Edgar Degas

 
 
Edgar Degas born 19th July 1834 was a well known French artist who specialised in created traditional paintings, prints, drawings and sculptures in the style of impressionism. The subject of his paintings focused most on dancing and capturing the movement or isolation of the body.
I chose to look into the works of Degas due to his subject matter focusing on ballet as so am I. Although his works do not use digital media to produce them I am taking influence from the style and colours of his paintings. I like the gentle brush stroke look and the soft pale colours that easily blend together.
