In Giotto's "Lamentation", color is used to create emotion by using soft colors. Color used are a light blue, pale pink, soft green, creme color, light orange, etc. I believe these colors create a calm emotion such as sadness or worriness. The shade of blue that was used takes over almost of half of the picture, I believe this shade of blue is gloomy.

The figures look like something is going on in their mind, maybe they are unhappy with each other or something is really…

Finally, when comparing the Unknown substance and the other substances that had been listed, I had found that Sodium bicarbonate had proudly fitted the results like those of the…

Paul Gauguin is an artist whose usage of colors allows the viewers to experience dramatic changes. Unrealistic and implausible as colors may seem, he simply painted the colors reflected in his eyes, something that had been his philosophy of life. Gauguin was a leading French Post-Impressionist, who was not well appreciated until after his death. He was a pioneer in the Symbolist art movement of the early 1900s in France. Fauvism and Expressionism are advanced stages that were set from Gauguin’s…

example is the use of implied depth. All of these elements incorporated together to give the audience a feeling of unity and balance. The color scheme in the mosaic has a cool vibe. There is an abundance of monochromatic blues, browns, tans, and greens. The use of the cool colors gives the image a calming effect, but having only cool colors can cause the image to lack variety. The artist brings variety by using complementary colors, which causes contrast. There are…

While Fitzgerald uses green to symbolise the character Gatsby and his inner feelings, Hawthorne uses the red and yellow garments that Pearl, Hester Prynne’s daughter must wear, effectively demonstrating that Prynne and Pearl are symbolic of her same sin.
