The piece of art I chose to write about is called Voice of the Winds by Rene Magritte.
This piece is realistic because he made a picture of landscape but added those three floating sphere's. He added alot of detail on the plants, horizon and the sky.
I feel that there is a Energetic mood to this painting because of the colors such as light Green's, light Blue's,and light Grey's. They are all lighter colors so it makes people feel relaxed because if they were darker colors they would make some people feel more tense.
There is a empty field with nothing on it except a few trees which makes people feel relaxed because it is like they are getting away from everything and just get to lie down with a breeze over them.
This piece looks like there might have been some texture on the plants if it were an oil painting, but it is a watercolor so there is no texture. The space on the picture looks evenly balanced, so there is not alot of room left with nothing in that area. The painting uses a variety of Green's, Blue's, and Grey's and some Brown's. He did a good job blending the colors and making everything flow very smoothly.
Here is a quote once said by Rene Magritte
My painting is visible images which conceal nothing... they evoke mystery and indeed when one sees one of my pictures, one asks oneself this simple question 'What does that mean'? It does not mean anything, because mystery means nothing either, it is unknowable.”
