Our Weekly Aesthete: Ghada

My board this time, goes well with one of my favorite compositions: Moonlight Sonata

Small glimpse...

a Quarter-life crisis

a well-known illusion: Time

Something about being a child that made days seem to stretch on forever.

Yet time remains constant; the rules of physics continue to apply, and the sun rises and sets on time,

but I feel that as I grow older, time grows with me; going faster and faster

until a day feels like a couple of hours.

When art lives through art

the dying art of rock&roll

An unrealistic depiction

sometimes we appreciate art because it allows us to see the world differently, who knew a red sun looks good? and a clean beach? definitely unrealistic

Despair

Regret

The power of touch

Another landscape

I prefer landscapes over portraits; a scene can speak a thousand words...

I mean we are so obsessed with ourselves as people that we employ art to produce still images of our faces!

of course, I have to mention impressionism

why does the impressionism art movement speak to me the most?

because it represents rebellion and originality, because it questioned the rules, realizing that compliance is a safe option, not the "best" one

impressionism is a rebellious movement in the sense that it rebelled against classical art, creating something entirely original.

Impressionist paintings are characterized by:

• visible brushstrokes that provide only the raw impression of shape.

• unblended color.

• a focus on the precise representation of natural light in its changing qualities (often accentuating the effects of the passage of time).

Impressionism can be seen as a reaction by artists to the challenge posed by photography, which seemed to devalue the artist's ability to reproduce reality.

Rather than creating accurate depictions, the Impressionist Artists strove to portray their own perceptions of nature.

Montmartre

To conclude this board, I'd like everyone to envision this scene when they think of my Atelier: Montmartre.
