Artists whose work interests me:
- Frank Auerbach
- Salvator Rosa
- Marisol Escobar
- Henri Matisse
- Max Ernst
- Luca Buvoli
- Eric White
Salvator Rosa is probably my favorite from just a looking at it standpoint, I love the Humana Fragilitas painting, the skeleton flying in with the deeds to be signed is very spooky, I really do enjoy these works however I don’t believe my skill in art is enough to be able to accomplish making something like this.
Henri Matisse also interests me, his more simple ink drawings look more simplistic while still being very nice to look at, and I really enjoy his drawing of Signac Fishing and Derain Swimming. The more simplified drawing style is also something that I could try to go for since its not as technically difficult.
Luca Buvoli is by far the least popular artist out of all of them that I looked at however I really enjoy his consistent theme of the astronaut and his sorta inverted color theme was very cool in my opinion, I would love to draw a series of drawings with a recurring character like that.
