamic art painting; with its dramatic action, the conventions of traditional portraiture are overturned. The Night Watch conveys the captain of the guard as he is the leader of the yellow-cladlieutenant in rounding up the uniformed ranks.
It is surprising that every image is depicted so vivid. It is really an authentic likeness oil painting.

Real or Fantasy-Landscape in Art Oil Painting


Pure and beautiful landscape  is always the oil painting subject of all kinds. Classicism landscape oil painting characterizes for its likeness; pointillism artworks are focused on romantic charm; fauvism painting shows its expressive force of color; abstract art conveys alternative aesthetic in unique manner. Usually landscape work is not difficult to understand no matter of what style it is. Because art work of this subject comes from nature, where is nearly not influenced by human society. Nature is always the origination of inspiration for artists. Almost all the artists can resist magic power of nature. This power stems from the most mysterious place where beings start.
When appreciate a landscape painting, viewers may try their best to think over where the amazing scene it is at first. Then, if they are patient and continue to try to figure out the painting's connotation, they will be addicted in the fairy atmosphere which the artist shaped in the oil painting. Therefore, to guess where the nature scenery has little meaning; what sense the painting brings is of great significance. Take Van Gogh 's creation for instance, the scenery in his paintings are mostly from the rural district he has ever lived even without name. But the most attractive thing is the artistic conception it gives you; as to the stereotype, it may not has such exceeding charming. Perhaps you will be desperate when you have a trip to a place where has been in a famous landscape painting.
Above all, to distinct from reality and fantasy seems misery. But in fact, reality is reality; it can't be a fairy land as what is in landscape oil paintings. However, landscape oil painting is some kind of sublimation from real nature scenery base on artists' worshipping of nature.

Musing in a Hot and Dry Summer’s Day-Still Life Oil Painting


More than a third of May  has been past, and the weather goes hotter and hotter. I can control my temper sometimes for the damp and hot atmosphere after a quick rain fall. My heart and my body both feel irritated; therefore I should find some way to calm down myself. Since listening, reading and napping without help, I began to read randomly. It was a still life oil painting by Paul Cezanne, which attracted me at the first glance. I thought it was an enjoyment in visual and it brought me stillness and beauty of peace in the dysphoria early summer.
The magic oil painting is Pears on a Chair, which was painted in 1882. Paul Cezanne painted a period when he was just attempting to make sense of impressionism’s implications for art creating and its applicability for his own career. A pear on a Chair as a post-impressionism oil painting has a nearly perfect composition in Cezanne’s special distinctive manner. This outstanding character made an influential philosopher considered it as “patient hatchings”. Appreciating it carefully, we will be fascinated in its charming vague outline and compatible color. It seems very simple either its lineal or its composition. But no one can resist its attractive force.
The burning hot summer is coming; I am going to buy an oil painting reproduction of Pears on a Chair.

Beauty of Non-mainstream-Images in Cubism Oil Painting


Yesterday I threw myself into a mediation on Pablo Picasso' famous oil painting The Weeping Woman. Although I am not a serious art criticizer, I've found special pattern of beauty by Picasso. Distinct from beauty of conventional conception, images in cubism oil paintings even can be looked as ugly for the first glance. The warped lineal and outline, the exaggerated expression and posture, the exceeding gorgeous color and hue...all the abnormal looking element of such style paintings not only make up ugliness and uncomforted in the surface, but also conveys primitive and innocent beauty.
Pablo Picasso and Georges Baroque found cubism movement together. And this movement had a great influence on nearly every field of art including painting, sculpture, literature, music and so on. Just like The Weeping Woman oil painting, images are always distorted, analyzed and re-assembled in absurd art form which can't be understood directly. The most distinctive characteristic of cubism is the spontaneous interpenetration of the background and objects. They always seem in one integrated mass.
Cubism oil painting has the most strongly expressive force among all the cubism art genres. No matter the women with all kinds of expressions or the geometrical color lump in these oil paintings has inevitable attraction. Filled with surrealism elements, charming of cubism art should be realized bit by bit.

Broken Heart of a Woman-Weeping Woman Oil Painting


Never there is an oil painting like The Weeping Woman can have the strong and fierce expressive force which shakes every viewer’s nerves. The Weeping Woman is a cubism oil painting painted by Pablo Picasso in 1937. The woman image of this painting is Dora Maar, who is said to be one of Picasso ’s long-term lovers. Her life experience is quite complex and confused. She lived with Picasso for more than ten years. And she has been a photographer and very active in lots of parties and activities. Her goal is to be an outstanding professional painter. She has did great endeavor all her life long.
The oil painting depicts a weeping woman’s face in exaggerated and odd manner. The color and hue of it seem gorgeous and bright. The woman in the painting is weeping so badly that her face is distorted; her eyes, nose, and lips are all in exceedingly gay colors. For the first glance, most of viewers would feel uncomfortable of its abnormal shapes. Pablo Picasso has his own unique art technique and character. From The Weeping Woman we find that, Picasso shaped an ugly image to express real beauty. It is no doubt that every viewer finds the beauty from his excellent cubism art works.
The weeping woman in the oil painting is so touched that each of us can feel her broken heart. I think it is the fascinating of Picasso’s art, extraordinary, exaggerated but deep from soul.

