Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin
(June 7, 1848 - May 9, 1903) Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin was a leading French Post-Impressionist painter. On the subject of line and drawing, Gauguin said in 1879, "One must draw and draw again…It is only by drawing often, drawing everything, drawing incessantly, that one day you are amazed to discover that you have found the way to render a thing with its own character…don't make pretty, clever little lines, but be simple and insist on the major lines that count…" His bold experimentation with coloring led directly to the Synthetist style of modern art...
