Joan Miro's 'Hand's Catching a Bird'
This is a somehow modern type of paintings. He did the painting in 1962 and it was done with oil on canvas. As an introduction, The artist tries to guide our eyes from the left bottom of the corner then brings it to the top of the right corner, directly to the bird. The drawings of the character (bird) are simplified, almost cartoonish, and filled with areas of contrast color. Not much of a movement and It is not richly colored that makes it dead and cold but, the only thing that makes it look alive are the organic shapes and the weirdness, abstract and surrealism feel just like most of his works.
Most of my work are influenced by the psychedelic-era. What I like about this painting is that it derives from a different era, but it contains a certain psychedelic element that blends well together.
