April 26 - Rene Magritte

In my French class we were doing some research on francophone artists, specifically Rene Magritte who's done a few really famous paintings. I started looking up more of his surrealist work and it's really really interesting to me. I love surrealist art and his is practically defining of the genre. I like that they're mostly composed of simple changes of what could otherwise be pretty typical realistic paintings, he's pushing the boundaries of our perception. I think these would be great to recreate and especially to think up my own interpretation.
