I like Kyffin Williams’ paintings as many of them capture the colours and landscapes of North Wales where my family is from. This one is called ‘Farmer and dog Penrhiwiau’. I like that it looks almost cartoon-like but the colours are very much like real life in this area.
And here is the picture!
Hi Bob Jones
That picture must be inspired also that look very imaginative
Who created this picture?
It was done by an artist called Kyffin Williams who was from North Wales. He worked as a teacher for a while in Highgate School.

Hi Lola,
Seeing as you like dog paintings, I thought I would research some for you. Here is one.
From Esther.

Hi Bob, what inspired you to add this picture?
Hi Bob, I really like this painting. It reminds me of the painting of the sheep dog posted in by lola!
Hi Bob
I agree with you that it looks cartoonish and it really shows that Wales is a lovely place
My favourite painting is called The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dali. The like the relaxing and soothing colours of the landscape. I find the images of the clocks melting very interesting as I it makes me wonder what message the artist is trying to convey.
Richard very good!!!
I like Salvador Dali as well I really like how much detail you put in thank you for an example the rest of us we can all learn from you!!!!!!
Hi Richard I reall liked that I can learn from you and I liked how you looked at the picture then you wrote why you like it

Bonjour!!!!!!! Richard
That was very lovely.
What I like about this piece of work by Salvador Dali
I like what you’ve done I love what art work you’ve produced
GOOD WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This picture reminds me of the world melting
I think this painting is very intresting. The background is well painted as it looks very eye-catching. I think the objects in the centre look quite surreal and makes you form your opinions on why the artist has painted in this way. I definitly argree with your comment.
I like the painting that you done besause it is brilint
This is my favourite player Lionel Messi. A fantastic new project undertaken by German illustrator Simon Prades, who is illustrating one defining moment per day from the latest drama from World Cup 2014 in Brazil.
Including the likes of Mario Balotelli’s winner v England, the genius of Leo Messi and Brazil’s dodgy penalty v Croatia, there’s bound to be lots more great illustrations to come. I like this painting because it looks very colourful!
GREAT CHOOSE OF PAINTING
THAT LOOKS SOOOOOOOO AWESOME
I personally think it isn’t that colourful but it gives you that impression
My favourite picture is The Wave by Hokusai.
I like this picture because of the drama and movement in it. I also like the different shades of blue and grey that the artist has used.
I wonder if the people on the boat are scared, or if this is a usual day at sea.
Lucy – teacher at Duncombe
We love this picture because of its many different shades of blue. An artistic touch!
I think your picture is very calming and makes you think a lot. It is like you are actually there by the seashore watching the waves get bigger and bigger.
I like it
Hi Lucy Asha from Duncombe great example
Asha-Pupil at duncombe
I once saw a painting like that but instead of the white it was rabbits
Hey Bob Jones, we thought your picture of choice was spectacular, so we decided to search more of Kyffin Williams’ paintings and found this one. Me and Ihsan (my friend) like this picture because the shades of colour have a touching and enchanting point of view!
Although, we do not exactly know what the picture is called so can you, or anybody else, help us?
-Harvey Cullen and Ihsan Ahmed (Pupils at Duncombe Primary School)
Hi Harvey and Ihsan! Great that you like his paintings too! I can’t find the title of this one, however my Aunt is an expert on his work so I’ll ask her and get back to you about it.
It would be great if you could someday visit the mountains of North Wales, then you could see what inspired his art.

Well done Harvey and Ishan. I like the way you’ve shown interest in someone else’s choices and you’ve done further research so you can learn something new.
Thank you for sharing with us.

Thanks
Esther
Hi Esther,
You need to save the images on your computer… then select it and it will insert…
Looks like you worked it out anyway.
sorry i couldn’t find out what the painting is called, but i did find another Kyffin Williams painting that i really like because he has mixed colours and made some really beautiful ones!
My favourite painting is the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci .
I like it because of the deep textures in the painting and the colours that are made from the different shades.
It looks magnifecent!
Naz – Pupil at Duncombe Primary
I like the painting made by Vincent Van Gogh because I like the smoothing of colours and it is a really calm setting as well.It looks like its a big tornado.
PS: The picture is called The starry night!!!
I love this painting you have put up. The sky is very butterfly and clourful. I can get why you love this master piece.
This picture is inspiring and evocative, and I like it’s many swirling colours. I wonder who lives in this town/village, and if the night sky really does look like that?

