Yanet Bonilla Art Class

As I was looking at many different biomorphic artists I came upon an artist named Victor Brauner’s. His work caught my attention right away. His painting pieces were very creative. Brauner was not only a painter but he also created a couple of other forms of art such as assemblages, sculptures, posters and illustrations.
