Most of which as curvy, and you get a calm, creative feeling to the picture.]]> 2017-03-22 18:23:03 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/161929374 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/161929616 There is color here, but not much. The colors are mostly unsaturated, but the only color that stands out is the tree and wheat field, which is in a green, rich color and the yellow, yet bland, pops out in the painting.]]> 2017-03-22 18:23:41 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/161929616 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/161935675 By: M.

This creates a type of mixed feeling, where the viewer is kind of understands the paradoxical situation that this picture is explaining.]]> 2017-03-24 18:06:10 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162494365 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162495338 This is shown throughout the entire painting, because it has a lot or a no value, but virtually no saturation,  because there is no color except black, gray, or white. The focus of this picture is really mixed, because when you try to follow what is happening, you jump everywhere.]]> 2017-03-24 18:09:32 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162495338 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162496830 Escher used a lot of shapes. For instance, if you see the patterns in the stairs, there is a few rhombuses you can spot, and some squares and rectangles in the railing or stairs. Many semi-circles were also used in the arches of the doorways and entrances.]]> 2017-03-24 18:15:12 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162496830 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162497989 By Justin Maller]]> 2017-03-24 18:19:42 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162497989 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162498165 This picture shows us that the "crystal" is using a radial symmetry, where the individual facets of the shape are cut in a way where the shape, though not round, had radial symmetry. This may also be asymmetrical balance, because it is shown that the bottom half of the crystal, if looked at closely, is not identical as the top half of the crystal. If you look closely, you may see a line that goes directly down the crystal. This is the line of reflection that the author used to create this shape easily, but still gives it that refined look.]]> 2017-03-24 18:20:28 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162498165 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162499103 We find here that in this picture, our view is directed toward the center, where the crystal lies because sparks of orange and white contrast with the black background of the picture, and this creates a pull towards the center.]]> 2017-03-24 18:24:17 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162499103 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162499640 There are many examples of shapes being used in this shape. The edge of the facets, the divisions between the orange in the center, basically scattered everywhere among the crystal.]]> 2017-03-24 18:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162499640 Pvt_Arfs https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162499979 This shape contains many triangles, a few quadrilaterals, but mainly triangles. Towards the top of the crystal, you can see a group of 4 triangles. This crystal gives a "jagged" feeling to the art.]]> 2017-03-24 18:27:43 UTC https://padlet.com/Pvt_Arfs/Art/wish/162499979
