‘Light and Colour (Goethe’s Theory) – the Morning after the Deluge – Moses Writing the Book of Genesis‘ [1843] by Joseph Mallord William Turner, Oil on canvas, 78.5 cm × 78.5 cm (30.9 in × 30.9 in).
Mary Cassatt Mixes Media
‘A Woman And A Girl Driving’ [1881] by Mary Stevenson Cassatt, Oil on canvas, 35 5/16 × 51 3/8 inches (89.7 × 130.5 cm).
# Interesting fact – Do you know the names of any horse carriages by their constructed style and purpose?
Okay, well here is the name of some popular carriages during the latter 19th Century including a few modernly represented carriages too:
Araba, Barouche, Berlin, Brougham, Cabriolet, Curricle, Dog-cart, Dray, Gig, Hackney, Hansom, Landau, Mail coach, Omnibus, Phaeton, Road wagon, Rockaway, Runabout, Stage coach, Surrey, Tonga, Van coach, Victoria, Volante, Waggon and Wagonette.
To be honest I only knew fourteen of these carriage names.
In her painting we see the lesser detailed fauna of the Bois de Boulogne. A heavily cropped composition of horse and carriage to showcase the occupants. The steadied seating of young Odile and Lydia’s concentration to drive carefully whilst holding horse-drawn reins.
Yes, a woman actually driving in the late nineteenth century. Although now it’s the early 21st Century and we should all be hovering about on magically carpeted skateboards pretending its 1985.
Flux capacitor fully charged, of course.
– “Times are a changin’ like the dog and it’s tail.” – chimed the Coachy, who had clearly seen the various where-with-alls of the known ages come and go.
Purraps ye olde Coachy is proper ‘edless and has seen ye time and times thee only throws a stick at?
Hey, I wonder if ole’ Coachy knows Charon, the ferryman? They’d get along swimmingly together.
Lydia looks responsible. The groom is contemplating bachelor life passing by. I have to laugh that Cassatt has wondrously captured the man with all his intrepid apprehension. Although posing in a horse drawn carriage for goodness knows how long must be quite challenging.
Beautiful too.
I do love her painting.
‘Sara Wearing A Bonnet’ by Mary Stevenson Cassatt.
‘Sara Wearing A Bonnet’ by Mary Stevenson Cassatt is a masterpiece.
Sara’s origin is currently a mystery to me.
Cassatt sketched and painted Sara around fifty times from circa 1900/1 through to, at least, 1907. Cassatt’s determined efforts to replicate same subject person’s in different compositions was likely influenced upon seeing works by Peter Paul Rubens and Antonio Allegri da Correggio.
Mary is exceptionally thorough in her artistic training and study of past Masters.
What intensity do you need to enjoy composing the same person fifty times? Look at Sara, she is divinely beautiful at such a delicate young age. It’s a testament to Mary Cassatt that she also finds Sara’s inner qualities of grace, patience and charm time and again in her compositions.
Sara has an incredible sense of purity that radiates through her adorable complexion. Personally I think Mary viewed her expression so perfectly painted here that she hastily put down her brushes.
The artwork is just so.
‘The Tea’ by Mary Stevenson Cassatt [c1880-81], Oil on canvas, 64.77 cm x 92.07 cm (25 1/2 ins x 36 1/4 ins).
‘The Tea’ by Mary Stevenson Cassatt, shown above, is a true delight to behold. To our left Lydia Cassatt, the aforementioned carriage driver, appears deep in thought. Hair shining, superbly posed, revealing her personality to us in a new way – a friendly looking lady.
The tea drinker, cup to lips, is dainty and prim. We are able to glean her nature in this fleeting movement to sup, along with the pretty societal decorum of her era.
The tea service belonged to Mary Stevenson, the Cassatt’s Grandmother whom Mary herself is named after. Likely the tea service is expensive as this was made specifically for their Grandmother. Therefore in this painting we have direct connections to the artist’s family heritage. Notwithstanding that the silverware itself is beautifully envisaged for us by Mary.
Honest portrait replication is where Mary Cassatt’s art excels. Without question this is her primary objective in portraiture, irrespective of the background. Mary understood exactly what the fashionable art market wanted. ‘The Tea’ painting shown here was included in two Impressionist Exhibitions, 1880 and ’81.
Close, trusted friend to Degas [‘The Edgar Degas Art Ballet’ link here]. Personal friend and colleague to French artist Berthe Marie Pauline Morisot [Wikipedia link here], whose artworks featured in one of my past blog articles A Woman’s Perspective by Berthe Morisot [link here].
Mary Cassatt was also lifelong friend to the exceedingly wealthy Louisine Waldron Elder Havemeyer, who was instrumental to the Early 1900’s Suffrage Movement . Louisine herself was a high profile art collector and an active feminist. Proven through the pages of a book entitled ‘Sixteen to Sixty: Memoirs of a Collector’ by Louisine W. Havemeyer.
Women of the early 1900’s were not all shy, retiring types.
However, I’d like to mention that whilst Mary Cassatt was certainly unafraid to voice her opinions, she did respect the global business of art. Her friendships show Mary to be pleasantly malleable and eager to accept positive career direction, regardless of gender.

