I really like your blogging style and think it's wonderful. <br /><br />Did you know the last Kandinsky sold for $30 million? I think if I had that much money I would probably spend it on a small apartment building for my family and friends rather than a painting. <br /><br />But also, as an abstract landscape artist myself, I really enjoy the variety of abstract art there is out there. I especially like the colour palette of this piece by Kandinsky, but I also prefer more vibrant colours, rather than the more pastel he uses here. He uses the darker colours in this work to add depth to the piece, which feels a bit flat to me. Perhaps that is what he is aiming for, I don't know. <br /><br />It was really interesting to read your blog. Keep up the fantastic work!<br /><br />Kia kaha!<br /><br />Mark Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17159326208425052391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3785309960445213058.post-74748510284407636902017-01-06T15:50:41.872+13:002017-01-06T15:50:41.872+13:00Hello Rachel,

I had no idea what to call it so I called it random drawing. Years later I threw it out while cleaning my room.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3785309960445213058.post-45801957547387852242017-01-06T12:46:24.296+13:002017-01-06T12:46:24.296+13:00Hi Riiana,

I personally quite like the bold colours in the painting and I think that I would buy it for my grandma. She always loved unusual, bright and dramatic prints and this is certainly a good example of that!<br /><br />I think that your idea of buying it in order to use it as a means of practicing your own drawing is great. You could use it as inspiration. Have you ever drawn an abstract picture before?<br /><br />Great work with your blog post today, Riiana. You really got my thinking about this painting, its uses and its potential as a gift for my grandma.<br /><br />Thanks, Riiana!<br /><br />Cheers, RachelAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10992026915931452376noreply@blogger.com
