back to work.... dream on... sigh

Hi there... its back to work and grind, grind, grind. It would be really awesome to have an art studio and spend the whole day painting... and better still lazing around. Nice.

OK... so we know a little about Titian. I mentioned about his church paintings in my earlier blog... but as he became older and more experienced... he turned into potraits and landscapes... and slowly developed a painting skill that is not rivalled at that time in Italy.

His career as a potrait painter has developed his art into a new realm of Italian and European history. Its because he is a well known historian and captures many ongoings at that time. Many of his paintings are historical documents and records of famous individuals... monarchy, businessmen and religious leaders. However he is not only painting people and history... he has the gift of evoking character from models. He brings the person to life. Just look at any of his potraits and without camera or film can capture the same essence... it comes to life.

To me his works are worthy comparision to my favourite master Rembrandt. Voila.
