Harvey Joiner Woods Scene Analysis
The painting called Woods Scene created by Harvey Joiner is a beautiful representation of woods while the sun shines through the trees. The colors in the painting are light and dark which is extremely appealing to the eye. This piece seems to all fit together well, from the beautiful trees to the ground. As you look at this painting, you get a sense of peace of mind. Many aspects of this painting bring out its rare beauty, however, the sun rays are the first thing that will catch the viewer's eye.
The sun rays in this piece of artwork is magnificent. The top of the canvas starts off in a dark green, and then slowly blends into light green. The colors are so vivid that it made me wish I was there watching the sunset. As you move your eyes

    Painting Analysis: Final Boat By Andrew Palyanov

    For my written analysis, I found this beautiful painting by artist Andrew Palyanov, called Final Boat. The atmospheric perspective of this piece is haunting, demonstrating implied depth and distance despite the fog that only partially obscures the autumn setting. Vertical placement is well-represented, first with a majestic tree closest to the foreground, so close that we can see the details of each leaf and branch. Additionally, the foreground contains a small rowboat, as well as the shallows of the water where tree branches are reflected from directly above. In the middle ground are the gazebo, as well as still more trees on a spit of land that jutts out into the water to overlap the trees on the far side.…

    Formal Analysis Of 'Hilltops' By Franklin Carmichael

    Action lies in the relationship between the artist’s choice of colours, space, and lines. He uses vibrant and rich colours to grab the observer’s attention and to create visual interest. Carmichael made excellent use of space by organizing the composition of the landscape. A foreground, middle ground, and background created depth in his work. Line is a vital aspect of movement and dynamic activity in the painting and was demonstrated through the varying lengths of bold, horizontal brush strokes. Collectively, all these formal elements, the use of contrasting temperatures of colour, thick lines, and solid forms all encapsulate the work’s energetic…

    Trillium Lake At Sunset Analysis

    The prime focus of this piece is Mt.Hood, which is centered in the middle of the picture plane halfway up the canvas. The mountain in the piece is opaque as there are no t-intersections within it. Behind the mountain various tones of orange, red, purple, and yellow are used to create a stunning sunset. Underneath the mountain, short straight strokes of numerous shades of green, blue, orange, and purple were used to create an image of thousands and thousands of trees. Close to halfway on the canvas, the image of Mt.Hood, the sunset, and the rows of trees is reflected on the water of Trillium Lake. Tehan utilizes the same colors she used in the top half of the canvas to create the reflection on the water. Centered on the bottom of the canvas towards the left side of the piece is a railing painted using various tones of brown, black, purple, yellow, pink, and orange. Tehan's delicate use of her pallet knife allowed her to create straight geometric lines for the railing. It also allowed her to give the railing an illusory texture.…

    Just a little bit off from the middle of the painting there is a structure not unlike Stone Hedge in England on top of a hill. Below it there is a river with small sailing ships going around, and on the bank there is a village filled with lots of wooden structures and even further left you can see a man using oxen to plow a field. On the other side of the painting you can see another section of the river where a larger sailing ship is being constructed on its…

    Summary Of Thomas Cole By Thomas Cole

    In this painting, Thomas Cole used the Monocular Cues Relative size, Interposition, and atmospheric perspective to represent depth in his painting. Relative size is perception that occurs when objects that a person expects to be of a certain size appears to be much smaller and is therefore assumed to be much further away. The trees and people are an example of that. While they seem to be of normal size in the front of the picture, they get smaller and smaller as the picture gets “deeper“. Since the normal human mind knows that trees do not have the size of a thumb, it is assumed that the other people and trees in the painting are further away, creating depth.…
