who im looking at...
I am frequently looking at different artist's work, for research, for inspiration and usually with a great deal of awe. Here are four I thought I'd share with you.
JW Waterhouse ( 1849-1917)
Gustav Klimt (1862-1918)
I've been keeping an eye on the above artists for some time. They were all working loosely around the same time but in very different styles. However, what draws me to them is also what they have in common... there content. Regardless of the different painting styles all of the paintings above are beautiful, romantic images of women.
The pen and ink drawing below is a piece i picked up the other day in a shop in Homewood. The artist is a contemporary as well as local artist. And! In this piece the subject matter is also figurative.
So now you know who im looking at.
Who are you looking at?
