Name: Flowing Stream
Artist: Dan Austine
Style: Impressionism
Media: Oil on canvas
1. The subject of this painting is a stream in the spring.

2. The setting of the painting is a stream flowing through the middle of the woods. You can't say much about the time period because some things look the same as they did 100 years ago.
3. The painting is fairly detailed, but seeing as the painting is at a far away angle, you really can't get that detailed.

4. The setting is the subject of the painting so it is the dominant role.

5. The colors of this painting are light. They show a sense of peacefulness. The lightest color is in the middle and it looks like its going around the bend of the stream, so it is kind of making you want to know what lies around the bend. There are really no shapes that stand out, they all blend in together so they look like something real.
