Ancient Harmony by Paul Klee

Ancient harmony is the perfect picture for the New Year.  Gentle shaded cubes of colours misted across the base.

It is beautiful and harmonious and that is what we all strive for in our lives harmony.  Or do some people thrive on conflict.

The Ancients knew the secrets of harmony and they have been passed down through the ages and expressed in this beautiful painting.

We need harmony in some area of our lives because you can’t fight on all fronts because that is exhausting.  Perhaps you want a strong home life that is harmonious, that refreshes and nourishes you, gives you strength to do battle with warriors in other areas.

Paul Klee: Fire at full moon

Fire at full moon is a lovely picture in an almost cubist style, it was liked so much by the Tate that they have done a whole exhibition on the works of Paul Klee.

It is imaginative and quite different with lovely colours.

It was painted in 1933 in Germany, he however due to the political turmoil decided to reside in Switzerland where he settled and finished at lot of his current exhibits.

Fire at full moon can be bought from John Lewis and the link to the site is below

Franz Marc’s cubism painting The Tiger 1912

Tiger’s back is to us, head just turned around to see who is behind him.  The best cubism painting Marc ever did.

The colours are rich, with broad strokes and he has created a low light atmosphere, for the very alert tiger that is in his prime of life.

The tiger looks well fed and is just strolling through its territory on an evening walk, when a slight crack alerts him and he swings round.  If all looks harmless he will be on his way back to his safe tree top where he might chance having a snooze before the dawn awakes him.

This is definitely a picture to have a look at and it’s a great example of this kind of artwork.  I think you will like it a lot.
