 * Diego Rivera **

This Image Was From: []

I decided to do Diego Rivera Because He is Very Interesting To do a Project on. He is a very hard working artist. One of my favorite drawings is the diego rivera carrier flowers. Diego Is a nice,young hard working man and he has inspired me to create this picture I hope to look forward seeing more of his paintings. Diego Rivera, was born December 13, 1886 in Guanajuato, Mexico. He was a Draughtsman and a mural painter who usually, used sketchbooks and had small Scale-Drawings into cartoons. He painted portraits of his family, friends and even his wives .He loved to draw portraits of society women and movie stars. Rivera grew up in Mexico City, and attended the San Carlos Academy of Fine Arts. He also worked in the studio of Jose` Guadalupe Posada, who lead the printmaker of the period. Between 1907 and 1921, he traveled in Europe experimenting with numbers and styles. Later he had returned to Mexico and so did his friend’s Jose` Oronzo and David Siqueiros initiated the Mexican mural Renaissance.He died November 24, 1957 at the age of 71.

For my art choice I did a picture of a Mexican boy in a field standing on a box he created. His name is Diego Rivera and he is on his way to a wonderful journey to the jungle. He has Blue Overalls, a white shirt and no shoes. He has no shoes because his grandmother always told him a jaguar could run faster barefoot. He went on his journey and now he is in the middle of Mexican Plain which is a Field with crops and grass. His friends call him river boy or rivers.

For this art choice I used Pastels and paints. The colors I used were Yellow paint, Golden Paint, Green Paint for grass, and White Paint for the arms of Diego. For pastels I used, like a yellowish- orange color for his sombrero, black for his hair and his pupil in his eye, Dark blue for his overalls and a light blue and a dark blue for the beautiful sky also orange for the lines coming out of the sun. I had gotten the real picture from the internet and brought my own ideas into this picture by adding background.

In conclusion Diego Rivera, Who had gotten me started on this Beautiful picture ,really inspired me. This picture took a long time to complete. It took a lot of time to create this and a lot of effort. Thank you for looking at my wiki site. I hope anyone who sees this will know it took a lot of work and they can create the same thing too.
