The painting is in form of asymmetrical balance, although both the left and right contain similar elements, which are a humanoid figure and a tree, the visual weight is heavier on the right due to the usage of a more saturated colour, which creates a more intense contrast between the red of the humanoid figure and the green of the tree nearby. Moreover, the size of the forms mentioned above is also larger than those of the left, and thus also contribute to the heavier visual weight. In terms of…

it as spirits rising from the depths of mankind." I was taken a back by his comment. The painting was called 'sunrise at ferrycarrig'. It was a landscape painting. I could see where he was coming from, though. There were dark blues and reds reaching up from the water. Alister led me to another painting. The texture looked rough and exposed. It was a mix of all different colors but mostly white. The painting was called 'wandering' by Kingelee John. "This makes me feel lost." I said. "It makes me…

The image I chose, titled Anxiety, was created by Benjamin Koelewijn. The picture shows a nude woman with a burning scalp covering her body in different ways.

Her right hand clenches her left shoulder, and a blanket is draped between her arms. Her arms are covering her chest, she’s covered in oil, the right…
