William Turner was born on April 23, 1775 above his father's barber shop. William grew up sketching pictures,and he focused more on architecture. At the age of 14 William started attending the Royal Academy of Art in London and began to draw the sea. The objects in William's paintings became harder to see, he began to focus more on light and darkness in his paintings. William never married,but his father got old and lived with William for thirty years but time caught up with his father. William sometimes gave his paintings really long titles to explain his painting for example "Snow Storm: Steam-boat off a Harbor's Mouth Making Signals in Shallow Water, and Going by the Lead. The Author was in this Storm on the Night of Ariel left Harwich"

Rembrandt was a man who painted people. He was born in the Netherlands on July 15, 1606. Eventually, people started not wanting to get themselves painted. So he thought,"What if I could paint myself?" So he started doing self portraits of himself using a mirror. You might think he would get bored of painting himself, and that's why he used different emotions and dressed up. He made hundreds of self portraits of himself. Other people started doing self portraits of themselves. He became famous all around the world for creating the self portraits.
Researched by: Luke Merrick Leonardo da Vinci was a painter and a inventor of many things. Today he is known for his art, but of course he still made many inventions. Some of his inventions were the early flying machines, ariel screw, parachutes, and armored cars, just to list a few. It is believed that he started created these inventions in the 15th century. When Leonardo first started, he created the first ever modern-day flying machine. Most of the paintings he made you may recognize. Some examples are The Last Supper, The Mona Lisa, St. John the Baptist, and Portrait of a Man in Red Chalk. There may be others that you know, but I can't list all of them. ;) He started painting in 1478 when he was an apprentice to Andrea del Verrocchio. He was born on April 15th, 1452 near the Tuscan town of Vinci. A LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time ago. That is Leonardo and his life. :) |
