How Yves began art
Yves never really was involved with art or started as a kid like most artists. He became interested in art at the end of his military service. When he returned to paris and stumbled upon a Giorgio de Chirico painting that he was so deeply impressed with he decided to become a painter even though he was never trained.
Tanguy's Unique Style
His paintings have a unique, recognizable style of
nonrepresentational surrealism usually having abstract landscapes in a limited palette of colours with rarely any contrasting colours and various abstract shapes.
What his paintings were about
Unique Fact:
He took the title of most of his works from psychiatric textbooks
Yves didn't make his art about things going on in the world but instead he used things that happened to him throughout his lifetime with loads of imagination and thinking added to it.

But First,
What is Surrealism?
(In My Definition)
Surrealism is a heavily creative art movement in which the art piece puts a twist on reality in an unnatural and non logical way