Thank you for your questions Martha… they help us to think more about the paintings that are shared and are thoughtful…
I like the colors he has used and if you stare at it for a while it looks like the sky is moving.:-)Mimi-Rose
I wonder if any one important lives there
I like this drawing created by Claude Monet
I like this piece of art because its made with
thought and Claude Monet is really put thought in it before he starts so that’s we I chose Claude Monet
This is probably been inspired by everyone.
Bonjour!!! Richard,
that very nice
My favourite piece of art is the Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci. I love the deep textures mixing in with the flow of dark colours. It is my favourite painting because it is truly a masterpiece.
While visiting the Tate Britain with my class I discovered this portrait. It has become one of my favourite art pieces. I found the story behind it very interesting. It is said that the two pictures in this portrait are of twin sisters who were born on the same day, married the same day and had children on the same day.
It often makes me wonder how connected twins are in real life?
This is a Marvellous painting! I love the connection between the two sisters, and their slightly different characters! One of them (on the left) has an evil glint in her eye, whereas the other looks pale and worried, as if she’s hiding something.
I wonder if they dislike, or like each other?
WOW!! They had children on the same day! I read that the artist is unknown! One of the ladies eyes are brown and the others were blue-so apparently they are not identical!
wow!that is really strange to have most things on the same days.can you look up who the artist is because i would really like to look up some other paintings done by the same artist.
My favourite painting is by Miro. It is called ‘Dog Barking at the Moon’. I like it because it is very colourful and fun. It is also a striking image with simple shapes.
We really like this painting by Pablo Picasso because it has detail in the man, and the colour of the tone matches the background of the painting.
Our favourite painting is The Sheaf, by Henri Matisse. It was presented at Tate Modern a few months ago, and was part of the exhibition, Matisse Cut Outs. When Matisse could no longer paint, he chose colours and shapes for his many assistants to cut out and stick on.
We like this painting because of its many colours, and artistic shapes.
I like it too the leafs are all different colurs it is like spring in one painting.
The painting is called Annunciation by Leonardo da Vinci (1475–1480).
What I like about this painting is that it is very beautiful and colourful.
We like the painting because it describes her feelings perfectly and it shows what state she is in.This picture is called the Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci
the old guitarist is a fantastic piece of art by Pablo Picassio as it is very creative. in this scene, and old guitarist is playing the guitar. The dim moonlit room is dark and mysterious, apparently 3 figures have been found hidden in the background. We think it is a brillient piece of work and we hope you think the same.
Leonid Afremov, born in 1955 is as painter. His painting are often vividly-coloured landscapes, cityscapes and figures, and are typically painted using a palette knife and oil paint. This painting is called “The street of light and life”. It inspired me to paint more coulerful pictures and that the cloulers don’t have to be perfect.
hi,i like this painting to i love the colour shades . when i saw this painting i loved it so much that i looked up the paintings this painter has done they are amazing
hi mimi-rose i loved the painting by Leonid Afremov i got really interested in his paintings that i looked up some more of his paintings i found a lovely one it looked like the sun was coming down and i thought it was really interesting the way that we used all the colours so well
I like it a lot too! You can see a reflection of the sun in the water and the palm trees make the sea look tropical.

This peahen is by Elsa Rand. It is called Miss Peahen. I like the colours Elsa has used and the texture in the painting. It is not a famous painting but was at first displayed in a mason in Turkey but then Elsa brought to her home country in Brazil. She dose other work and is dreaming of being a famous artist. Many people adore her work and I’m one of them.
Hi Mimi Rose! The painting you chose (Miss Peahen by Elsa Rand) is Fantastic! I love it’s artistic touch, and its many interesting materials. I have learnt a great deal about this artist, and would love to hear more about him! Martha 🙂
🙂 This painting is from Van Gogh, i like this because its colorful. Also i like it because it shows nature.
i like the way the artist has used the countryside as a setting the summer touch makes the painting cheerful
Another one of my favourite paintings is Starry Sky by Vincent Van Gogh. He had included lots of textures and colours.

I like this picture because it has lots of different colours. I also think that it is beautiful and it includes some of my favorite things – the sea, volcanoes and birds. It is a Japanese woodblock print by Hiroshige of Mount Fuji from Sata Point.

This painting is called Golden hamster it is by Cyra R.Cancel. She was born in Florida. I like the hamster because its cute. The painting has two symbols. 1. The cherry shows that the hamster is hungry. 2. Night time shows that the hamster is sly and sneaky.
oh i forgot to post the painting…. oops
James Doran made this wonderful sculpture. It has no real name but people call it “the running beach”. I like this sculpture because it relay shows the different between a running man and a running horse.
hi mimi thats a really nice sculpture.But i’d like to know if James Doran only does sculptures or if he does paintings as well.
James Doran dose not only do sculpture he dose many others but he likes painting. The is a portrait he did of Twat Nicko they are very close friends It is my favorite , it is called ” Brother From A Other Mother”.
Wow thank you for answering my question. James Doran is a really good painter.
I love this picture because the horses looks very cool
I like the way how this painting has lots of bright colours.
I also like the boat in the little river or pond.
This is the last supper by Leonardo Da Vinci. It shows the final meal between Jesus and his Apostles. Looking closely at the picture, one Apostle looks like he is holding a bag and trying to grab something. Can he be the one who portrays Jesus?
i like this painting because the artist has used some really nice bright colours. The cherry blossom tree is a really nice colour and you can see that the sun is shining on the bridge and reflecting onto the cherry blossom tree and onto the lake.
Hi Ava i love the cherry blossom on the lake . I like the way he used the reflection i found some nice paintings using reflection and i would like to know your apinion about the painting i really like it i hope you do.
WOW!!!! I love it. The artist has used some really nice colours. I like how on the left hand side of the painting there is a little torch hanging on the door it’s amazing how he’s made it look like a real torch. I also like the reflection in the little river that flows through the middle of the painting.
i like this leonid alfremov paintin because he uses lots of different colours. i like this sun set because it makes the sky a different colour to blue.
I love this painting too, and how the painter’s used so many colours to make it.
Hi , as you know i have posted lots of paintings by leonid alfremov i love his art work and i found a lovely painting by leonid alfremov. I love the way the colours stand out i love the way there are so many colours in the painting. He put a lot of detail and effort to he painting .
