Artists

Well i was thinking quite hard on what i wanted to study a little more about in the Art world, and for a while i made everything feel so complex. But then i saw Pablo PIcasso's Cubist Paintings and i knew that this man was a great Cubist Artist. Just the Complexity and the thought process of making the painting is quite genius. For Example take his Painting The Guitar Player:

What i like about it so much is that fact that it acts sort of like a puzzle, you have to try and find traces of the guitar player. What is also great about this painting is if you don't try to find the guitar player it still looks really beautiful and i think that was Pablo Picasso's intention. Also you can sort of visualize it like vast amounts of stairs that go to nowhere.

I'm also very much fascinated by Theodore Gericault and Caspar David Friedrich.
