                                                                                                                                                                                Critique


The critique that was chosen is a combination of dreams and imagination. Dreams are something that is being foreshadowing at least some people think. But in reality they are only a figment of our imagination. In the painting “The True Nature” the painter “Michael Woodstock” uses abstract expressionism and hue to show the viewer a piece of true nature.

                The hue in the painting “The True Nature” is a very key element to that painting. It makes the picture unique. The forestation creeps up to a wonderful tree that shows a land of light. As the sun reflects the tree making it gold gives the painting true beauty. When the luscious green forest approaches the tree it all turns to gold as if it was the true color of Mother Nature. That is why hue is such an important element in the painting “The True Nature”.

                Michael Woodstock shows the true definition of abstract expressionism in his painting “The True Nature”. He gives the viewer a feeling like it is too good to be true. As if it was a dream or it was all in your imagination. That’s why he uses the unreal affects of the gold from the sun covering the tree to be so florescent. It is as if you just thought of that image in your head like you can touch it but it’s not real. He  shows  imagination but then he makes  it a realism and it feels so real. That’s how Michael Woodstock uses abstract expressionism to give a sense of imagination.

                The painting “The True Nature” is beyond your imagination. It attracts the eye with its remarkable beauty. When this painting is seen by the human eye is leaves a feeling of heaven. It show a little piece of what we know of heaven; how beautiful it is and how peaceful the sky is and how true Mother nature is present at the very moment. That’s why in the painting “The True Nature” Michael Woodstock use hue and abstract expressionism to give us a taste of our imagination and dreams in a reality.

                The Critique I have chosen is a combination of dreams and imagination. Dreams and imagination are a sight of our future based off of some people. Dreams are only figments of our imagination based on our past and thoughts. In the painting “The Beautiful Light” the painter “John Scheffler” uses shade and abstract expressionism to attract the eye by  feeling of triumph.

                The shade in the painting “The Beautiful Light” is very important to the picture. The shade emphasizes the picture as a whole. The dock creeps into murky water as the dark mountains in the horizon show antoher land of darkness. As the sky is too grey and dark. He sends a mood throughtout the painting using almost the same color. The trees are dark and grey also to put an emphasis on the shade. That’s how shade was used in the Painting “The Beautiful Light”.

                John Scheffler uses abstract expressionism like no other in the painting “The Beautiful Light”. He uses the shade to emphasize this apsect of the painting. The painting is all gloomy and dark wwith the murky water to follow. Then the creepy mountains in the horizon show a dark side. But then there is a spot of light, just a glimpse of the sun. It shows a sign of hope. That’s what he was trying to emphasize. That was his feeling going towards this painting. He felt that the world was getting dark and filled with hatred but then theres a light at the end of the tunnel; theres hope out there for all of us to become better than what we are. That was his feeling going into painting this painting.

                The painting “The Beautiful Light” is inspiring. It shows that it’s never to late and theres always hope out there. He showed us and without even looking at the picture we could just see it with in us. When you see the picture you can tell already what the point behind it was. That’s why in the painting “The Beautiful Light” John Scheffler uses shade and abstract expressionism to attract they eye with a sight of triumph.
