Chagall

I have been researching an artist called Chagall who is famous mostly for his use of colour. He was a Jewish artist who has created many different things, like stained glass windows, theatre sets as well as paintings.

I like the fact that Chagall's work is not just limited to paintings, he has used his creative skills to make plates and tapestries. To me this shows that Chagall has great talent.

The main reason I decided to look at Chagall's work was because of his use of colour. The colours he used in all his works are bold and bright and are the main feature of his works.

Just by looking at pictures of his stained glass windows you can appreciate the amount of effort that goes into it. You can also imagine what the windows would look like with the light streaming in behind. The sheer magnificence of this would make even the most nonreligious person gasp in wonder.

Looking at Chagall has given me a better understanding of how I can manipulate the colours in my own videos, However this would be something I do in the editing process.
