Ripples By Claude Monet
Swish, swish, drip drip, the water flows swiftly as the frogs jump causing ripples by drops of water. The flowers bloom and the sun shines on this display. The bright pink flowers shine as pink as any other flower, and the flowers smile up at the sky, eager to bloom.
Imagine standing near the pageant in real life. Seeing ripples, frogs, and flowers smiling up to the sky. The water shows shades of green. After the ripples clear away, the water appears very smooth and calm.

This painting, created by Claude Monet, a Frenchman, shows a lot about a pond, with lily pads, flowing water, and flowers blooming from the lily pads. The painting, created on oil and canvas, expresses a moment in time, “which fills entirely by a horizon of water,

    Water Lilies Mark Tansey Analysis

    Water Lilies, done by Mark Tansey in 1994, is a monochromatic oil painting of the flooding of Claude Monet’s water lily garden in Giverny, France in 1910. The painting depicts Monet's calm water lily pond being flooded by the rising waters of a nearby river. What immediately pulls you into this painting is the use of blue. Mark Tansey primarily paints in monochrome and can really reflect the mood of the color in the painting itself. On the right side of the painting the rough and turbulent waters of the river have broken through the wooden fence around the edge of the lily pond. The waters of the river are flowing through the broken fence and are beginning to stir up the calm pond. In the lily pond we of course see lilies but we can also see a clear reflection of the large, dark, full clouds in the sky. On the left of the painting ice is…

    Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts Art Critique: “the Wave” by Alexander Harrison

    When you first look at the painting your eye is drawn to a distinct horizontal line that depicts the horizon over the water. There are also curved lines throughout the piece where the waves are located, many of which make up either the ripples over the sand or waves breaking on the shore. These curved lines are what move your eye from the horizon towards the water moving forward as the wave breaks and moves along the sand.…

    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…

    When the viewer first lays eyes on this painting, they are brought to the center of the photograph. The sharp contrast of Napoleon’s deep red cloak, a symbol of vigor and courage, stands apart from the dark and cloudy background. The eye’s then continue from the cloak, past his face, and up to his outstretched finger, which is pointing to the heavens. This gesture, made by Napoleon, instills in the viewer a notion of the future…

    Behind this body of water there is a dark grey form of a stretched out mountain. Beyond that mountain there is darker shade of blue water with its own dark shade of grey formed stretched mountain. Above each mountain there are white, sort of fluffy, long clouds hovering over and are about the same length as the subject they hover over. This brings you to focus on the top section of the art. The brightly lit, light blue, slightly cloudy sky takes up the top half of the art.…

    Claude Monet Water Lillies Analysis

    Claude Monet’s painting Water Lilies illuminates a pond of water lilies by transitioning from darker shades around the edges to lighter ones in the middle. The lilies are spread out just enough apart to make them somewhat recognizable. If not looked at closely this could be viewed as a patch of colors. There is a dewy look because of the different shades of greens and blues Monet chose to use. While there may be a central point within the painting, the viewers’ eyes can easily scan the entire painting as a whole. The scene appears impeccably balanced in every aspect, however actually has more weight on one side than the other because of the thickness of the lilies and how close they are together. Upon viewing this painting there is a appreciation of peace based on the smoothness in each stroke vertical and circular. Certainly not everyone will have the same feelings and it could be easily perceived negatively because of blurred and dreary colors. Robert Hayden’s poem “Monet’s Water Lilies” speculates that while there is evil in the world, there is always a special place to escape whether inside a book, a quiet corner at a coffee house, a poem or even a painting. Hayden’s poem brings Monet’s painting alive by exposing his…

    Art a small word consist of just three letters, but has huge meaning. It has not any boundaries or limits. Art can be define in words but sometimes we can express it more accurately and beautifully without words.

    Examples Of Alcoholism In The Black Cat

    Alcoholism Can Lead to Violence In Edgar Allen Poe’s, “The Black Cat”, the theme that alcohol can lead to violence is illustrated when the narrator mutilates his cat, hangs his cat, and murders his wife. First, one evening the narrator returns home in a drunken stupor, seizes his favorite pet, a black cat named Pluto, and gouges one of the cat’s eyes out. The narrator “knows himself no longer” (5); alcohol has changed his mind and the thoughts it contains. The narrator is not the mild, caring man he once was before he ventured into alcoholism; he is now an abusive, violent and short-tempered man.…

    Comparing Chiura Obata’s “Landslide” and “Sunset Water Tower”

    The “Landslide” painting is unique in itself but also shares some characteristics with Chiura Obata’s “Sunset Water Tower.” This painting is similar in that it was done with watercolor on paper, has a horizontal orientation and was done in the same time period; 1943. This painting differs however with the use of light, colors, use of line and theme. This painting is of a water tower in the middle of a field, with farms surrounding it and mountains in the background, giving it a variety of landscape. It also has a sunset overtop of the water tower leading into light clouds. Hence the name “Sunset Water Tower.” The use of line is very noticeable in this painting. “Sunset Water Tower” is more acceptable in which the time period it was created. The lines are symmetrical with more use of lighter colors. This work of art follows on a horizontal line in which one can see because of the sunset.…
