This painted paints women relaxing on what seems to be a beautiful day. The artist is able to paint with such talent: from the sun kissed skin of the women to the greenery background, it still is able to impress and wow people. The style of the artist, Gauguin, brings out the calm and stability through the colors and shapes within the painting. In the painting of the four women enjoying leisure time, many bright, but are warm colors are also used: many shades of green and yellow in the…

In the school cafeteria all the high school and homeschool students were getting ready for a elegant dinner. Hair was getting done, makeup being applied, and dresses being tried on. No one was wasting any time. Girls were whispering, laughing, and some even crying. Anxiety grew with each moment that passed. Callie was sitting at a table, facing the closed cafeteria doors when she noticed a guy looking through the window. Tianna nudged her and raised her eyebrows. “He’s looking at you, you…

The first image I will be analyzing is a cover of The Handmaid’s Tale, Bloomsbury Edition. The combination of white and rouge creates a simple contrast between the background and the content.

The first thing in the morning is to prepare an outfit for the day. Generally when I am getting dressed I think about the weather, what classes I have to attend, and how I am feeling in general. If I am a bit down and just want to be left alone, I will wear black so I don’t stick out, but I still look like I tried to get dressed and look presentable.

or dull colors in order to contrast them. “Taxi!” was all about contrast. The brightness of the taxi contrasts the dullness of the garage and surroundings in order to exemplify how yellow easily stands out in surroundings even when compared to the white of the garage pole. In “So Special”, the specials are directly given brighter colors that make them stand out and contrast the blue of the low price signs.
