WASSILY’S ART CAREER

In 1896 Wassily moved to Munich, Germany and began his art career.

Wassily painted with many things like the canvas , water colors, paint, and bright and dull colors. Most pictures that Wassily did were abstract.

Wassily did move back to Russia, and when he did he painted only a little in that time.

One of Wassily’s first painting was Composition IV (four).

Wassily was one of the first people to make an abstract art painting.

My favorite painting by Wassily is called around the circle, and that is what this picture is.

Most of Wassily’s paintings areabstract, and I really like abstractart so that is why I chose Wassily Kandinsky.

I also learned a lot of things on Wassily Kandinsky. Allthe things that I found on Wassilywere interesting.

I really like Wassily Kandinsky and I am glad I choose him.
