500 colors can change history by Paulo Marcelo Ferreira de Rezende
About the Art
Wandy Warhol, Henri Matisse and Vincent van Gogh changed forever the concept of art at their time; with iconic paitings using less than 12 colors each. What can YOU do with 500 different collors? How far can you go? What stories will you tell? The banner: The number is the number of colors in each painting. At the left of the number, are those colors used, named after 500 Pencils names. People will wonder how far can they fly in power of so many colors. And usually those who would pay for the pencils are artists, illustrators and people who know art in general. So let's tempt them to do great art pieces as well.
