He was a socialist, defineSocialism refers to various theories of economic organization advocating public or direct worker ownership and administration of the means of production and allocation of resources, and a society characterized by equal access to resources for all individuals with a method of compensation based on the amount of labor expended.

Most socialists share the view that capitalism unfairly concentrates power and wealth among a small segment of society that controls capital and derives its wealth through exploitation, creates an unequal society, does not provide equal opportunities for everyone to maximise their potentialities and does not utilise technology and resources to their maximum potential nor in the interests of the public.

He was also a believer in anarchy, define:Anarchy (from Greek: ἀναρχίᾱ anarchíā, "without ruler") may refer to any of the following:

"No rulership or enforced authority."
"Absence of government; a state of lawlessness due to the absence or inefficiency of the supreme power; political disorder."
"A social state in which there is no governing person or group of people, but each individual has absolute liberty (without the implication of disorder)."
"Absence or non-recognition of authority and order in any given sphere."

Define Neo- impressionism:Neo-impressionism was coined by French art critic Félix Fénéon in 1886 to describe an art movement founded by Georges Seurat.Science-based interpretation of lines and colors influenced neo-impressionists’ characterization of their own contemporary art . Pointillism technique is often mentioned, because it was the dominant technique in the beginning.(wikipedia)

What do you like and dislike about this artist: I think his art is not that bad. It's better than some of the other impressionists. I prefer more realistic paintings.I don't like the fact that in some paintings I can't even tell what it is suppose to be. So over all I don't like the Impressionists.
