Introduction

The focus of the research article is to analyze famous art piece of a painting by Vincent van Gogh titled as Sun Flower. It is painted with oil on canvas during the 1888 or 1889. Vincent van Gogh was born 1853 and died 1890. Sun Flowers is the piece of art that he creates and while I was working on this project I found out that Vincent van Gogh was indentifying by the development of this types of painting. I choose to talk about this paint because, I remember when I was little always being caught by the beauty of this flower, also I remember when I used to live in Puerto Rico my mom have different kind of birds and she feed them with sun flower seeds, when it was time to clean the cage she throw them in front of the house and one day I never thought about wake up one day and find this beautiful flowers in front of our porch and see every day how tall they grow.

Discussion

Sun Flowers is the name of the art I choose to talk about its painted using oil on canvas which is according to what we learn in our art class. Oil paint contains pigments that contain oil usually linseed oil. The oil acts likes a binder, creating as it dries a transparent film in which the pigment is suspended. Oil was used during the 15th century by the great artist Jan van Eyck, something that on Western culture was synonymous of oil painting. Is good to mention that the first place to work with this type of oil paint was in woods and eventually Canvas where Vincent van Gogh creates such as beautiful paint title Sun Flower. Canvas offers two advantages to the artists they can draw larger pictures and also travel easily with their paints because they can rolled them to travel with it. Canvas was prepared by stretching it over a wooden frame sizing it with glue to seal the fibers and protect them from corrosive action of oil paint and the coating it with a white, oil base ground.

What a interesting way of create art and the most important part is that today we can visit an Art Museum and stand in front of such a beautiful pain and travel using my imagination to that ...
