So I'm so excited to be hosting this challenge - kinda flying by the seat of my pants hope I'm doing this right - feel free to let me know if i need to change anything!
I apologize I accidentally deleted my previous post about this, but this is the official low down on the next Artist Challenge.
The artist I've chosen is Paul Klee (1879-1940).
Though influenced by artists and movements of his time (cubism, surrealism, abstraction, minimalism) he was known to have a highly individual style. His works have been described as meditative, childlike, mystical, intriguing, dreamlike, some along the lines of fantasy. Primitive stick figures, studies of colored squares/triangles, the crescent / full moon; all of these are hallmarks of Klee's work.
For an well written, short synopsis of the artist and his art, along with a sampling of his work:
@catcarter19 Hey family! There are so awesome entries for the Paul Klee artist's challenge - two days left so anyone who is thinking about entering please give it a shot - just think about your interpretation - Klee, but with your spin on it -if you want to do something crazy or waaaay outside the box just do it! Thanks love you all!!
Great choice! Sadly though, Im playing catchup after a glorious month in the garden and have only just opened this today! Ill give it a go though, even though the deadline's already hurtled past!
