The Power of Great Paintings
Todd Mrozinski is a fine artist MIAD alum who graduated in the spring of 1997. Mrozinski primarily dabbles in natural realism, as seen in his portfolio site. It's no surprise Mrozinski would take such a liking to the MAM show of European masterworks because a lot of his work mirrors the happenings of each painting he finds alluring. 
He describes the piece "A Bowl of Plums" by Jean Baptiste Simeon Chardin in such a delicate way. He carefully uses adjectives with such specific gravity to the painting making his perceptions of the piece profound, accurate, and dissected. 

The attention to "The texture of the canvas itself creates the illusion of soft peach fuzz. Four precisely placed yellow brushstrokes build the brightest color of the fruit to create the illusion of plumpness." (Mrozinski) creates such a conscious and specific observance of the piece. The way he can so easily point out these subtleties is most likely because his work has mirrored these nuances for many years. 


He sees himself in these little details making the physical analysis of the piece so much more accurate.
