ReplyDeleteI also featured Rousseau with one of his cat paintings. Thanks so much for featuring his art for T this Tuesday, dear Nita. PLEASE link to T unless you want me to do so.
ReplyDeleteRousseau was a wonderful artist. I love his way of making the viewer see new things. I’ve seen quite a few of his works, but I don’t remember this one.

Love the colors on the painting and, of course, the subject. Definitely should be an encouragement to us all that he persisted and was considered a master after the negativity he endured. Happy t-day and hugz

ReplyDeleteI'm agreeing with Rita, I also wonder how many of those 'people ' could actually paint. Have a great week Happy T day ((Lyn))
