Artistic Inspirations
It's great to hear about your interest in the historical influences on modern art. Here are some of my favorite movements and their impact:
Impressionism Characterized by small, thin brush strokes and emphasis on accurate depiction of light. It has profoundly influenced the approach to outdoor painting.
Abstract Expressionism
This movement has led to the exploration of non-representational forms and had a significant impact on contemporary art's freedom of expression.
Pop Art A pivotal movement that blurred the boundaries between 'high' art and popular culture, leading to innovative use of imagery from mass culture.
