Georges Seurat’s painting of “A Sunday on La Grande Jatte -1884’” depicts tranquilize people located on the island of La Grande Jatte. Looking closer into the background there are soldiers and regular looking people in the back with one typical guy with higher class people in the foreground. It like a unanimity between social class to enjoy a sunny day on a island. Looking closely into the painting there are tiny strokes of lines creating leaves on the ground and on the tree‚ but also everywhere

But‚ the texture and colors of the water make it abstract and different from the common blue water in the real world because the

The Cabin The bone chilling howl of the wind brutally pounded my back‚ as I crawled through the deep siberian snow which was stained red. I felt the warm blood oozing down my left thigh from the deep cut. Every inch I crawled‚ the pain sent shockwaves of pain through my entire body. It seemed as if I had been crawling for miles and miles‚ but in reality I was barely 400 yards away from the snowmobile‚ thinking if only I would have tired to stay and find out the truth. Through the dim headlights

Post-Impressionist painters were fond of using color to portray certain emotions in their works.

A lot of times‚ dark‚ cool colors are made to show darker emotions‚ and light‚ warm colors are added where happy emotions radiate out in a painting.

Variety is pretty self explanatory in this piece. From the animals to the structures depicted in the inner panels‚ not a single subject is exactly the same. There is a large diversity of animals from common animals that we recognize to mystical animals that appears in mythology.

Description: Koger’s skyscape painting imitates the Aurora Borealis with the narration of a fantasy story.

“A Sunday on La Grande Jatte” had a style that‚ once I took a closer look‚ surprised me somewhat. The painting seems to be made with many dots. It’s very impressive that the artist took the time and had the talent to use dots in such a way. Of course‚ it may have been the type of brush he used‚ or it is a painting technique that I do not yet know‚ but it certainly adds to the feel of the painting. I was also curious about the border of the painting. Rather than not have a border or having a simple
