"The Kiss" by Gustav Klimt

Abigail

“Love the art, not the artist. Despite being a known womanizer, Klimt has a particular way of painting his subjects that is striking from both an artistic standpoint and a design standpoint. I read in a book once that he treats his portraits like landscapes and his landscapes like portraits and I feel that's such an interesting sentiment”

“Klimt has always been a huge inspiration to me. Although my artwork is not reflective of his style, in my early art classes, I recreated his “Portrait of Adele Blochbauer” with my face in lieu of the real figure’s.”
