Piet Mondrian

Piet Mondrian is worked with his art through the War which ended 1918 where he then moved back to France Mondrian began producing grid-based paintings in the late 1919, and in 1920, the style for which he came to be renowned began to show.

"All painting – the painting of the past as well as of the present – shows us that its essential plastic means we are only line and color." Mondrian believed all things were simply line and colour and wanted to show this in his work which in the later years became a little more abstract yet with a more focal point to it.




I believe this style will work well with what I am trying to accomplish, no to have lines and primary colours but texture and composistion and there is no one better for shape and composition than Modrian which is why I want to incorporate his style into my work.
