The style of the panting allows the blues and the oranges to mix well with each other given that they're complementary colors.]]> 2017-02-15 19:25:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154136725 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154136829 In this Monet, red is a complementary color for green, so the red roses pop against the green bush. The cool colors of the sky and grass give the painting a calm feeling. Most of the roses have warm colors that contrast against the cool colors of the bush, grass, and sky. The color theory in this piece draws your eyes directly to the rose bush.]]> 2017-02-15 19:26:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154136829 jfer5314 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137163 This painting is "The Boulevard Monmartre at Night" by Camille Pissarro. I like this painting because of how the warm yellow/oranges pop from the buildings and lights. The end of the street on the horizon is a darker navy that pushes the sky back. You can see where the streetlights do and do not cast light by the black or gray of the road. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:26:55 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137163 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137277 This is a piece by Monet, I liked the sky and the water with buildings reflecting into the water. I love the colors. The warm and cool colors contrast, making the buildings pop out a little bit more.]]> 2017-02-15 19:27:10 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137277 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137282 2017-02-15 19:27:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137282 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137343 This painting by Pissarro uses warm colors like red, yellows and oranges to draw attention to the details in the buildings, It uses blues, purples, and greens in the flowers as a potential soothing aspect. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:27:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137343 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137602 The first thing I notice is the tree. The primary colors are yellow, secondary color is the grass with green color. I really love the little lake that separate both grass. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:28:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137602 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137639 This Monet painting display a variety of different hues of cool and warm colors. The warm colors are displayed with the reflection of the sunset on the pond and greenery. The cool colors can be shown with the trees, different parts of the pond, and the bridge. You can see the complementary colors among the green and red and the yellow and and violet.]]> 2017-02-15 19:28:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137639 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137706 This is a painting of a sunrise by Monet. The warm colors reflect on the water and our eyes are drawn to the darker rocks. The colors get cooler towards the right of the paintings. The warm tint of the painting gives a calming and warm sun rise impression. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:28:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154137706 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154138120 My eyes are drawn first to the flowers, that are a warm color. The red flowers pop while the windmill is receded into the painting because it's painted as a cool color. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154138120 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154138223 This painting by Jean Marc has a lot of bright colors and the ocean is receding into the background with its cool color. The pink and yellow flowers pop as warm colors. Also, the brush strokes can be seen and are more abstract than other pieces may be. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:29:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154138223 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154138593 This painting for the most part is filled with very neutral cool colors. The sky is pale and the water is clear. The foliage around the pond has varying shades of green, but it all stays in the background, tying the painting together rather than demanding the spectator's attention. The eyes are immediately drawn to the forefront of the picture by a set of dazzlingly pink flowers. This creates a stark contrast with the tranquil scene behind it. The other splashes of color on the horizon causes the gaze of the spectator to move outward in a radiating fashion]]> 2017-02-15 19:30:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154138593 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154139690 There is a lot of white which I am not what that represents exactly, maybe that they are more informal. The background behind the lunch party is filled with more greens and blues which is a cool color that is supposed to make you feel more calm possibly to highlight that it is a relaxing event. The women all seem to be wearing blue as well. The two distinct hats are colored yellow and then there are the black top hats which contrast with one another. The men with the yellow hats and have the white shirts seem to be more rural, whereas the women with the yellow hats seem to be fancier. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:33:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154139690 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154139995 This is a painting of a man, a field, and a haystack by painter Alfred Sisley. Sisley used vibrant pinks and touches of purple throughout the greens used to portray the field, which frankly stands out more than anything in this painting. Except maybe the giant haystack that is at least 20 feet tall.]]> 2017-02-15 19:33:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154139995 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154140078 This painting by Pissarro draws your eye to the orange tree in the front. The green, yellow, and orange is an analogous color scheme. There is a hint of purple in the shadows of the trees. The purple in the shadow is complementary to yellow in the path. The blues, purples, and greens are the cool colors in this painting.  The warm colors are represented by the yellow and orange in the leaves of the tree. The bright orange leaves tend to pop out while the green leaves recede to the back of the painting. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:34:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154140078 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154140441 I like the colors in this painting by Sisley. They are bright, light, and I like the contrast between the warm colors in the middle; the trees, the houses, put in contrast with the cool colors at the top and the bottom. The pale yellow path leads to the warmer colors in the middle of the painting that catch the attention. The association of cool and warm colors make me feel calm when watching at this little rural village landscape.]]> 2017-02-15 19:34:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154140441 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154140817 The use of color here is important to draw the eye around the painting and sets the town farther into the background. At first your eyes are drawn to the warm reds, oranges, and yellows in the foreground and then shift to the thick green of the tree to the right. From there your eye follows the tree up to the sky which takes up a lot of the sky and utilizes a lot of blue but also some yellow to the left to give more warmth. This shows the importance in impressionism of the sky and of color. Now that your eye has been drawn around the painting you are brought in to the middle to the small town sunk into the center of the painting. One of the important things Monet does here is his use of complimentary colors to distinguish the sides from the orange and blue against each other on the top and bottom or the green and red on the left and right.

The house is one of the last thing noticed, and it is well hidden among the bright colors of the other focal points. I think it's a really interesting piece that draws the eye to multiple places and gives a very relaxing feeling to those who observe it. ]]> 2017-02-15 19:36:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154141168 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154141265 The red flowers of this Monet painting stand out in the foreground, and the cool colors of the background lead the eye to the rest of the landscape, as well as they sky. Aside from the red flowers, most of the colors in this painting are cool and light.]]> 2017-02-15 19:36:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154141265 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154143046 This painting by Renoir was structured in a way so that the two sisters in the foreground stand out against the cool colors in the back. They are intentionally brighter and have more contrast than the trees. The brush strokes are more structured than many Impressionist paintings, but still have that feel of quick brush strokes. Renoir wanted the eye to be drawn to the two sisters and to give the viewer a sense of calm observation.]]> 2017-02-15 19:41:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154143046 https://padlet.com/mmesnead/4aq89cm9i3xl/wish/154432779 This painting contains both warm and cool colors. This oil painting is titled "Evening Sunlight Dancing."
