Before you even starting painting you have to decided what type of material you will be painting on. In modern days you will most likely land on paper as the material you choose to paint on. After choosing to paint on paper you should decide on what type of paint to use. The artist’s painting, I am looking at choose to uses watercolor paints on a watercolor paper. Apparently watercolor paper is made with linters or cotton rags unlike how printer paper is made. Cotton rags are supposedly stronger than wood fibers or linters, as a result the paper is relatively strong. An additional advantage to using cotton rages is it makes the paper flexible, therefor less likely to rip. If you use older pieces of cotton rages you would be recycling, …show more content…
It is used in the grass, tree leaves, and even the house. In the grass texture it is used to make the grass look more realistic. When you look at grass in regular life, it seems to have a texture, and we perceive that as being natural. So, if you draw grass without a little bit of texture you would most likely see the grass as less natural looking. This artist probably realizes to some degree that without texture his drawings wouldn’t look nearly as realistic. In the trees he also used texture to make them seem more realistic. Another group of components that the artist used to achieve their desired look for the painting is called visual principles. The visual principles evident in this painting include unity, proportion, and balance. Unity is where everything comes together as a whole to make one image. Everything looks to be in harmony with each other. The different values of green gave the painting a certain type of harmony, but I also believe that it gave a certain type of unity. Using the color green all around the painting helps to connect one part of painting to the other.
Next, the painting uses proportion with the fence and the house. How proportion is used is the fence is smaller than the house, which looks more normal than the fence and the house being the same size. Balanced is also used in this painting of the house. On the right side of the painting is this large
The artist used an array of colors in the painting to portray his idea. He used different values of colors to show the objects that are getting direct sunlight and those that are shaded. The trees that are in the sunlight have a lighter value of brown on their trunks and a lighter value of green on their leaves, while the trees that are in the shade have darker brown trunks and darker green leaves. The dirt road is a tan color with spots of darker brown to show where the shade lies from the trees. You can tell that the horses and wagons are in the sun because they have a lighter value of color and the artist used a darker
In this painting, two visual elements stand out over all the rest. These elements are that of color and texture. Color in art is an element that has to be phenomenal in order to get recognition and true appreciation from the viewers. In this painting, the colors are rich, vivacious and standout as dark, but bold representations of the uniqueness of it all. The use of brown and yellow and green and grey and white all come together in a harmony of color and unity. As for the texture in the painting, it is that of brisk and roughness that is nature. The sharp edges of the bucks rack and the cold, rough edges of the dead tree show

be created in several ways; by connecting lines to itself, thereby enclosing an area.’ The main shape that caught my eye in this painting was the rectangular shaped rocks use as siding on the outer layer of the tower. The technique that was used in this painting was tenebrism.
The piece is pretty balanced, it is more or less partitioned into four parts by the strong horizontal line in the middle and the road meeting with the edge of the forest vertically, the lighter areas in the top right and bottom left,
When I look at the texture of the painting, I do get a true sense of a wood floor, a wooden bed frame and a piece of fabric hanging from a nail. I think he might have used different techniques for creating various textures in the room. I think the floorboards are of multiple layers of paint, as to create the tones of the wood. I think that the bed frame, however, is just a single layer of paint, almost thin in nature. The texture of the glass in the window gives you a sense that there is an actual surface to the glass. His use of texture gives me a sense that I can walk right into this room.
to temptation, much like Young Goodman Brown did when he gave into the “devil”. Brown's journey, therefore, represents the loss of his innocence when he leaves Faith (his wife and but also a symbol of Brown’s religious conviction throughout the story), to take a walk through the forests with this mysterious man, when his Faith had pleaded him to stay with her which is shown when he tells this devil, “"Faith kept me back awhile." The traveller which accompanies Brown is a symbol of evil and the devil. He makes himself to be as a friend when in fact he is only leading Goodman Brown towards evil and sin. The traveller says, "Wickedness or not," said the traveller with the twisted staff, "I have a very general acquaintance here in New England.
The painting is oil on a canvas about 5 feet tall and 7 feet wide. It was painted on canvas because during the 17th century, wooden panels were expensive, hard to transport, and more likely to warp. With canvas, it simply became an act of obtaining a frame and stretching fabric evenly across, making it weigh less and unlikely to warp from humidity. Similarly, oil was used because of its flexible nature. The paints could be made of and used with numerous media with small additions causing great changes to color, viscosity, and texture. Since they dry slower than other paints, it is easier to change the color or texture to suit the needs of the artist and makes it easier to hide brushstrokes. When looking at the painting in person, since oil was used as the medium, the texture was smooth, but also had a rough texture from the fabric of the canvas. Honthorst must have added more paint for every layer to prevent cracks from forming, a technique created before his
Mexican Americans (Spanish: mexico-americanos or estadounidenses de origen mexicano) are Americans of full or partial Mexican descent. As of July 2013, Mexican Americans made up 10.9% of the United States' population, as 34.6 million U.S. residents identified as being of full or partial Mexican ancestry.[1] As of July 2013, Mexican Americans comprised 64.1% of all Hispanics and Latinos in the United States.[1]
Texture and pattern are very easy to identify in this painting. The street’s cobblestones show texture and pattern in the way that they are arranged. Texture is also demonstrated through the paint strokes on the buildings, the tree, and even the sky. These thick, uneven strokes add a layer of depth and texture to all elements of the painting.
We can also see the use of black shades to create a hole at the bottom part of the rock. With his excellent use of colors, we can identify the good, healthy and green grass from the bad, unhealthy, brown grasses. Looking beyond the main focus of the painting, he uses colors to separate the sky from the land in the background creating a solid form of perspective on the painting. He also uses colors to create water forms as seen behind the young character. Now, for the sky, he uses shades of white to magnificently differentiate the thick clouds from the light ones. He also uses this to create a source to light to the whole area. All these put together creates a splendid, realistic and familiar atmosphere for the viewers to relate with.
Moreover, Caravaggio didn’t want his painting to be unorganized by making the people unrealistic sizes, so he added proportion. Proportion really helps out this picture because it makes it feel realistic. For example, Caravaggio made the man look big even though he is laying down, while making the lady, Judith, look small. This helps because whenever you walk around the store, neighborhood, or work you would see that women are smaller than men, making this painting realistic. If Judith was made bigger and Holofernes was a little smaller it would be unrealistic and the whole painting wouldn’t relate well with each other.
The use of style is when artists were testing the boundaries of creativity. The way that this was accomplished was to have more a mystical background in the painting. This was achieved through using different colors (such as: a backdrop and bright foreground). At the same time, the body features are altered slightly to enhance the appearance of the subject. When
Texture. There are smooth parts in this painting such as the skin of the human, but everything else is rough such as the rocks in the picture.
