Reading through Art in America I saw an advertisement for paintings of Terence La Noue and no offense, but it looked like he threw paint onto the paper and I could have done that in 5th grade; however, for some reason, it is so beautiful. I love the colors ad the blended, along with the texture. I just find it so odd that I have these mixed feelings. In class we watched two artists films. The first artist used fire in an explosive way. He made fire look so beautiful, yet when I think of fire in reality I think forests or buildings burning down and people getting hurt. I had a twisted emotion. I found myself fascinated with his piece of the cars in a variety of positions. It looked like a real life comic strip.
