Gèricault and Turner


Hello partners!
I'm going to talk about my two favourite artists: Thèrodore Gericault and Joseph Mallord William Turner. In one hand, Gèricault is a romantic artist, but he has a lot of influence about neoclasicism. That element is showed in the way of the positions of the bodies and his color. There are also a particular way to look the atmosphere. Gericault show to us a singular situation like a glorious event, typical of the Neoclasicism's ideas.  But the sky and the theme of something very deepest and sentimental make this paint in a Romantical tendence.
 Joseph Mallord William Turner is a interesting artist, because in the beginning his painting follow a neoclasical line, but with the years and the practice, he reached an extraordinary development and explored his own technique, making his painting more exciting and sentimental and not to cold as the typical clasicism.


So I invite you to know this fabolous artist and view his work and discuss about them!!

See you later,  goodbye!

My favourite picture

Let's talk about my favourite picture. It's an urban landscape and it was taken by myself. I was walking in the street when suddely I look up to the sky and I remember it was so beatiful. The clouds were full of pretty magical colors. The sky was between red, orange and yellow and the clouds were like cotton.
So I decide to take a picture to save that scenary to make it unforgettable. I took that picture in November of 2010, in twilight time. I like this picture because I don't have in my plans to make a photo-session, but the dusk motive me to take my digital camera and take a lot of pictures to the sky and his reflection in the river. After that, everytime that the sky is specially beatiful, I take my camera and took photos.
The place in normal time is very ugly, but magically with the natural effect of the warm sunlight appears an opossitive landscape. It's a strange kind of magic to transform something normal in something special.

Now I don't have the picture that I'm talking about, but I can show it to all of you soon as possible.
                                                                                                      That's all.   Goodbye.
         

My favorite piece of technology

Let's talk about my favorite piece of technology. It is an older Kodak digital camera, it was gave to me when I was 16 years old like a birthday present, and I was so glad with that present. I took a lot of photographies with it: A lot of photos of birthdays, holidays, Christmas and a lot of another special conmemorations. Now that camera helps me to freeze beatiful moments of the mothernature effects, for example, when the clouds are full of water and the sky look very different, or when the waves of the sea crushes with the rocks of teh coast. In conclusion, I use the technology to watch much better to the nature.

Drawing

Drawing is the action of watch and draw the object that you are interested. First at all, you must be very careful with every details that the object have in himself. This process is very slow and needs a lot of patience and dedication. With the help of your own skills, maybe you can discover the secrets of a real drawing and you can be a great imaginary person. For example, you can find inspiration on beatiful moments with your family or friends and make a painting based in that moment. As the same way, you can make a lot of speed drawings to capture a important  historic moment to the society, like the election of a new president in your country or the visit of a someone very important. In the way of creativity, talent, imagination and patience, you can be an amazing artist!
