In My POV: Top 3 Paintings With Special Meaning


I love paintings with meanings, i will blog about the 3 most inspiring paintings and visual art piece that really inspire the artist side of me.

3. John Holcroft's Magnet

It's not a painting. It's a digital visual art. John Holcroft is my most favorite visual artist. His works are great, meaningful, expressive and satirical. It is always entertaining to just look at his work and trying to interpret the meaning within the piece. 

The Magnet is just one of his work which in my POV, telling a story of modern day career pattern. More and more people nowadays desire to work for the huge blue chip companies and less people willing to create their own path and start up their own business. However, all are just in my POV, different person might have different views when they look at this piece. For more, visit his site: John Holcroft

2. Pawel Kuczynski's Trouble

I'm not sure the title of this painting is "Trouble", since in Pawel's page, he never have a title shown. Pawel Kuczynski is my all time favorite illustrationist! His works are always infused with meaningful thoughts. 

The Trouble, in my POV, representing the power of wealth. Where in reality, most of the people who able to reach a destination of their target when they have the wealth in their pocket. This piece brought my mind to another meaning of it. That's the whole idea which makes me love Pawel's arts. It also hinted "trouble". If reaching to the other side is the goal of life, there will be many other ways for the smaller cars owners to do so... if they have the intelligence to do so. 

Pawel's art work always inspire my mind to think beyond, out of the frame. I really want to write about all his works and how his works inspires me in this blog someday when I'm free. For more of his works, visit his official page at: Pawel Kuczynski

1. Hans Holbein's The Ambassador

Finally, of course, the greatest master of all! Hans Holbein the Younger! His "The Ambassador" is a masterpiece of a genius. Every details of the painting blows my mind! I don't want to repeat again what the other articles had been written about the piece. This piece is so well known, that every details of it had been heavily discussed all over the world. You may read from Wikipedia about the details.
