Favorite Artists: Marc Chagall

[admx94]

Chagall is like the little chocolate morsel of the art world. So pleasing to look at, that you almost feel guilty.... He will always be king of gradient :)

Chagall c´est un grande....

I hope people know that he painted the ceiling in the Paris opera house. The effect is like an Easter egg because of the shape. It's so lovely.

My all-time favorite artist. In college I bought a Chagall poster for $5 without knowing who he was and pinned it to my bedroom wall. I stared at it every morning when I woke up and saw something new in it each time. Years later, I worked in an art gallery, where we had a hand-signed Chagall 1977 Louvre poster on consignment from one of our clients. On my birthday, the gallery owner handed it to me as a gift, and I almost did a back-flip. (I had it framed instead of pinning it to my wall.)

I so wish I could paint in this style. Chagall is like the Gem just beyond my fingertips. Ive been an artist for 30 years, and I still would be terrified, standing before my canvas planning to paint in this style.

"In dreams I fly, above the barn, with goats and violins, I want too much,"

Don't stop dreaming. That's half the battle for an artist, as you no doubt know by now!

[painxtreme]

Thank you so much for the encouragement. I so love many styles of Art, as I am an Art History Professor, but Chagall, with next to no education paints like nothing I know. It like Picasso said, it took me 10 years to learn to pain realism, but its taken a lifetime to learn to paint like a child.

I can do Da Vinci's sfmato style (not as well of course), I do a pretty good job at impasto like the impressionists, I can sorta emulate Van Gogh, but not very well at all.

[painxtreme]

But Chagall just mesmerizes me. Though hes one of my top faves, hes not my absolute favorite, but he remains beyond my total understanding, Maybe I will buy some cheap oils one day and experiment, but i wouldnt use my custom pigments to try it, they are far too expensive for the amount of experimentation and study it would take, and still miss the mark. I have a friend that paints characterization like him, but he cannot meld it with the cubist and vivid glaze style used.

I love the Picasso comment!

[painxtreme]

Thank you, that quote has always inspired me. Even before I first heard it, I remember looking at some of my old drawings from childhood, longing to see and draw or paint the world as I did then.
