Hi! Well I know I said I would write about cats, but I change (T) my opinion. Today I’m going to talk about art, specifically about a painter that I love: Matisse. Henri Émile Benoît Matisse was an important French painter. He used the color like no other! He was one of the principal represents of Fauvism, a pictorial movement characterized by the use of strong colors, not necessarily inspired on the reality.

My mom is a painter too, so I grow up (T) between canvas, paint, paint brush and books of art. That’s why for me art is so important and I decided write about it. I love Matisse because I think he painted the beautiful and essential of the nature. Even he said: “A work of art must be harmonious in its entirety: any superfluous detail would replace some other essential detail in the mind of the spectator”. So the nature is the inspiration, but good art is not about doing a copy of nature, we have to put something of us in our productions.

I think Matisse do (C) his in an exceptional way! Saving the best of the nature and mixing it with their own sensing. Added to this, he had a natural ability for proportions and to do a fluid line even when he wasn’t yet a professional painter. Well to be precise, he was also sculptor, draftsman, and in their last years because of his sickness he couldn’t paint so he did amazing collage (WW).
