Wassily Kandinsky

"That it was a haystack the catalogue informed me. I could not recognize it. This non-recognition was painful to me. I considered that the painter had no right to paint indistinctly. I dully felt that the object of the painting was missing. And I noticed with surprise and confusion that the picture not only gripped me, but impressed itself ineradicably on my memory. Painting took on a fairy-tale power and splendour."

His works are splendoud and a credit to him.

below are some of his artworks

art work

Artist: Paul Klee's

Peice: Twittering Machine

This artwork is simpel yet complicated. it is simple in the way that there are not many lines but complicatedin the way fo how the picture is drawn and colours used.

the colours used

Margaret Preston

A Bird Of Paradise

This peice of Margaret Prestons work. The colours vary with bright, warm, cold and dull colours. Lines in this artwork include thick and thin, curved and straight. Each picture flows in with the next. The pictures in this artwork include various flowers, leaves, trees asnd a bird of paradise. The bird alone has various lines, colours and textures used. The images in this peice take up most of the room on the paper. Although the left over space provides a base colour which highlights the rest of the art work.

Wood Cut

Woodcut is a relief printing artistic technique. It is done by in which an image is carved into the surface of a block of wood, with the printing parts remaining level with the surface while the non-printing parts are removed. The areas to show 'white' are cut away with a knife or chisel, leaving the characters or image to show in 'black' at the original surface level. Multiple colors can be printed by keying the paper to a frame around the woodblocks, where a different block is used for each color.

This artistic technique is used by Margaret Preston in her peice of work A Bird Of Paradise.

Summary

In summary Margaret Preston made a masterpeice when she created A Bird O f Paradise. This artwork must have taken a lot of time and patience to complete as the technique of woodcut soumds hard and like a lot of hard work put into it. Margaret Preston is a truly spectacular artist.

Lino Print

In class the pass few weeks our class has been working on Lino Print. Lino print is a peice of card which you carve away in a certain section. Thereore when you put ink on the lino and then place it on a surface only the places not engraved out will show the colour of the ink while the other spaces that a carved away will be left white. In a few weeks I will have finished mine.
