The High Renaissance

As an artist of the modern world, I tend to work with bold colors and textures, exiting with a final piece representing beauty and its high values. Many take a different approach, giving us a better sense of changing it up and being unique in other world standing out the box. Everything was for the entertainment of curious eyes and minds. It also has an equivocal space making a more interesting visual pattern than the immediately clear spatial organization provided by overlapping in a design. A touch of the exotic was introduced for the first time. From the nudes to the linear and atmospheric perspective, observations their surroundings polished the movement.  The High Renaissance, an era in the sixteenth century that broke from tradition and came about a new interest in art, the human form along with science and math. This period was inspiring to me because I believe in giving the viewer a change to do his or her own interpretation. Being that Italian artists Michelangelo, Leonardo de Vinci and Raphael took full control of this period they bought art to the next level. Becoming more about the creative and the different not the obverse and the normal, from rich colors to its space composition and it massive grace. Harmony was all throughout paintings and sculptures at the time. As we could conclude, art could be taking in different directions and according to my understanding is up to us the artist to state our style and owning it.
