The bottom half of the painting is of a stream. The bottom center you can see where the water trickles over the rocky ledge into a pool beneath. Drinking from the pool is a single doe. Either side of the bottom section of the painting is dry land beneath a rocky ledge. Above the ledge in the upper half of the painting, trees can be seen outlining the path of the unseen stream. Some of the trees are turning colors while some are still green. Above the tree line there is a cloudy and hazy sky. The warm colors and the presence of the deer imply that the painting may be set in the morning.  ]]> 2017-09-20 00:59:36 UTC https://padlet.com/romneybr/canda_art1/wish/189136918 romneybr https://padlet.com/romneybr/canda_art1/wish/189137866 The painting shows a serene woodland scene. The focus of the painting is a sun lit area, the eyes then move to the trees on the left and move down to the deer drinking in the pool. The warm coloring adds to the peaceful tone. ]]> 2017-09-20 01:05:06 UTC https://padlet.com/romneybr/canda_art1/wish/189137866 romneybr https://padlet.com/romneybr/canda_art1/wish/189137931 I think that this piece is used to demonstrate the natural beauty of the world. The world is becoming so concrete and that begun during the industrial revolution which was right before the time of this painting.

You cannot look at this painting and not appreciate the delicate disposition of the natural world.]]> 2017-09-20 01:05:50 UTC https://padlet.com/romneybr/canda_art1/wish/189137999
