Green Fish by Carolyn Utigard Thomas was completed in the year of 2009. The medium Carolyn used was mixed media but on a relatively small canvas, approximately 12 by 16 inches.

True green is the first green you learn about the colors when you are young. When you learn about the colors, there likely was a chart that had each color and a label underneath.

GO!” And, eventually, you go because you don’t want to make your parents mad. When you go outside, you see the grass. In fact, it’s

Looking Green, Old Sport Throughout literature, colors are used to represent feelings, emotions and actions of characters. In the novel The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the color green is used to represent the love story between Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan. As he grew up and worked for his immense fortune, Gatsby transformed his life into one he felt would impress her the most. Fitzgerald uses the color green to represent Gatsby’s perfect image of Daisy, and the greed that engulfs the couple

Jay Gatsby, consistently reaches for the image of a green light on the end of Daisy Buchanan’s dock (117, 152-154). In a basic reading of the text, the image of the green light represents a mysterious symbol or dream that Jay Gatsby is always reaching to achieve. It also epitomizes that he should keep striving to reach his dream of being with Daisy. However, a further reading of the texts suggests otherwise.

probably the most important in this book is “the green light”. Gatsby tell Daisy “‘You always have a green light that burns all night at the end of your dock’”.To Nick this green light was just a light, but in chapter 5 it is revealed that it is more than just a light: for Gatsby it is what represented a dream for him and the dream being: love. In chapter 5, that dream turned into a reality (“His count of enchanted objects had diminished by one.”), and the “green light” was no longer a
