The 19^th and 20^th centuries have been marked by the explosion of different art movements within Europe mainly, but not only, all around the world, people were also expressing their emotions with art, from Frida Kahlo in Mexico to Pablo Picasso in Spain, to Katsushika Hokusai in Japan. Hokusai has greatly influenced van Gogh and Monet.

This was an important moment in history and has transformed the way we interact with art today. Although many influential artists were not recognized in their time, we are celebrating them today. This unique opportunity for you to paint these paintings with paint by numbers.

Van Gogh Paintings

Vincent van Gogh's paint by numbers is a prestigious way to introduce yourself to the world of art for people less familiar with it. Van Gogh is well known for his personal touches and colors. Part of the Dutch post-impressionist movement in the late 19^th century, the artist has influenced a whole era. Up until today, his work is exposed in different artistic capitals around the world, from London to Amsterdam, the painter really influenced the world of art. Although misunderstood for a very long time, and going through some hard times, his art is greatly appreciated nowadays.

Van Gogh’s work has led to the development of modern art. The painter’s love for nature would reflect in his paintings. He was a very humble person and would find himself stargazing and dreaming his life away. ‘Starry Night’ is the reflection of that dreamy artist that wanted to share his emotions with his viewers, filled with various feelings.

Monet paint by number

Claude Monet is the founder of French Impressionism which has flourished in the late 19^th century and has shown the beauty of abstract creating little strokes and dabs with a paintbrush. He is at the origin of this technique.

Monet Paint By Numbers are just a beautiful way to revisit this epical art movement and to bring it back to life and into your interior. Monet has impacted a whole generation and just like van Gogh or Picasso, his artwork can be found in the most prestigious museum on the planet. When you hear Monet, beautiful and relaxed landscapes come to your mind. He nailed the art of recreating a beautiful atmosphere, a unique landscape while using this particular technique that is specific to impressionists.

Something that is less known from Monet’s technique is that he would banish some colors from the palette he would use, therefore, no brown or earth colors can’t be found on his paintings. Claude Monet would use a limited number of colors to paint and would be able to create that impression of light using specific techniques and paint.

Claude Monet mainly used oil on canvas and along with other impressionist artists such as Renoir, he would change the way landscapes were painted. Instead of copying in every detail, similar to a photograph, he would rather capture the lights and the colors present in the landscapes. His outdoor painting technique is admirable. Claude Monet had a beloved scene (just like most artists), his preferred spot was the waterlily pond.

Worldwide renowned painters

Both Vincent van Gogh and Claude Monet were founders of the impressionist art movement that appeared during the late 1850s. This movement is characteristic of a certain technique that is used to paint on the canvas.

Mainly with oil, impressionism means capturing the light of the landscapes, it is not an exact copy of what you are seeing but it is an ‘impression’ of it. The use of little strokes with the paintbrush creates that impression of light and movement and is the pillar to the later movement of pointillism and neoimpressionism.

Different techniques and paintings started to be more popular during the early 20^th century, that period being scarred by the multiple wars, people would use art as an escape to express their feelings. Pablo Picasso is a particularly good example, if you are familiar with the Guernica painting, it is a very meaningful painting marking the anti-war movement. Guernica (Spain) was bombarded by the Nazis in 1937, it is a revolt against the catastrophic disaster that was happening in the world.

The 20^th century is marked by horrific historic challenges and art was the only way to peacefully go against it. Artists will counter-attack with their paintbrushes and let their colors express their anger and their despair for the situation. However, not everyone was politically engaged.

Artists, such as van Gogh and Monet were from an earlier generation and made a big change in the way we are painting today. During the Middle-Age, painters such as da Vinci or Van Eyck would paint realistic scenes and portraits. With Monet and van Gogh, this will change, and paintings will become more abstract and less truthful to reality. The colors will be more vibrant, and the representation will be more imaginative.
