Inspired by his painting "Squares with Concentric Circles" we painted some Kandinsky hearts keeping with the theme of Valentines.
This week in Art we studied the artist Wassily Kandinsky. He was born in Moscow, Russia. He enjoyed music and learned to play the piano and the cello. The colors of nature dazzled him. Both music and colors would had a huge impact on his art. Kandinsky was one of the founding fathers of Abstract Art. Kandinsky felt that he could express feelings and music through colors and shapes in his paintings. For example, he thought that yellow had the crisp sound of a brass trumpet and that certain colors placed together could harmonize like chords on a piano. The shapes he was most interested in were the circle, triangle, and the square. He thought the triangle would cause aggressive feelings, the square calm feelings, and the circle spiritual feelings. Inspired by his painting "Squares with Concentric Circles" we painted some Kandinsky hearts keeping with the theme of Valentines. Comments are closed.