“Momentary Weakness” a poem © 24th May 2015:
“Momentary weakness is the passing of the night,
the full Moon that rides quietly by,
it’s the Swans for gliding forever high,
on the waves made by our Sun’s rapturous roaring flight,
in a mustering up of energy ready for the invisible fight,
a gathering of thoughts to win out with last breaths might,
as I’ve said before ‘You cannot contain thy spirit’ quite,
when with all thy stand unequalled in this mind, that is ever thirsting for the Light.”

“The Ballet of Swifts & Swallows”
“The eager dances of Swallows flying in erratic playful dives,
Competing the ballet of winged pirouettes with excited cries,
Swifts that scatter in cloudy rain filled skies,
Checking in all directions as dust that appears alive to sweet sunlight sighs,
A tiny bat hungrily at our heads whispering loudly for its find,
Weaving the way through the insect laden murkiness of this dusky night,
Geese chattering shrieks pitched ever high,
Whilst low searching for the glistening of soft blankets below, to plough with their feet like gentle snow.
Yes, this is how at day’s end I see my mind’s eyes on this cushion glow.”

Utmost love for the following
Listening indefinitely for a new place
A calling distinctly thy own.”

A block made by Humankind, its breathing within.
First it’s blow an astonishment,
The building Hammer swift and unyielding for the Second strike.
Those that move around with camels make ancient cakes,
Feet sprout downwards strong as fig roots into the ground.
Palatial Grasses overgrow Dusts by the Water from its Rivers old.
Smiles are The Starry Night,
Peoples of the Vineyards and their Storehouses gather,
Trees spring forth for The Yellow Moon.
Their long necks are made happy,
As Thorns are gathered up for dung.
Even The Horned One recovers and the Grey Tail finds peace.”

Saw you through windows sun behind
Saw you’re hiding thoughts while I smiled
Gotta tell you now, I see so deep
There isn’t much you can hide from me”

‘Two Swifts‘ [an excerpt]
‘As I viewed the soggy sky,
two swifts kept flitting above as for food in the winds,
the airborne sea-like mass,
until they two flew for shelter.
Verily the swift is politer than most,
calling out for the knowing of its place.
None gave to it the rule,
neither was there an asking.
It chose to do so.

seconds merged into a great heavenly battle,
the unrelenting jaws of the sky smashing it mercilessly,
Victorious The Butterfly, obscured under leaf,
as if its arthropodic intugement were hewn from solid gold,
cleaved nay impossibly I ought to explain,
somehow incomprehensibly made by the gods whom certainly knew the like of Perseus himself 🎬🎥’

Rested here for quiet Studied scenes,
For thou art my plateaued Mountain,
Muddy carpeted, oaken Queen,
Thouest Monet painted Spring,
Bejewelled vision thou hast yet seen,
Rabbits hazel-brown, white-tailed hues,
Unforeseen,
Perfect rainbow covered,
Meadow shielded views,
One end to t’other,
Grains of feet an’ barley for thine Meal,
Buzzards Wood rising proud thy Bow,
Wrens Wood drawn aft galloping South.
A tinctured scythe for reaping Hay,
‘If thy made’st thou on thy Potter’s Wheel,
You’d be youthfully kiln fire minted Clay.’”
– a poem by Matt The Unfathomable Artist, copyright May 2021.

“Father of Sci-Fi
the Heat Hearth Ray is here
temperature gauges molten high
and we keepeth saying
thou hast Locusts for Eyes,
Digging deep, molechian
releasing gaseous meths insane
cursive wooden canes
corruption rife
Father of Woe and Strife,
Old Man of Borneo cries
because his homely home fries
the skipping Unicorn of the North died
took its place with the dodo
and white blackened lies,
The predator never softens
its invisible man-like face
with fossil fuelled Gatling paint
charmed mummied balms
beware of baying similed bait,
Watching morphological clay
take on iron bayonetted Centurion
Dalekian-like turreted firepowered display,
Degenerated eliminated biological decay
Gray calls out to fish bellied Lover of They
‘Listen, I have seen these terra-aliens
with row upon row of destructed guillotined
bloody finned melee!’,
Did Man only crawl out since 18th Century
mangle-mired oily burned dimly lit
Anti-Cyclic way?”

Thoughts upon my coat of arms
My coat of arms
Shielded membrane, flexed for action,
Widened hands
Outstretched, outstretched,
Yonder to the Sun
Flaming fireball
Lights seen

Have you ever read

Impermeable, Impassable.

