Joan Miro
By 1930 after dabbling in a few fashionable styles of the time, Joan Miro had developed his own style. Miro art is hard to describe. It is characterized by brilliant colors combined with simplified forms that remind of drawings made by children at the age of five. Joan Miro art integrates elements of Catalan folk art. He liked to compare his visual arts to poetry. In contrast to the image of his art, however, he was a solid, hard-working man who preferred to come to gallery exhibitions in dark business suits.
