The most Fascinating Artist ever!

Hey guys, this week we are supposed to write about an artist that we like. The artist I've chosen is J.M.W. Turner which is short for Joseph Mallord William Turner. He was born on a day in late April~early May at Covent Garden, London, England. He died on the 19th of December, 1851. His movement, which means style of art, is Romantism. I like his artworks because he has achieved all the goals I've set for myself in realism art and that's amazing. The way that he can paint an image in his head then transform it into a masterpiece is simply stunning.

My top three favourites are:

1. I've lost my boat

It's a beautiful piece of art and I totally love it because the picture shows obvious joy and it makes me happy just looking at it. The blending is also goals!!! XO

2. Dartmouth Castle on the river Dart

This oil painting uses similar colours as the first painting I showed. I also love this painting because I like the way he displayed the time and place. 

3. A storm (Shipwreck) 

Date: 1823

This one is cool because the way he painted the waves showed exactly how hard it would have been for the people on the ships and especially if they were caught up in a storm. He also painted the splash of the waves very well.

One day, I hope to be able to paint as good as him but it's gonna take time. Since practice makes perfect! XD
