I’m sure Monet wasn’t thinking about the science of vision when he painted.

So, just who is it that anoints painters and authors and actors as the flavor of the day? Say, Andy Warhol or some screeching singer or crappy poet.... Who makes that call? Cause I wanna have a word or two with them. 😹😹

If you need science to explain it, ITS NOT ART.

I’ve heard a much simpler explanation of impressionist art.
Monet was nearsighted, and painted how he saw.
Anyone who is nearsighted can attest to the fuzziness of the world without glasses.

When I took up painting, I found my style to be in Monet. I also found hidden things in my drawings.

I think this is a tautology, actually. Of course a great artist understands how to control what the viewer perceives by how he paints his painting.
I don't want to say the article is uninstersting, because it isn't, but at the same time it is a bit of a "d'uh."

He was basically using elements of modern color theory before it was even around. It’s what today’s screeens and printers use.

I like Monet’s work. Thanks for posting.
But I won’t read the article.
