1. The paintings differ in several ways, such
as shading, texture and depth. For
example, Still Life with Bottle of Olives
shows shading and creates depth so that the wooden table look 3 Dimensional. Also, compared to Still life with Grapes and Clarinet, Still Life with Bottle of Olives has a much more subtle background,
just dark brown and black, whereas Still
life with Grapes and Clarinet has polka dots and different shades of blue. In texture, the gourd in Still life with Bottle of Olives has crevices and groves on it that
complete the look of real food on a table.
2. I think painters of 1B, 2B, 3B, and 4B
chose to paint the portraits as they did, because they were showing their own
unique look at the world. I think the point that they were trying to make was
that we are in our own time now, and we should not have to paint the world in
the same way as the people before us saw it. We should be able to paint it the way we see
it now.
3. Painting 1A makes me feel like I am going
to sit down at my grandmother’s for Thanksgiving dinner. 1B feels almost like
the days when I was in first grade because I would often draw like that. 2A makes
me feel like there is a family problem since there is at look of pity on the
woman’s face. Painting 2B makes me feel like I am in an old Pink Panther
cartoon and that the man is one of the characters. It feels almost homey. 3A has almost a pitiful feeling to it because
the poor looking girl can’t give the man what he is asking for. 3B feels classy
because I can almost hear the Jazz music in my head. 4A has a childish feeling to it because of the
light blue dress on the girl’s face. I prefer the previous centuries’ paintings;
because I find that is had more life and more realistic facial expressions.
