Amy Talluto

This week, I tried to find something relating more to nature. An excellent example of a nature artist is Amy Talluto. Talluto was grew up in New Orleans, painting and photographing large landscapes. She was more attracted to the wild landscapes, than normal everyday backyards. In Talluto's art, you can see the fine detail of each precise figure.  Many of her paintings are in settings of the forest. As you first look at these paintings, you may think they are pictures because of each specific detail, but as you look closer, you can see that it is all a painting, which Talluto made.

In this painting, you can tell that Talluto captures the moment within, because each object has it's own detail. She captures the reflections in the water, and also the sun gleaming down from the sky behind the trees.

In this painting, Talluto does an amazing job at capturing the movement of the stream. You can tell that Talluto knows her knowledge on nature. There is no human activity in sight in each pertaining, only mother nature surrounded by it's beauty. Many of us forget how beautiful nature can be because we would rather stay inside. Wildness still exists throughout many parts of the world, for now, if we keep it that way at least.
