My favorite paintings By: Lexi Kuzemchak
The Flower Of Life • Frida Kahlo is the artist. • It was made in 1944 • It was made in the Surrealism era.
Why I like The Flower Of Life I enjoy this painting because the flower looks strong, yet very delicate and beautiful at the same time. I also love the warm red/orange colors Frida Kahlo included in this painting. When I look at the flower, my eye immediately goes to the center of the flower. The middle of the flower looks like a firework, and I really like fireworks. The flower could also look like a person, if you interpret it that way. That's another reason why I like this painting. Frida really lets your imagination really go wild when you examine the painting.
African Beach • Mariano Fortuny is the artist of this paining. • African Beach was painted around 1867. • This painting was a part of the realism era.
Why I like African Beach There’s just something about this painting that brings a sense of relaxation over me. I really like how the artist used very muted colors to bring that calming sense. I also love this painting because it brings back a bunch of memories from my past vacations to the beach. I really enjoy how everything in the painting is not perfect and precise, because at the beach the sand isn’t perfectly flat. I also like how the artist put a few people in a boat it catches your eye.
Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata • The artist of this painting is El Greco. • It was composed in 1585-1590. • The era of this painting is the Renaissance. • The story behind this painting is about when St. Francis of Assisi got a vision of a seraph.
Why I like this painting I mainly like this painting because it ties my religion into it. I also like it because I feel emotionally attatched to it. When I look at this painting it seems very mysterious and I cant help not to feel curious. The dark colors make the painting very ominous and serious. I also like it because St. Francis brings back memories of me going to St. Francis University for volleyball camp.
