Paul Klee



After critic today, I did some research on Paul Klee who Joe had mentioned. I found out that he and I share another thing in common beside our painting style: graphic design! During his career, Klee most notably worked at the Bauhaus teaching book binding, stained glass, and mural painting. He also designed several advertisement for art shows put up by the Bauhaus staff and students. The Bauhaus was also a place where other great designers like Herbert Bayer, Marcel Breuer, and more taught at before it was closed down by the Nazis. He also attempted to be an illustrator which is something I've always wanted to try. Here's some works by Klee himself above.
