jevin In Malay language which I don't understand either, but the still lifes -- the colors, the settings, the textures, the atmosphere ... everything is unusual and interesting. I enjoyed this very much although I don't understand a word he's saying.

jevin Turner's main subjects were landscapes and seascapes. He painted historical scenes in order to incorporate these subjects. He became known for a style which incorporated an atmosphere of mist and light. In 1834 he made sketches while the Houses of Parliament were burning and made paintings in his studio based on these sketches. These paintings beautifully showed the effects of fire, light, and water.

jevin Chuck Close shows some of his own pictures and talks about why and how he made them as he did. He might use the same subjects but, by making the picture in a very different way, changes the way that subject is experienced. At least that's what I've gotten from this. Be sure to see Part 2.

jevin Pierre Bonnard was a member of Les Nabis (a group which included Edouard Vuillard and Maurice Denis) in the late 1800s in France. His works are colorful and full of life, even though "rough" and "unrealistic." This video shows many of his works - No commentary, just music.
