My curiosity

Good afternoon!!

My favorite painter,

Pierre-Auguste Renoir,
who He was a leading painter

in the development of the Impressionist style.

He painted his impressions of how things looked,

working in the open air

to catch the changing effects

of light on the colours around him.

Here the river is a deep blue,

because the water is reflecting a blue sky.

Reflections of people, boats and buildings cast their own colours into the river.

The flickering surface scatters the light

and splinters the reflections,

breaking up the colours.

The river becomes a kaleidoscope of mixing,

merging colour fragments....

Reflections of colours in the river

 kept changing every second

and he could't see the same scene again.

It would be an impression only in a moment so

it is not so easy to express his impression into his painting.

I guess he was so romantic and

sensitive painter.....

And I can't stop thinking that

if he has seen a Black opal

he must have been interested in

the way that colours react with each other!

I wish I could see

how he plays with the colours of an opal...

Have a lovely day xxx
