Paul Cézanne was a French artist who is considered a pioneer of the transition from Impressionism to modern art. Born in 1839, he is known for his innovative approach to still life and landscape painting, which combined the loose brushwork of Impressionism with a greater emphasis on structure and form. Cézanne's work was characterized by his use of color and his innovative treatment of space and depth. He was a major influence on the development of Cubism and other modern art movements, and his work continues to be celebrated for its contribution to the evolution of modern art.
Today, Cézanne's paintings can be found in major museums around the world and are highly sought after by collectors. He is regarded as one of the greatest painters of the 19th century and continues to be celebrated for his unique vision and contributions to art history.

We have been enjoying Meet the Masters at Friends Christian School for about 7 years. I am so impressed with the program. It has taught the children not only facts about a particular artist but also a love of art. Many of the students who are not excelling academically find a talent or expression in art that they may not find anywhere else. This builds their self-confidence. I have seen this time and time again. Our MTM teacher has been such an inspiration to our students with her passion and enthusiasm. The way she leads the assembly with slides, hands-on objects, facts, and background of the artist has the kids so intently listening it is amazing. The children are able to recall facts about the artist long after the project, because it is taught in such an interesting and exciting way. Being someone who loves art and creativity I wanted to thank you for this program for our school and thank you for sending a teacher who loves what she does.
We are truly blessed.
