W03 Compare Thomas Kincade and Vincent Van Gogh art.With Kincade, I get a sense of whimsicalness or fairy tale feel to his art. His work of Disney scenes works well for this style. I get a sense of realism in other works which are environmental scenes or towns and villages. And one common thread that all of his work seem to share is the ability to enhance light in the scenes he paints. As if the light is ‘popping’ off the canvas. My mother is big Kincade fan for that reason and I can see why.Van Gogh uses flowing lines in his works. And I think that’s an elemental representation of things that usually don’t have visibility to the eye. Like wind, light, air, or even movement that’s ever present in life. And Van Gogh’s works are depictions of life and his lens sees these invisible attributes which I think makes him special.
