Art help???
Minimalism is a movement of a new form of art and is based on breaking down an image to its basic geometric form. In your case apirate picture can be a cirle for the face. Triangle for the pirates hat. A square or circle for the eyepatch. I hope you get the idea.





Cubism is when everything is drawn in a cube like form. A lot of what Picasso is famous for is his abstract cubism art. Check the link below for samples of cubism.





Dada(ism) was a art form developed during the 2nd World War as a form of anti war protest. Poets, writers, performers, and artist expressed themselves during this period and were all considered part of dadaism. In art it is usuallly seen as a collage. In modern times its a painting that from a distance appears to have been pieced together like a collage.





Expressionism-check out the link below





Post Impressionism


What I notice about this art form is that it is not much different that anything that can be done today except that there are no smile, no anger, no action. They are simple with no expressions. Check out Monet and Van Gogh.





Baroque is like the opposite of Post Impressionism in that characters had exaggerated movement. The last supper is an example in that everybody in the painting is doing something. Most of Leonardos DaVinci's work is baroque.
