  1. Impressionism By Julia C.

  2. What is Impressionism? Impressionism is described as a form of art that allows artists to use small, thin brush strokes. Artists did this because they believed that normal brush strokes did not show the artist’s personality. Artists focused on sunlight, which made extremely colorful and bright artworks.

  3. How did it start? Impressionism started in France in the 19th century, with artists such as Alfred Sisley or Claude Monet rebelling against regular art. Claude Monet had painted a work called Impressionism, Soleil Levant (Impressionism, Sunrise), which sparked the movement.

  5. How did Impressionism effect America? American Impressionism started in the late 19th and early 20th century. In about 1913, Impressionism lost it’s flair with the introduction of modern art. However, in the 1950’s, about 25 years after Claude Monet had passed, many exhibitions featured his work, reigniting the fad of Impressionism.
