Impressionism

Hey guys, it's Adventure Van here with a blog about  Impressionism. It is an art style that had a short life span after it's creation, unlike most other certified art 'movements'. However, the art was beautiful, and the artists were close friends for the most part. It was also quite contemporary for the time, and broke several barriers of art that had been in place for thousands of years. So, how did this amazing art style break out? That's what we'll be talking about.

One of the most amazing artists for this art period is Claude Monet, who was expert at painting things to reflect the seasons in his artwork. The main things about Impressionism is using ideas over straight lines, and Monet embodies that perfectly. But he's not the only artist.We had others, such as Auguste Renoir, who said that the paintings were more like studies then art.

We also had people like Paul Cezanne making pieces of art for the movement, doing paintings that were some of the more realistic of for the collection, while we had Mary Cassatt, one of the group's only female artists,m who did amazing pieces of art with little to no honest shapes, but with some kind of firmness in the paintings.

Impressionist art is a beautiful thing if you don't like complete realism. It resembles life, but it has a glow about it and less straight lines. If you do like realism, you should go to the paragraph below and agree with the people there. However, the art is nice to the eye and if you squint, you can see precisely what the artist wanted people to see in this. In that perspective, you can see entire worlds.

But not everyone saw it like that. There was a large amount of push back from 'established' artists. And most people didn't see the point of it, but now, past the artists life span, We realize they did it for fun, and that the art they made was as great as they thought it was.

So, that's an overview over the Impressionist movement. I hope you enjoyed, because this was quite a fun topic to research.

That's Adventure Van, painting out.
