The Impressionists

i watched the impressionists yesterday. i borrowed the dvd from the library.

god i love monet! i was more of a manet fan before. i saw some monet originals a few years back in nyc and it changed me. manet was more of a technical person. monet was more from the inside. he was a notch a rebel compared to manet. manet was an academic that challenged the subject matter whereas monet challenged everything the academicians believed in. monet is my man.

here is a small dialog that i did with the impressionists titled 'impressionist bulul.' i also learned how hard it was to draw this image. the bulul is so simple but highly complicated. it's hard to see the subtle shadows upfront so my advice is to never underestimate anything.
