Hans Hoffman, White in Blue, 1947

The Virgin in Prayer

1640-50, Sassoferrato

Child with a Dove, Picasso

One of my favorites of his… so tender and hopeful on one hand, and so sad with its heavy strokes and thick paint on the other.

Who’s Afraid of Red, Yellow and Blue, 1966
Barnett Newman

I try to limit the amount of time I drone on about my adoration for art. I feel remarkably compelled to say this about Barnett Newman’s work: It’s fucking rad.

He distilled art down to its basic necessity: color and paint.

See his work in person. They’re large. They’re moving. They’re masterpieces.

ok. that’s enough for now.

Henry Ossawa Tanner (American, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 1859–1937 Paris)
TitleFlight Into Egypt, 1923

this one always moves me… the paint is thick and rich, the colors vibrant and moody.
