For my individual work I turned to post-impressionism because I am quite interested in this movement. I am particularly interested in oeuvre of Vincent Van Gogh as I consider him one of the most talented artists of the 19th century. As a precedent for my individual work I decided to use his drawing “Starry night” (June, 1889) because I find the drawing technique he uses for this drawing quite interesting and unusual. The use of rough hatches very well expresses van Gogh’s unique style. I also find really amazing that if you take a very close look at the drawing, it seems harsh and has really strong contrast between hatches and the background. But if you look at the picture from the distance, It creates really nice and smooth texture and really soft feeling.
