Los líderes de la UE esperan que las sanciones aumenten la presión económica sobre Rusia y la disuadan de continuar su agresión contra Ucrania.
Giuseppe Arcimboldo was a 16th century Italian painter known for creating imaginative portraits composed entirely of objects such as fruits, vegetables, flowers, and animals. He lived nearly 500 years ago but was rediscovered about 100 years ago by the famous surrealist painter Salvador Dali. This painting called "The Four Seasons in One Head" is considered a self-portrait of Arcimboldo and is the only work of his in an American museum.
Artists began creating self-portraits in the 15th century to depict themselves as subjects or important characters in their work. With more accessible mirrors, many painters, sculptors, and printmakers experimented with self-portraiture. Albrecht Dürer was one of the first to systematically create self-portraits at different ages over his lifetime, establishing self-portraiture as an artistic genre. Since then, many other notable artists like Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Frida Kahlo, and Lucian Freud have also used self-portraiture to represent themselves at various stages of their lives.
Gesture drawing involves rapidly capturing the form and movement of a model in a short time period (2 minutes or less) through loose lines and shapes. It helps train hand-eye coordination and understanding of proportion and form. The process involves determining the line of action through the spine and adding volume around this line to define the major body sections and joint positions. Artists should practice different styles like continuous line, line and circle, or using a thick brush to find their preferred approach for gesture drawing.
Paul Cézanne was a pioneering Post-Impressionist painter born in 1839 in France. He was influenced by Impressionism but developed his own unique style using meticulous brushstrokes and flattening forms. His works were rejected by critics but influenced later artistic movements like Cubism. Cézanne painted landscapes and still lifes, focusing on subjects from his native Provence like Mont Sainte-Victoire and The Bathers. He developed his style over decades to use simplified shapes and patches of color, seen in works like Bathers from 1900-1905. Cézanne's innovative techniques made him an influential artist despite facing rejection during his lifetime.

He applied his distinctive artistic style to a wide variety of everyday objects, from stamps and puzzles to houses, jets, and trains. Rizzi spent his life in New York and often depicted people and buildings in his paintings and sculptures, using simple geometric shapes, lines, and vivid hues to bring his subjects to life with character.

Surrealism is an early 20th century cultural movement that began in Paris in the 1920s. It aimed to combine dream and reality through visual artworks and writings that featured surprising juxtapositions and scenes depicted with photographic precision. Surrealist works were intended as expressions of the philosophical movement first and foremost, with the goal of resolving contradictions between dreams and reality. The leader André Breton asserted Surrealism was above all a revolutionary movement that developed from Dada and spread globally in the following decades to influence various artistic fields as well as political and social thought.

By the late 19th century, European artists felt the need for a new form of art that reflected the fundamental changes in technology, science, and philosophy. Total abstraction bears no trace of anything recognizable and is considered non-representational by the artist, who views the work as merely design and composition without meaning. The document then provides examples of artists from Van Gogh to local contemporary artists who have contributed to the development of abstract art in various movements from Post-Impressionism to Color Field art.
A still life is a drawing or painting of inanimate objects arranged by the artist. Setting up an effective still life composition requires choosing a location with good lighting, including architectural elements for direction, and selecting interesting objects to demonstrate value and composition skills. When creating a still life drawing or painting, artists should plan the arrangement of objects, sketch the composition lightly, add value gradually to define shapes rather than using hard lines, and aim for a full range of tones. Proper drawing position and taking time to plan the composition before rendering details are also important tips for developing still life works.
Vincent Van Gogh nació en Holanda y se convirtió en un famoso pintor. Se mudó a Arles, Francia, donde encontró una casa amarilla que le gustó y decidió pintar un cuadro de ella. Sus pinturas favoritas eran los girasoles porque el color amarillo era su favorito.

Op Art, also known as Optical Art, was an art movement that developed in the United States in the mid-1960s. It uses color and abstract patterns to create the illusion of movement through optical effects and illusions. Artists employ shapes, colors like black and white, and special patterns to generate images that appear to vibrate or move. Unlike traditional paintings, Op Art aims to reach out to the viewer rather than draw the viewer into the work.
This document provides guidance on establishing values in figure drawing. It recommends starting with a two value block-in to simplify shapes and establish light and dark areas. The next step is to add a middle tone to soften transitions between light and dark. Finally, add the darkest dark and lightest light concentrated around the focal point, with contrast lessening as you move outward. This creates a controlled five value drawing. The document also notes that composition involves a three value breakdown of foreground, middle ground and background, with contrast coming forward and lack of contrast receding.
The prompt asks the student to create a line drawing of a house inspired by the Austrian architect and painter Friedensreich Hundertwasser. The drawing must include no straight lines, three details, one pattern, nothing identical, and plants. It further instructs the student to go over the pencil lines with a metallic marker, color three parts with the metallic marker, and use at least five colors of oil pastels to color the rest.
Paul Cezanne was a French post-impressionist painter born in 1839. He studied law but preferred painting.
