Breaking up the painting

I ran across this artist, Carol Manasse, who is a contemporary acrylic painting artist.  I found her art very beautiful, colorful and intriguing.  It reminds me of cubism, but without the harsh lines and shading techniques that Picasso and Baroque created.

Bridle Path at Sunrise

Fractured landscape



Grecian Sunset

Gymnasts

4 Horsemen of the Apocolypse

Galloping Horses

What do you think of her style?  Do you like it or dislike it?  Does it remind you of anything or inspire you?  Which one is your favorite or least favorite?

  1. i think this type of art is different. i think they had no lifes and all they did was do this. althought they probly got paid or i hope they got paid. they should do more but im not to exited about the horses but it was a good job.

  2. Well im not sure how they did this, but it looks really really time consuming. I would love to see how long it took them to do this. overall its a really good painting, and i give props to whoever did this and im suprised they had the patience.

  8. This painting is pretty cool. It looks like glass broken with a colorful tree in the middle. I like how it looks like glass because I like how broken glass looks.

  12. I think the art is confusing by all the extra parts. It should be focused on one specific item.

  13. I think this art is pretty cool I wish I was talented enough to do this. I think it would take some free time to do them drawings and I think I would have to say my favorite one is the fractured landscape.

  22. I think that this kind of art is really pretty. I think that the horses remind me of all of the horses at school.

  23. This kind of reminds me of church windows, but with softer lines. I would love to see how they made this look so natural. I wonder how long would this take? Overall, this is an interesting design, and I like it alot.

  24. This is a really interesting art. I think that it would take awhile but the final drawing is awesome. I wish i could do this.

  25. The way that they combine all the shaped and colors is crazy. Putting art together takes talent, and good skills planning ahead. I could never think of things like that.

  26. i like it. it seems like it would be really hard to do. it has a lot of randomness in it. this would be awesome to do.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I think the tree one is pretty cool. They're all so random but flow together nicely. Its creative and looks like it would take a lot of time. I'd like to know how long it took her to do one of these. The lines look so soft

  28. i like how they use horses a lot. how ever i find the yoga one the most interesting, how its all together but its not.

  29. i don't like this it looks wrong the way they overlap makes it look confusing. the individual objects look good but when they overlap its funky

  30. These paintings are interesting to me. Especially the first horse. It looks very cool and I can imagine the horse trotting around in pieces.

  31. I like this kind of art, even if it may be difficult to make. I like the ones with the horses. This is interesting and cool to look at.

  32. My favorite one is the tree. I like how it looks and I love the fact that this artists creations are so colorful. I think I liked them all but my least favorite one is the gymnasts. I would love to own one of these or try to make one.

  33. This looks really cool, but I don't think I would want to do this at all. It looks really difficult to do, and really confusing.

  34. I really like this artist's style because it looks like cubism, but more feminine and much softer. Also, in these pictures, you can actually see the subject, where many other works had unrecognizable objects in them.

  35. This art is very cool because it looks like they took different shapes and colors and put it all together to makes something really cool. I think we should try to do this because it would be a lot of fun but challenging at the same time.

  36. The artwork looks like a puzzle. It is just a bunch of different pieces into one beautiful piece. I really love it.
