Alexander Bogomazov born April 7, 1880 in Yampil – on June 3, 1930 was a painter that not only had work in cubism but in futurism as well. In his paintings you can see good use in space as he worked with the rule of the three’s. You can tell each object was chosen carefully and placed in such a way to keep your eye engaged in each painting. I see rhythm and movement. Colors where painted dark to light and there is dynamic contrast. Light colors with used for highlights and to show directional light. I enjoy his own version of his self portrait and how light colors were blended in such a way to look like realist skin color.