I am the Alien
Did’st thou expect me?
thy Foreign Traveller
distance and time
Do you Art believe?
my journey, my journey,
thrice heavy
girded happy, carrying you,
not yet the half,
not yet the half.

An original writing by Matt The Unfathomable Artist:
“Mountain Home”
“i have a mountain i call home,
it is a place no one knows,
no one [here] goes,
it is free to me,
i travel there everyday,
no one [here] can fathom,
they do not understand,
i make the mighty place a minnow,
the minnow place i make mighty,
i form a planet with my breath [my own breath within],
only so as to travel there one day i choose,
its dimensions i know [for i shall make it that way],
it will be one of my homes [for me],
for now i shall make this home lovelier,
as when the Tree were merely roots in the wet soils,
waiting for me as shade with our Sun.”

Pablo Picasso The Realist
Studying Pablo Picasso tells us one thing immediately..
.. Picasso could paint especially beautifully.
‘Still Life with a Pitcher and Apples’ [c1919] by Pablo Picasso, artwork on paper.
‘Still Life with a Pitcher and Apples’ [c1919] by Pablo Picasso, artwork on paper.
Another example of ‘Still Life with a Pitcher and Apples’ [also c1919], shown above, provides rays of his artistic style. Picasso didn’t view the world the way non-artists do. Everything exuded personality and uniqueness. He loved to turn the ordinary into curiosity.
Picasso couldn’t be ordinary even if he tried his very best. He had the quality of human magnetism through exceptional gifts of persona and talent.
‘Still Life with Compote and Glass’ [1914-15] by Pablo Picasso, Oil on canvas, 63.5 x 78.7 cm (25 x 31 in).
If you would like to read more about Pablo Picasso, please do so here:

‘It is that glass library with a man walking about appearing and disappearing throughout intervals of Time. Telling you all the facts and details of human history, holographically as your kindred spirit, by the use of one indefinite Supercomputer.’

