Jan van Eyck was a Flemish painter.He really good at painting . He was the best
painter in north Europe . When he was little he had a brother . His brother was a good painter.so Jan van Eyck's brother taught him how to draw . when they grow up . They both are court painters. And they also work together and drew some paintings.After few years Jan van Eyck become master painter . Then he draw for Duke . The duke treated him very well also . He maked alot of money. He never worried about his money even he died.

This is a painting that Jan van Eyck drawed. I think this draw is very beautiful. the picture is drawed by oil painting . I think this man is very realistic like a man that can move. and his face is full of anxious . I like this painting also have another reason is that the color that he use is very bright . I like the colar very much.

masaccio


this is a picture that Masaccio drawed.It draw in 1425-1428. I think this draw is beautiful because the face of the men are all lifelike and the picture is like 3D . The strange thing is in the down of the picture. There is a skeleton in the and some words write on it



Masaccio was the first artist that draw perspective.His draws all like 3D.When he was little his father dead, so his mother married again with a doctor. So Masaccio had went to good school and learned many things about art.When his grow up. He became to a great artist and draws many wonderful pictures.

This picture name is the last supper . I can see the balance in this picture. Jesus is in the middle and the two side people almost stand in the same way and the number of people is same.It shows in Renaissance time the painter like to draw the painting in a great balance.They think this kind of draw is beautiful.

In this website I learned that Harmony means balance. In Renaissance time there are some famous artist like Leonardo da Vince, Jordano, Tizian, Donatello, Michelangelo they were all value about harmany . thier piantings almost have balance. The last supper is a great example.They think that way to draw is beautiful.Painter call it is a golden proportion.
