Art and painting discussion...dont worry, its not as boring as you think...

About two days ago, i discovered that The Fighting Temeraire is voted Britains best painting...

The Fighting Temeraire...

 

Which was made in britain by Joseph Mallord William Turner; 1775-1851. He made it after the war which was Britain vs France and Spain. The war was in 1805, and soon after, when Turner was 56, he made this painting.

 

What is your favourite painting??

Why??

If this painting is??

Why??

 

I'll be expecting JesusofChaos to post here too...:D

Thanks...i guess...wait a minuite, what are you implying exactly...?? Especialy "holly chicken noodle soup"...lol

Turner made some awe-inspiring landscape paintings indeed, but my favourite ones are John William Waterhouse and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. They're both Pre-Raphaelite painters, which is a style I'm very fond of. I could go on and on with praising their works and numerating all my favourite paintings by them, but that would probably take too much space and patience of other people.;)

I always liked abstract art. There's just something about it that interrests me. Not to say that I don't like regular art, I do.

[Glorious eXcess]

Eww. It's...so....Oily and disgusting.

Hmm. Try this:

much more contemplative, really asks you what it is. Or what you like. Similar to my art. Very similar.

[Black Rose Phoenix®]

Well the Fighting Temeraire is sorta abstract if you think about it, it was taken from a view that happened when the Fighting Temeraire ship was broken, so...

 

 

Oh and Cereal on a Stove, i wouldn't say thats a master piece of art, no offence, but i'm talking propper old fasion abstract and emotional state of the art paintings...

I've always been a fan of Escher and Dali myself. :D

[Black Rose Phoenix®]

Cool, Dali is good, i've not heard much of Escher, but i have a couple of times...

[Enigma Zero]

M.C. Escher:

Rind:

 

Drawing Hands:

 

Relativity:

 

And just for giggles...

 

LEGO Relativity by Andrew Lipson and Daniel Shiu:

 

Another good source for Escher-inspired work is the movie Labrynth. Enjoy.

[Black Rose Phoenix®]

I like the first two, there cool, but i'm not sure about that lego one...mmm...lol

[Pikachu]

the relativity one reminds me of stairs in a square shape that's suppose to be a brain teaser.....don't know it's been a long time

the lego one...lol

back to topic: i think the painting is a bit...dull, just a ship and the sunset (or sunrise?)

[Black Rose Phoenix®]

I think its sunrise personally... and i guess the scene would be dull just after a war...
