 Paul Cezanne is a famous French painter, one of the greatest of the Post-Impressionists, whose

works and ideas were influential in the aesthetic development of many 20 th century artists and

art movements, especially Cubism. Paul Cezanne was born on January 19, 1839, and died

October 22, 1906. Cezanne is famous for his still-life drawings. A still life drawing focuses on still

objects. The subject matter is inanimate and never moves, typically Cezanne did still life

drawings/painting using fruit. The drawing I picked it called Still Life by Paul Cezanne. This

picture first caught my attention because of the color choices. I really appreciate how deep and

rich the color choices he used. I love how simple this design is, but yet so detailed. I like the

shading and how he highlights the texture of the fruit. Also, I really like the shading in the vase

and plate. Lastly, I like he blended the colors together.

Romare Bearden's art is interesting. This is not the art I would usually like looking at, but it is unique. Vibrant colors, cutout-like features, all these make it kinda feel like a collage.  This reminds me of a certain art style that one of my favorite anime uses. In the show, The enemy and the world they create has a similar art style to this. Here is a couple of examples:

Richard Estes- Kimberly Durso

This is a painting of the Williamsburg Bridge made by Richard Estes in 1995. This painting caught my attention because it looks so realistic. It does not look like it was painted at all but it looks like a picture shot off of a professional camera. There is so much detail, Estes even included the graffiti and rust. It amazes me that he was able to paint from this angle and include all of the shadows, especially that the painting is not based on a photograph because the shadows must have been moving as he was painting.

Emily Dee "Jamming at the Savoy"

  Romare Bearden was an African-American artist and writer who depicted African American life. His early work focused on unity and cooperation within the African-American community. His use of the collage theme reemerged around the 1960s. I chose this piece titled "Jamming at the Savoy" because to me it is a very happy piece. The colors he used are bright and vibrant. I love music, and I enjoy how everyone looks happy playing their instruments.
