My name is emmy and i like to blog, and go to school, and do homework, and take tests, and write papers, and live in london, and deal with the slow internet, and get good grades, and dance and eat crunchie mcflurry's while i do school work, and sleep through my alarm, and sit in class from nine am to four thirty pm, and admit to the fact that half of those things may or may not be true.
William Gilpin was an experienced landscape artist living in 16th century England. He focused his work on the British isles and preferred overgrown scenery rather than a well groomed garden. He felt that overgrowth true beauty had many different textures and appreciated, roots and other twisted elements of nature. He felt that many artists capture the stereotypical view of nature in a perfect state. And although he did often find these views beautiful, he personally felt that nature should be viewed its natural state. He worked with the idea that the elements in a painting should work together to create a picturesque scene. He often used surrounding architecture to highlight the land around it.
