Artists
By: Nicole Gabrielson
Vincent Van Gogh
1853-1890
Vincent was a Dutch artist
He never got his moms blessing, because there
was a baby born before him with same name
and died.
Vincent tried to make his art have feeling to the
people who saw it
Starry Night-
Vincent Van Gogh
Michelangelo
1475-1564
Pope Julius II, ordered that Michelangelo paint
the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, when he was a
sculptor
It took Michelangelo around four years to paint
the giant ceiling
He absolutely hated painting
The Sistine Chapel
Ceiling
Norman Rockwell
1894-1973
Painted manly American daily lives
Remembered as an illustrator and story
teller
Did his paintings for magazines like Boy
Scout, Life.
Norman Rockwell:
Saying Grace
Claude Monet
1840-1926
He and his friends used and created
impressionism
He used his wife and kids as models often
in his paintings
He believed that it was best to paint
outdoor
Claude Monet:
Impression Sunrise
Leonardo da Vinci
1452-1519
He painted shadow and there were
shadows in other shadows
He painted the Mona Lisa which is the
most famous painting in the world
Used linear perspective in most of his art
work
Leonardo da Vinci:
Mona Lisa
Girl with Pearl Earring
Johannes Vermeer
The artist used the white collar
to reflect the pearl earring
No one knows who the girl is
probably a young waitress, and
he used her as a model
Judith and Her Maidservant
Artemisia Gentileschi
This art is a story from the bible
Judith cut Nebuchadnezzar, the enemy
leaders, cut his head off while he was
drunk at a party
The Bath
Mary Cassatt
The way the mothers hand
is on the little girls foot is so
delicate, makes the painting
have a calm feeling between
them
The artist painted
everything important in pastel
colors
Mona Lisa
Leonardo da Vinci
She is the most famous
painting in the world, because
she was stolen
The scenery is different
on both sides of her mouth,
the right side draws up he
mouth into a smile, the left is
not
The Scream
Edvard Munch
In the picture, Edvard is not screaming,
the earth is, that’s why he is covering his
ears
The picture is trying to show
feeling through his open
mouth, wide eyes and the
scenery in the back
