Good luck!
Following on from last week’s ‘Become an Art Critic’ post, I thought we could meet up here to have a discussion regarding the paintings. You can have another look at them here before adding your comments below:
My personal favourite from the ones I posted is number 5 – ‘Starry Night’ by Vincent van Gogh. It depicts a moonlit scene with a large cypress tree in the foreground and a small town in the background. The most noticeable thing is, however, the sky. The artist has used bold, swirling brushstrokes to create a sense of movement. This makes me think that he may have been upset or agitated when he was painting this. The cypress tree in the foreground is buffeted by the wind, perhaps reflecting van Gogh’s own inner turmoil. It is not a calming painting, but I love the colours and the wildness of the swirling starry sky.
Let’s hear your thoughts!
