Vincent Van Gogh -The Darkness in my SoulJerry Daperro
Vincent van Gogh (1853-90) is one of the most original artists in the late 19th Century. He worked as an evangelist before taking up painting at the age of 27. He had a very short professional life lasting only for ten years. He was largely self taught but inspired by Impressionism, especially during his 2 years living in Paris. But as this short slideshow shows, Vincent is constantly exploring new styles and he would switch his style to paint the image he wanted. In his early days his painting was glomy and mainly with earthen colours. However, his paintings changed in his later works, using bright and primary colours. He became very good at it that even red coloured cows looked perfectly natural and acceptable. He had a tragic life with all his talent he managed only to sell only one of his painting. His story is also the story of two brothers, their love for each others and their sympathy to others. This seems to be a contradiction with Vincent self-portrait glazes.

The document discusses the progression of Impressionism in Europe and art movements in America between 1870-1900. It describes how the Impressionists in France broke away from the rigid Academy system and held independent exhibitions displaying their loose, spontaneous brushwork and focus on capturing light.

During this period in America, European art had a strong influence, and American artists traveling to Europe absorbed Impressionism and brought these new styles back, helping to transform American art. Museums and art schools also opened to foster the growth of American art.

Conservation requires expertise in fine art, art history, science, and materials analysis to understand objects and address damage or degradation while respecting their integrity. Common conservation treatments include consolidation, stabilization, inpainting, cleaning, and repair. The field draws from diverse specialties including paper, paintings, furniture, archaeological artifacts, textiles, and works on paper conservation.

Here are some key things to include in your observational drawings:
- Draw what you see, not what you think you see. Focus on accurate proportions and shapes.
- Use light and shade to show form. Draw the shadows as darkly as the highlights are light.
- Pay attention to textures. Try different mark-making techniques like cross-hatching to show textures like bark or leaves.
- Draw a variety of natural forms like shells, stones, fruits, flowers or seed pods. Drawing different textures and shapes will give you more ideas for your sculpture.
- Take clear, well-lit photos to use as references if drawing from life is difficult. Photos can also help you capture textures.

Gauguin's self-portrait uses simplified shapes and surfaces with symbolic elements to depict his view that true art comes from imagination rather than external appearances. The portraits represent the differing artistic philosophies of the two painters.

Aboriginal rock art in Australia dates back over 30,000 years and can be found across the continent. The paintings and engravings were traditionally created for cultural and spiritual reasons to tell stories and myths. A variety of natural pigments like ochre were used along with binders like plant juices and applied using twigs, leaves or fingers. Some of the most famous examples include Wandjina spirits from Arnhem Land and rock art found at Kakadu National Park depicting animals and ancestral beings.
1) Sophia Ainslie, an art professor at Northeastern University, will feature her artwork in an exhibit called "Inside Out" at the Kingston Gallery for the month of April.
2) The works in the exhibit consist of abstract ink drawings and paintings inspired by an x-ray of Ainslie's mother's stomach from her home in South Africa.
3) Gallery curator James Hull praised Ainslie's ability to bridge drawing and painting through her use of color and linear patterns, and said being a teacher has helped her develop as an artist.

Amanda van Gils' paintings recreate landscapes glimpsed from speeding vehicles, extending a previous series depicting views from trains in Europe. This time, her works depict the intense greens and ochres of Queensland's forests and soils seen from a car on the Bruce Highway. Van Gils has felt a deep connection to landscape since childhood, from long drives between home and grandparents. Her paintings confront the breathless pace of modern life, where landscapes are only glimpsed, but also reference slower past times when lives were more tied to the land. Ultimately, her works reveal her delight in poetically linking landscape to human experience.
