Field and meadow art has been a popular decoration for nearly every venue imaginable, including domestic and professional locales. This type of art depicts the beautiful interactions of
nature and how we, as humans, interact with it. The styles of this type of art are diverse thanks to the many artists that choose to work with the subject.
However, some of the most memorable and emotive pieces of art ever created have had fields and meadows as their subject matter.
Artists choose to depict different aspects of nature and human interaction in their work. Some of the most famous field and meadow works were created by artists such as Jean Francois Millet, Andrew Wyeth, and Thomas Kincade. However, these works all encompass different aspects of human interaction with the
natural world.
In Millet's 'The Angelus', the hard work and simple faith of colonial Americans is explored, while Andrew Wyeth rails against those same themes in his dream-like depiction of 'Christina's World'. And Thomas Kincade uses illumination techniques in his artwork to reveal comforting scenic areas where God's love is evident in each flower and shrub.
However, these artists are only a few of the examples of diversity contained in this seemingly placid form of art. Field and meadows art is subtle but tells a story as old as time itself, that of man against working with, or against, the forces of nature and the universe.
