Influences and Inspirations

Some of the artists I've become interested in my life are as follows...
Susan Seddon- Boulet: 1941- 1997
Junior year of high school I created a presentation and piece of work based on Boulet, her ideas, and images.
The magic she brings to her paintings are breathtaking. I love the way she melds humans and animals using a combination of ink, pastel and paint. Boulet created a series of goddesses that are stunning.

Transcendence



Gustav Klimt: 1862- 1918
Senior year of high school I created a presentation and piece of work based on Klimt's art.
I'm drawn to Klimt's palette and his emotional figures.

 Marcel Duchamp: 1887-1968
Amazed in Art History II
I just think Duchamp was such an interesting person who had creative ideas that pushed the idea of 'what is art?'. I'm also drawn to him because of the different mediums he worked in, from sculpture, to paint, to ready mades.
