Inspiration: James Jacques Joseph Tissot
I first discovered Tissot (1836-1902) when I saw his etchings at the AGO during the late 90's (I think) and instantly fell in love with his work. It's one of those "Holy Cow! This is just too amazing" moments for me, you know?
The romantic in me also was really enamoured by love story between him and and his muse Kathleen Newton, an Irish divorcée. (You can read more about it here).
Unfortunately, I don't hear much about James Tissot's works these days, so I thought I'd feature him here, as his work is one of the reasons I became interested in fine arts (aside from Van Gogh). To this day, I still look at his drawings and paintings for inspiration...for what is possible.
