Francis Bacon (artist)

Francis Bacon was a figurative painter and was well known for his surreal, dramatic and bold paintings. I find his paintings very emotional and feel that the paintings link to his feeling like stress, anger and confusion. The way he marks his paintings also adds even more personality and emotion. For an example if you pictured the screaming pope figure without the marks it would be still a good painting but the figure wouldn't look as angry and emotional. I have done a quick sketch using pen and white paint and applying the media with emotion not thinking about detail mainly how I am feeling this way of using media is very expressive and it really shows.
