    In Emily Carr’s oil on canvas painting, Big Raven, the painter designs a breathtaking image of a raven sitting on a hill. Although it is wrong to compare this piece to an Italian or Northern Renaissance painting as they have completely different styles, the lighting and composition used in Big Raven resemble the artwork of that period in respect to having a sense of three-dimensionality and realism. To accomplish such rendering, the use of a consistent light source in the scene is crucial to…

    I think the scream is a great painting overall. I wanted to do Van Gogh’s Starry Night, but realized that wasn’t an option after reading the paper requirements since we looked at it in class. I was going to go for another Van Gogh painting, but when I looked up his name I found The Scream and went for that one. One thing that really brings the piece together is the lines. They definitely lead your eye all around the paper. You start focusing in on the face and then the blue lines of the river…
