There's a book called " Why a Five Year Old Could NOT Have Painted It" (or something like that). It's about modern art and supporting the skill needed to paint a blob, a blue screen and eyes in the wrong place portraits.
I'm not at all familiar with art, or artists, so to be introduced to Paul Klee was interesting. I thought I'd have a go to.
I chose tetradedic complementary colours, a quote from "The Boy, The Mole,The Fox and The Horse" , put on the radio and daubed.
This turned out really well! I started out thinking I would do the building one and then changed my mind to possibly doing this one. I have to find a good phrase though. I haven’t actually started either one yet so you will have to wait to see what I end up with, as will I.
Hmm. I'm afraid that I have to be hit in the head with art for it to make sense to me. On occasion I like to dabble with abstract photos and like the colors and shapes. I do like these colors assembled in this manner. The quote seems to hold true.
@monikozi I probably won't!! @dutchothotmailcom v kind @randystreat I don't get modern stuff at all and tend to think "A child could do that!" @kjarn yup and the artist taking us for a ride, at our expense!! @anniesue I wonder at the symbolism of the blood red? No I don't, just thought it would clash nicely!! @wakelys yup @marlboromaam had to revolve around purple as that was first tube of paint I chose @grammyn Katy you're a busier lady than me, I can sit and do this ( with the hoover and duster hovering nearby to be used another time!!) @jackies365 it was good practice
@30pics4jackiesdiamond au contraire! I COULD be busier and might SHOULD be busier but I spend a lot of time sitting around doing nothing constructive when there is tons of stuff that needs attention around here!
Theres a lot of art I don't get, lots of times I'm in an art gallery saying "a child could have done that"
Note to self: use the same quote and keep it in plain sight.
