Color and Light - Part 2



I have stated how my love for the outdoors has influenced by preference for the artists and work that was created during great Impressionistic art movement. The artists who concentrate on portraying immediate sensations of a scene still capture my attention today.

If you examine some of the current magazines or attend gallery shows , you will find that artist today are still influenced by the Impressionist principles of Renoir and Manet’s time. Several American artists were known to have visited Giverny between 1885 and 1915 to study painting. Painters along with architects, muralists, sculptors, illustrators, fashion designers and musicians mingled together in the popular village.

You can find art history books and magazine back issues both current and vintage at Nella’s Books and Collectibles.
