29th May:Art Competition

Hi All ,here is a very exciting Art Competition that everyone should enter as 1 Euro goes to charity for every entry...so get creative!!!!! Theme The theme for this year’s Art Materials Company’s Art Competition is:​ Freedom in a Time of Constraint. ​This can be interpreted in any way as long as it is visual art (dance, writing, music and other other creative expressions are not accepted for this year’s competition). Here at Art Materials Company, we believe that everyone is creative but many people haven’t discovered ‘how’ yet or they get discouraged because they believe: ‘I’m not good enough’; ‘I’m not an artist’; ‘I can’t draw’. Who said? Challenge yourself to discover your creative side! Taste of a new found freedom! Those of you more comfortable in your creative skin, try new ways of expressing yourself in your artwork. Break out into new found creativity. It’s a great time to do it. If not now, when? Requirements Judges will be looking for creativity above all. So, b

Hi Class, What I would like us to look at is the work of Post-Impressionist Artist Paul Cezanne. There is alot of info here so perhaps go over this the next few days. Take notes/mind map . I will have an Art History question to follow soon. Paul Cézanne was a nineteenth century artist whose work was misunderstood by his contemporaries. A shy man who worked a great deal in Aix-en-Provence, the home town where he was born and raised, Cézanne moved Paris when he was young and, despite his father's wishes, pursued a career in art rather than law. Cézanne was a modern artist whose work was a precursor for Cubism and Fauvism. His compositions were usually dark in tone and he often chose to work inside rather than en plein air. Cézanne didn't receive critical acclaim until very late in his life and after his first solo exhibition. He never formed close friendships with many of his fellow artists but before he died there was a great deal of interest in his works. Paul Cézann
