It is a 19-th century art movement characterized by thin, small, yet visible brush strokes, emphasis on the realistic depiction of light, open composition. Impressionist painters included change as a vital element of human perception and unusual visual angles. The name comes from a painting of Claude Monet, named “Impression, Sunrise”. Painters worked to create their masterpieces outdoors (en plain air). Young painters Claude Monet, Alfred Sisley, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Frederic Bazille discovered the beauty of landscapes. Edouard Manet, Paul Cezanne, Pissaro, Paul Signac, and Georges Seurat created valuable pieces that remain in art history.
Impressionist painters created their paintings using bold brushstrokes and sometimes palette knife swipes. If you look at a painting from a distance, the color mix, and form a scene, if you look closer, you will see the colored dots and brushstrokes, carefully painted to create an image that takes you directly outdoors, “en plain air.”
It is hard to reproduce these numerous techniques, but BeFunky designers managed to reproduce the beautiful brushstrokes the pop-up colors to look like you painted the image.
