Artist: Wassilly Kandinsky was a Russian painter. Kandinsky has a very distinct abstract style, though he makes slight tweaks between works. However, I've noticed that all of his paintings use bright colors, most often the primary colors. While some of the paintings have a dull and somewhat subdued look to them, none of them have a dark theme overall. The shapes he makes tend to be recognizably geometric in nature, though there are are also many of his works, including his “improvisations” that have no definite shape. Even his works depicting scenes from everyday life, are made using primitive shapes and simply strokes, clearly without a focus on detail or realism. While his works had many distinct themes including a horse and its rider, the apocalypse, landscapes, music, geometry, and scientific, all of them seem to share these qualities.