Unchained Passion to Art-Color in Van Gogh Oil Painting

Most art lovers have interest in Van Gogh’s sunflower. Color, hue and light in Van Gogh’s oil painting always depicted in violent, bold and passionate manner. He is a prolific artist with quantities of amazing artworks, such as sunflower, wheat field, self portrait and so on. Most of these oil paintings are grouped into series, that is to say, each theme has a series of trivial distinctions. Either art lovers or criticizers are fascinated with his magic color. Although sometimes the color is even lump like, it has unparalleled attraction. Hardly anyone can help his deep love to Van Gogh’s color. Nevertheless Van Gogh’s art creation belongs to Impressionism, there is great difference exists in it. Strong personal motion and expressive force from deep soul make Van Gogh’s oil painting distinct from other impressionism oil paintings. He is not only an artist, but also a gladiator in his life. He is a crazy man and a zeal painter. He throws himself into fanatical art creating with changeable colors and images. He is a worshipper of nature, so he concentrated on keep every sparkling detail on canvas. It is no doubt that every viewer would be attracted and touched by his The Café Terrace on the Place du Forum Arles, which oil painting gives people a fantasy starry night just like a dreamy fairy land. Let’s enter into Van Gogh’s world and feel the unchained passion he brings us from his post-impressionism oil painting.

Reverie of Fluid Landscape-Monet Oil Painting


Landscape oil painting is originated from nature scenery. Most artists are worshipper of nature. They have much deeper sensitive feeling of amazing natural landscape. Therefore, they can get open enlightenment from nature; their authentic and austere love to nature exchange inspiration from nature. Each creation conveys essence of nature and admiration of nature. However, it is not easy to grasp changeable scenery and bring it into oil paintings. Although journey is a simple thing; observation on nature for days, weeks, months, and seasons is not a simple thing.
Quite many artists could stand long time working, but few ones could insist on observing capriccioso nature scenery. Claude Monet did it and devoted himself in viewing and creating restlessly along his life of art. Monet loves to depict irregular change of sceneries in a series of landscape oil paintings. He has never lost his interest in observing nature even a trivial change. His most well-known masterpiece Sunrise, Impression has its twin, that is Sunset. And he also created Water Lilies oil paintings, Haystack oil paintings and so on. They are series; what these artworks featured in is changeable light, shade, and hue. Light and color make up the soul of Monet’s art creations. He is a geek in using light and color.
Having been deserted and criticized ever, Monet himself is like the water lily in his oil painting; always being peaceful and graceful, he keeps his own art conception. With clinging passion, Monet contributes impressionism art eventually and his oil paintings are considered as the most exceeding representative among impressionism oil paintings.

Keep up with Time-the Persistence of Memory Oil Painting

We are always sighing for rapidly fluid time. Without any sense, time flies silently. It takes away nothing and hardly makes any change from our vision. Nevertheless, we will find that our faces no longer rosy; the surface of the favorite cup no longer fine and smooth; our parents no longer healthy...It is seemingly that all the things go changeable great in the twinkling of an eye. A gifted surrealism artist was once sensitive on ruthless time and created an exquisite oil painting focused on such topic. The painting is The Persistence of Memory, and its painter is Salvador Dali.
The Persistence of Memory depicts some images of soft melting pocket watches hanging on the branches of trees. Lots of viewers are supersized and curious at such images. Dali express his opinion on time in surrealism manner oriented on the theory of "softness" and "hardness". And he interpreted this oil painting like this:” The soft watches are an unconscious symbol of the relativity of space and time, a Surrealist meditation on the collapse of our notions of a fixed cosmic order". Although it is an abstract oil painting, viewers can see the connotation of it easily.
Except for this one, Salvador Dali had created several other oil paintings on the theme of time. As a surrealism painter, Dali's oil painting art is not too absurd. He has made great contribution to popular culture.

