Philip-Lorca diCorcia
Everything about this mans photography is spellbinding. Rich in composition, color and meaning. I could look at his work all day.
Hague School
A group of Dutch Artists mainly living in Haugue between 1870 and 1900. The Hague school painters drew their inspiration from the flat polder landscape and the everyday lives of peasants and fishermen around The Hague and the nearby port of Scheveningen. Lot’s of fields, windmills and cows!
Baroque Style
One of the main artistic styles of visual arts in the 17th centuary. The Baroque movement is defined by its dramatic and exaggerated tones in lighting and composition. Earthy warm tones were also a often specialty in defining the Baroque style. Artist Rembrandt is a thing example of this technique.
Photographer - Helmut Newton
A collection of Newton’s quintessential stylistic photography.
Photographer - Martin Parr
Martin Parr has to be one of my favourite British Photographers. He defined the British Beach look through humour and realism. His photography is much sharper and crisp than I first remembered but his blocked colours and textured golden skin tones make for vivid iconic photography.
Artist - Thomas Eakins
A few pieces of works from Artist Thomas Easkins. I really admire how he approaches painting his skin tones. It’s a porcelain quality but with more saturation and texture.
Fresh Tones
A collection of fresh color palette and tones. Gives the feel of a clear mind.
