How do you #measure the beauty of art? It is the value, aesthetic, skill, artist’s reputation, mark making, meaning, colour... in this humble subjective opinion, it’s a bit of everything. Here are my picks from @AGOartmatters #vss365 #Kollwitz, #van_Gogh, #Pootoogook, #Emily_Carr
#Aivazovsky’s romantic seascapes used the motif of stormy seas to reflect the turbulent times in Russia, Italy or Greece. He did not #overturn all ships but his most famous ‘The Ninth Wave’ (1st pic) depicts the sailors awaiting their fate. My fav is the last of Sounion #vss365
#apaintingaday a wee review of the galleries, I have visited beyond UK shores. Lack in inspiration so some of my fav #Turner paintings of #Venice
I can #wax lyrical about #Artemisia, her use of light & shade, the strength & power project by her art.
The Cailleach is waxing again.
You mean boring for Scotland Again!
She’s heard, not mice AGAIN!!
No, frogs, cackled the Divine Hag with a wave of her hand. Ribbit 🐸