Abstraction Reflected from Everyday Life-Abstract Oil Painting

Recently I have taken great interest into abstract oil painting art. In fact I haven't been fond of artworks of such style for it always seems absurd and intangible. The color and hue of these oil paintings are usually expressed exceedingly dark or gorgeous; the lineal and outline are frequently in chaos. I couldn't understand such paintings then; sometimes I even felt confused on them. Maybe I was only a fake art lover before I've found a little connotation of abstract art. That is Composition, which is one of Wassily Kandinsky's famous masterpieces.
The first glance at Composition was in a lazy and dull afternoon. A ray of sunshine flashed out at times into the room. I sat by an old desk, struggled with a report which should be handed in as soon as possible. With thinking of nothing useful, I could hardly to continue my task. Feeling complex and even a little despair, I looked around unmindfully. When a picture in an opening book attracts me, it was more disordered than my mind. Staring at its all kinds of chaos in dark yellow, I found something compatible in it. All the vague images became clear and orderly to gather towards a common direction. A fresh idea flashed into my poor brain. I had the solution.
From then on, I am falling into a habit on appreciating abstract oil paintings. That is to say, the entire abstract oil painting artists get their inspiration originated from everyday life. They abstract quintessence from normal things. Without expressive beauty, significance and apperception are the most valuable artistry of abstract oil painting.

Attractive Landscape Oil Painting-Painting Comes from Landscape

We often grasp in an admiration for nature landscape which is so pure, innocent and crystal. Especially when we travel to well-known mountains and great rivers in spare time, they are always praising and sighing for the magnificent natural landscape. Common people will keep the nature beauty they have seen on mind, while painters and artists will keep them on canvas besides keeping it on mind. Therefore, it is considered that landscape oil painting is originated from real landscape; only the painting is undergone a refined art process and expressed in tangible manner. Quite many artists have had great interest in landscape beauty and created lots of heir-loom artworks featured in nature scenery. We have to confirm that our dear nature around us transferring some kind of easy-affected potential power always. Artist is the one who is the most sensitive among the public; according to that, his feeling is much deeper than common people. In addition, artist can certainly alter nature beauty into art beauty because he has such ability and it is his vocation. During art history, several great artists are faithful worshipper of nature, and they can throw themselves into observing and creating without eating and sleeping. We can never know mysterious attraction and power of nature. We can only be tiny worshippers of nature. Let prominent artists to keep nature on their canvas as landscape oil paintings; we can just be viewers on both nature and art.

Sunrise in Amoy-Beauty Compared to Monet's Oil Painting

Every early morning, when the brand new sun opens his eyes, all things on earth wake up substantially. After a whole night 's refreshment of energy, birds begin to try to open their throat; most of flowers show their enviable gorgeous appearance; people set out to carry on their daily plan. Mild and bright sunlight shines over the sea. Of course, there is usually no fog in Amoy, nevertheless, sunrise here is as beautiful as it is in the world famous Sunrise, Impression, which is the most well-known representative oil painting of Claude Monet.
The impressionism painting master gives an enjoyable sense on light and hue to viewers. He would rather leave more conscience than real effect to his art works. Sunrise, Impression depicts a vague and a little chaotic scene to some content, and it is a landscape oil painting of France. Here, what we are fascinated into is sunrise in the most beautiful island city, Amoy. Another kind of beauty of nature is included in sunrise at the seaside city. Along the road which is a circle around the whole island in the early morning, slight breeze and peaceful sea surface will led you to a fairy land without trivial matters.
Sunrise in Amoy brings blessing from nature to every citizen here. It is necessary to take the fine view down as a classical oil painting on canvas. Maybe it doesn't need a painter as Claude Monet, just a obscure painter who can transfer things in his eyes into oil paintings vividly is enough.

Among all the famous oil paintings, some are in quite great size, for example, Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going? by Paul Gauguin.

Stem from such ideal, Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going? came out as a post-expressionism oil painting which seemed peerless. Completed in 1898 perfectly, this amazing painting was initiated by its zeal painter and given to this typical title. Gauguin wanted every viewer to learn the significance of his work.
When had realized the dream of such a fantasy oil painting, Gauguin had tried to have a suicide for his freaking out heart.

Pablo Picasso and his Resounding Cubism Oil Painting


Recently, I have to keep my interest on the great art master, Pablo Picasso and his cubism oil painting. Because after reading lots of passages and news about his amazing art creations, some kind of nameless art charming attracts me from the deep soul. Hardly have I had such feeling on art works before. Of course, there is never lack of Pablo Picasso’s enthusiasts; however, who has studied on the progress on cubism? Thinking over about this art creation, I throw myself into a deep muse on Picasso who I have gotten to learn.
In fact, the term cubism was originated from some negative comment on Picasso’s oil paintings exhibited in the exhibition in Paris of 1908. After the cubism oil painting exhibition in Paris, even Matisse made some mild anti-Picasso words. But when the word cubism came up to face to the world, artists, art critics, and art lovers were all addicted into such a magic art style. And what happened subsequently was quite obvious; Cubism oil painting made a front-page influence on the whole Western art history. Even till now, all of us usually take delight in talking about cubism.
In a conclusion, we can never predict what will happen to a brand new school from Picasso and his oil paintings in cubism manner. It is the same to life; you can hardly enjoy the piquant flavor of mustard only if you insist on tasting it yourself.
