Claude Monet was a famous French artist and he was the primary inspiration for the new art movement of impressionism. Some paintings he was using a luminous range of colours over a light background. I like how he used mixed colours and the textures of his paintings to make them more real and natural.
Claude Lorrain was also a French painter. He travelled to Italy to study and was a leading landscape painter in that country during his lifetime. His inspiration drawing is from the shape and features of the countryside around Rome but his paintings were imaginary compositions. Claude Lorrain painted lightly and lively for his pictures by making some details hidden away in his paintings. I think that his paintings are based on what he loved the actual study of nature. He had the same in using colours as Claude Monet and the main colours are actually light and bright.