Aelita Andre – Abstract Expressionist Genius
‘Sun Flares and Pegasus’ [2008] by Aelita Andre, acrylic on canvas, 36 ins x 24 ins. Photography by Nikka Kalashnikova.
.. Aelita is just 10 years of age at the time of my writing this article. And yes, when you look at all her most up-to-date work displayed on her website: http://www.aelitaandre.com/ you might become perplexed at how Aelita has work going back to 2008!
Highly respected gallery curator Peter Gagliardi describes Aelita Andre as a genius.
The above artwork ‘Sun Flares and Pegasus’ is undoubtedly the work of a naturally gifted artist regardless of her tender age. It’s reasonable to say that even the most knowledgeable art professionals cannot possibly know every single artwork by every renowned artist of the past 500 years.
There’s always a new masterpiece yet to be discovered..
Her arrangement of colour, use of space and positioning of paints in an orderly chaotic art production is confoundingly beautiful to explore throughout this piece. It’s clear to see that Aelita enters another world whilst she paints.
The Artists Dimension.
Abstract work as a style soars with the sense and feeling of an eagle when it comes to subconscious ideas represented within artforms.
If Expressionism is the perceivable representation of any given physical subject how do we artistically explain expressionist works regarding invisible matter? I do believe this is possible since we can genuinely interpret shared emotions from Abstract-Expressionist works.
The art world makes readily classifiable distinctions between art styles. Reinforcing the art classification table from classical fruit bowls to abstraction.
That the art business is founded on creativity, originality and quality is the reason why Aelita Andre’s work will continue to be sought after.
I chose to write about ‘The Time Before Time’ pictured below courtesy of Nikka Kalashnikova as I’m enthralled by its unusally clever expressionistic quality.
Honestly, as always, this is one of the best artworks for mentally picturing how one might physically imagine TIME itself. Especially as I’m an admirer of the visionary H.G. Wells. It seemed perfectly conceivable to me almost to the point of laughing until solemnly returning to my instantaneously intuitive conclusion..
.. that Aelita has envisaged a believable metaphysical painting of ‘Time’ just as one might artistically reveal atmospheric Earth air, universal space or the various forces of energy.
We have to be entirely serious about being fun. Aelita Andre is commensurate in both.
‘The Time Before Time’ [2015] by Aelita Andre, acrylic and silver leaf on canvas, 30 ins x 24 ins. Photography by Nikka Kalashnikova.
Only learned painters can produce work with such skillful art direction as this. All her own.
Nurture accompanied by natural genetic advantages.
Gwyneth Paltrow has numerous artistic talents that had the freedom to grow in a creative environment. Again though, we’re all unique persons.
We have to learn these things for ourselves.
Aelita’s perceptive awareness made sense of the art around her breathtakingly quickly. All art beyond purely spiritual actuation requires some process of originating physical ingenuity.
Aelita attained personal-artistic-physical control over what she was painting from a very early age.
Born with a natural gift made in about nine months.
Interestingly there are some child geniuses of mathematics whose parents haven’t the slightest idea where their child’s abilities were derived. Even so, parents whose child had reasonable early nurture in any given field at first struggle with the reality that their child is accomplishing feats beyond any ordinary explanation.
‘Swirling Starlight #3’ [2014] by Aelita Andre, acrylic on canvas, 24 ins x 30 ins. Photography by Nikka Kalashnikova.
‘Blue Butterfly’ [2011] by Aelita Andre, acrylic on canvas, 40 ins x 40 ins. Photography by Nikka Kalashnikova.
Deoxyribonucleic acid = DNA.
Strands and fronds float about going to goodness knows wherever they please.
Professional artists inspire and become inspired. Whilst viewing ‘Blue Butterfly’ I began thinking about artworks at the atomic and molecular level as explanations across art genres. The interactive experience roving gleefully over this most artful achromatic-chromatic painting is intensely inspirational.
The capacity for Aelita’s personality and her artworks to inspire people of all ages will firmly establish Aelita Andre as an eminently recognisable international artist. I love her engaging art performances, the irrepressible elegance and attractiveness of her wildly free-spirited pieces.
Aelita Andre is the living definition of an Abstract-Expressionist genius with true star quality.
Sound Waves Art
‘My Wild Big Cat Sound Wave Vocalisation; Artwork [number 1]’ drawn on A4 paper using blue ink pen – June 7th 2016 by Matt The Unfathomable Artist
You may already know I love writing song lyrics and composing melodies. Yes, even singing too.
So it should be no surprise really that I enjoy any art form that might be musically inclusive. Whilst producing my ‘Seismic Waves’ series of artworks I wondered how I might represent sound waves. In order to replicate sound waves in digital on-screen format I changed the point accentuations jaggedly.
Which.. (or is that wice?) nicely brings me to seeing a curious bird that went calling in all directions on the treetop at my local lake. Literally chirping at 90 degrees (not like Joe 90 of the television series) and swiftly shifting its petite form clockwise then chirping again quite loudly. Four times it did this through 360 degrees and repeated the process all again.
I’m quite sure that this proud little bird would make a very beautiful sound wave artwork. The artwork shown immediately below was a pure contrivance. No doubt this sound wave would make a good noise of sorts if processed through digital software.
‘Soundwaves [number 1]’ on A4 paper using blue ink pen – June 6th 2016 by Matt The Unfathomable Artist.
Following on from ‘Soundwaves [number 1] and ‘Seismic Waves’ I thought to myself that it would be exciting to record a soundwave then replicate the visual representation of vocals with an artistic impression.
I chose to create a wild big cat vocal as this has many ideas behind the concept of my first sound/drawn choice. Yes, I appreciate I could have chosen ‘Hello, my name is Matt.’ However the former vocal would be interesting both audibly and visually with its change of tone and pitch peaks. It required some practice. So I personally vocalised for about 5 minutes, making various wild cat sounds before recording.
Here is the recording:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_1g4lrULQoBcXJzN1A1RTdRUEU/view?usp=drivesdk
I strongly recommend Low Hertz Bass Capable Headphones whilst listening to this recording.
Probably not so useful if you’re watching the film ‘On Her Majesty’s Secret Service’ (1969).
A closer look at my ‘wild cat vocal’ ink on A4 paper artwork is shown here:

Perhaps some fine art collectors will raise their eyebrows. Perhaps not. I respectfully appreciate their professional opinion. Basquiat and Warhol is obviously fine art.
It’s definitely worth noting, oops no mistaking the wordplay there, that this sketch artwork immediately above was replicated on the first attempt whilst actually looking at the sound wave.
That said, are the seemingly crazed sounds of a man impersonating wild cats and producing drawings from his vocals fine art? I don’t think it will take 50 years to know the answer. Everyone has their own opinion – I respectfully appreciate this too.
Dali, Picasso, Frida Kahlo and even Jackson Pollock were and are all considered eccentric. Basquiat often listened to music as he felt this helped his artistic ingenuity. Normal behaviour mixed with their extraordinary creativity.
Warhol worked with extreme efficiency of artistic method. Some fashion photographers prefer the freedom of taking hundreds of photographs during a shoot. Some limit themselves to no more than 50 shots or less.
Different working methods. New and reinvigorated ways to create art. Art that inspires people for generations.
I would like to produce a ‘Seismic Wave’ artwork in oil paint on canvas from an actual earthquake (see previous blog article for further details). I also wish to create further ‘Sound Wave’ art impressions from real life recordings.
It got me to thinking. Can you imagine how beautiful…
‘That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.’
… would look like in a sound wave artwork? If anyone knows of such an ink or oil painted artwork please do let me know.
INCREDIBLE.
