Music in Paintings

There are five styles in art:

1. Cubism2. Realism3. Impressionism4. Pop Art5. Surrealism…

Cubism

Is the style of art where the subjects remind us of basic geometric shapes.

Realism

Is the style of art that shows things exactly as they appear in life.

Impressionism

Is the style of art that includes many bright, colourful brush strokes. The paintings do

not have a lot of detail and they are usually outdoor scenes like landscapes.

Pop Art

Is the style of art that shows items painted in a colourful way. It is inspired by comic

strips, advertising, popular entertainment and everyday objects.

Surrealism

Is the style of art where the paintings are generally based on dreams. They are filled

with familiar objects painted to look strange or mysterious.
