Unit 4 Amazing artVan Gogh's paintings are amazing representations of his view of the world. The colors jump off the canvas, not only because of their brightness but also because of the brush strokes. Van Gogh avoided light, feathery strokes, which would portray typical subjects. Instead, he used his brush and oils to make layers that built the painting until it was almost threedimensional.Perhaps one of the most memorable examples of Van Gogh's use of color and brush style is his painting The Starry Night. The sky swirls across the canvas, while the stars shine with unearthly brightness. Each brush stroke creates the image of movement. Under the sky rests a village painted with smaller strokes and finer detail，giving the impression of peace. A large tree in the foreground suggests that the view is enjoyed from the top of a hill, which offers a glance of the beauty of the night sky. The Starry Night shows Van Gogh's great ability to create a powerful image with simple subjects.Van Gogh spent only the last ten years of his life painting. He is believed to have sold only one of the 900 paints he created during those years. Yet Van Gogh today is considered one of the greatest artists of all time. His influence is evident; many painters mimic his style and use of color. His artwork can be found in museums all over the world and is valued in the millions of dollars, a testament to Vincent Willem Van Gogh's talent.开启快乐学习之旅梵高的画作是他的世界观的惊人表现。他的绘画充满活力，不仅因为颜色的亮丽，还因为画笔的笔触。[知识点击]1．canvas n. 画布2．stroke n. 笔画3．portray vt. 描写4．swirl vi. 打旋5．testament n．证明模块核心素养导航第一课时 Starting out & Understanding ideasⅠ.词汇初探1．greet vi.& vt. 迎接...
