being a glutinous water-soluble material such as egg yolk, which is added to painting medium. The paint has been applied in bold, thick and vigorous brushstrokes, in several layers, along with added texture. The green line in the centre of Madam Matisse’s face has been well placed as a shadow line, and also in order to prevent the face from sinking into the strong flat colours in the background. The face is also divided into a warm, and cool side, and the brushstrokes also add to the more expressive and
Madam Matisse: The Green Line Henry Matisse, one of the most influential members of the Fauve movement, was responsible for much of the attention brought to it and its respective members. One of his works, Madame Matisse: The Green Line, more or less serves as an excellent example of what he was trying to accomplish in art: the use of color to express and convey emotions. The composition of the work consists of a portrait of Madame Matisse in the foreground and a background divided into
Gawain and the Green Knight (Lines 928-994) Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a tale that was written in the fourteenth century. It is an intriguing tale including romance, magic, action, and betrayal. The story opens with a Christmas celebration in which King Arthur refuses to eat until he hears a knightly tale or receives a challenge. The Green Knight enters the scene, and King Arthur receives his challenge. The challenge is a strike for a strike, and the prize is the Green Knight's axe

The beeps become increasingly so close that its almost one perpetual sound and then without notice it becomes one. The monitor’s green line that at one point in time was bouncing is now a steady flat line…Another life lost to cancer, what a shame. Medical research is essential to our way of life everyday people just as the one that I described to you moments ago will lose their lives not just cause of cancer but because
Statistical Investigation For my Maths GCSE's I am required to do two pieces of coursework one of which is a piece on statistics. The purpose of this project is to help me investigate a real life situation using statistics. In this case I have been given some quantitative data on the end of year maths test scores of children in year 8. What I am supposed to do is compare the data by making hypotheses to indicate if there is something comparable between the results. First I have decided
morning. However, when we do recall what we had dreamt, we seem to always be able to describe exactly what happened in great detail. In the poem “You Were You” by Sandra Beasley, the narrator is doing exactly that. As the reader goes through the poem line by line, a more detailed and complete picture of the narrator’s dream is created. We are told that the whole dream is taking place at a bar. This bar is a favorite of an important man in the narrator’s life. The man’s attire is acknowledged in addition
Jennifer) is oppressed. However when a closer look is given, there is much more to this piece. When the poem is read line by line, much more meaning can be gleaned from it. “Aunt Jennifer’s Tigers prance across a screen,” the screen would seem to be a tapestry of some kind on which Aunt Jennifer stitched tigers. “Bright topaz denizens,” the tiger Aunt Jennifer stitched are a bright green-blue, possibly symbolizing royalty, truth and growth all at the same time. Topaz is also a semiprecious stone which
metamorphosis of the words "green" and "gold" through his poem, ranging in connotation from freshness to decay, helps to convey Thomas’s perceived loss of innocence and insouciance. Thomas initially personifies Time as "Golden" in line 5; time views Thomas as "prince of the apple towns," (line 6) worthy of the riches nature has to offer. Thomas again refers to "green and golden" in line 10: "green and carefree…" to describe himself as young and blessed. The ironic statement: "green and golden I was huntsman…calves
lure the reader into the right frame of mind to read into the attitude of each poem. Innocence consists of six, four-line stanzas, where as experience is only three, four-line stanzas. The length of each line is also longer in innocence when compared to experience. When you examine what each of the poems is portraying, this seems like an effective way to draw a distinctive line between the two. Innocence begins in a slightly depressing tone, informing us from a child's first person perspective
elaborates on this concept as he states another visual sentence, "He is all pine and I am apple orchard." This line depicts the differences between him and his neighbor. Robert Frost joins all his lines together in this narrative poem while still focusing on different ideas. He uses this style of poetry to develop the theme. Everything flows together yet stands apart line by line. Narratives are pleasingly unrestrained and their strive to tell stories are easeful. In "Mending Wall", Frost
on Icarus. The secondary color that Chagall uses is green. The color green is used for the animals and grass. The green on the animals and grass is a tint because the color is lighter than the rest of the colors. But, one particular donkey in the street, the color green is a shade because the
It resembles a French boudoir scene by its subtle use of line on the subject and her surroundings. The line is clearer on the woman’s nude body as there are definite outlines along her upper body, back, and lower body. Line is also visible because of the draping on the bed cover, which suggests movement. The curved line and harsher shadows on the left side of the cover are seen as making a shape that resembles the women’s derrière. The line that splits the painting in two quadrants begins at the edge
Other colors used in this painting include green, black and white. Several shades of green are used on the grass and bushes. The use of green adds contrast to the painting specially with the pink tones. A single shade of white is also used in this painting. It plays a role on the shadow parts of the flamingo adding dimension and depth, showing which flamingos are closer or farther within the picture plane. The use of green, black and white in the painting help the red, and different
personal pronouns, like "you" and "I" repeatedly as if to remind the reader war is a real thing and that they could easily be in the same situation. Line twenty-one reads, "If you could hear, at every jolt" followed by line twenty-five, "My friend, you would not tell with such high zest". The use of the word "you" and even "my friend" makes both of these lines very personal, as if Owen is speaking directly to the reader. "Nothing Gold Can Stay" also has a personal sense to it, but the author of this poem
pink pillow, dreaming about being bought, laid next to a navy green pillow, who had been returned multiple times and longed to stay in the store forever. The navy green pillow wanted to protect her companion from the shoppers, as that is how she lost her entire family, to them; they all got chosen one by one leaving only the navy green pillow. As a shopper walked by, scrutinizing the pillows, the pink pillow begged the green pillow to let her go and leave this store. "Do you not want to
My First Time to Disney World “If you have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all” -Bambi. But this is also something my mom said as we were getting on the plane about to fly to Disney World. We were so excited since this was the first time my sisters had been on a plane and I barely remember my first plane ride. We waited silently for them to call our numbers to go and board the plane. I could hear the footsteps on the cold metal of the floor as we walked to the plane. I could feel the excitement
in Hot Rhythm are those of carefree people enjoying life. However, Motley’s grandmother’s expression is very serious depicting the struggle of a former slave (Brown, 2014). The lines on the face of Motley’s grandmother define depth. The features and volume of her face are defined with deep lines above the brow. The lines around the nose and below the mouth show signs of age using shading to help create the shape of the face. The faces in Hot Rhythm are less defined using circular shapes for fullness
such as line, colour and texture. A formal analysis of these works of art gives an understanding of the role each of these elements plays in delivering Giotto’s intended theme. A formal analysis of an art entails an examination of its element and the principle of design. The elements are the building block that an artist uses to create a piece of art. These include aspects such as line, space, shape and form, texture and colour. Giotto uses several elements such as colour, texture and line to convey
shade of a tree with what looks like cross stitching in her lap, or some sort of sewing. The children seem to be protected with a canopy of branched and the sun is setting in the back ground behind the large rolling green hills. The title of the poem itself is entwined with branches, green with being young. This sapling like title shows how young and inexperienced the children really are. The freshness of spring and young is throughout this entire etching. The actual poem is very easy to read nothing
1. The oil painting of Mont Sainte- Victoire by Paul Cézanne on page 480 represents an analogous harmony. Paul Cézanne uses various colors of yellow, green, and blue, which are three colors that are adjacent from each other on the color wheel. The yellow is next to the green which is next to the blue. The oil painting first appears to be a picture of a beautiful mountain with grass and fields. After examining the photo, one is able to see the tiny farm houses at the lower part of the oil painting
