Domenikos Theotokopoulos was born a Greek island called Crete I'n the year 1541. As a young man he traveled to Italy to studie artist there. He also traveled to Spain were he got the nickname " El Geco". El Greco means " the Greek"' I'n Spanish. Many of El Greco painting are based on a religious stories from the bible, especially true stories about Jesus Christ.
He started to learn about painting a monasterie. A monasterie is a place where monks live and study religious stores really serious. He started to use oil canvas because the coloring is way better . The colors make u relies the details of the paintings and brings out the color way of richer and brighter. The buse he us help the wayyou use the buse. If you use a think globs they come out thin.
I'n the painting Burail of orgaz by El Greco,1586.Santo tome,spam@ Giradon/art resource. The picture contains so much different colors all over the painting. The consist on very audacious details. The pictures has a lot of really detail about a person death. The angles over the guy I think means to that he been a good person and he is going to haven. It had mrs than angles I'n the back ground. I think the other people are people he help out though out his years. It can also mean he is a really good person.
To me I think that the picture makes a really good way to show a religious panting. I really think it made me think about what happen to the guy that died. It really want to make me think about how really and how long he put to the picture. The meaning of the painting is that the guy drunk poison and he did I'n the guys hand. So I really think this picture means a lot to people who reads The bible.
So to me I think he really put a lot of time I'n the picture. It shows how good and religious pictures. He really took his time to show all the important detail I'n the photo. That is what I really like about him. So he was a really good artist.
