In todays class we looked into Post-Impressionism. In post-Impressionism we categorized it into two ideas, the first being Form and the second being Personal Expression. Each being unique to certain artists in this movement. Paul Cézanne, a talented artist in the post-impressionism movement focused a lot of his work on Form. A popular work called the Mont Sainte-Victoire, which was Cézanne’s home and was painted trying to capture different light aspects and use line to make the bright colors of the landscape stand out. Over the years Paul Cézanne’s work evolves to be more abstract while continuing the use of bright color but increasing his use of dark outlines. I enjoyed Cézanne’s artwork because of the use of his brushstrokes and how its not perfectly blended in.
