Colors: In this piece there are a lot of dark greens, browns, and shades of gray. There is also some blue in the sky, although it is muted. I would say this is an analogous color scheme since green and blue are right next to each other on the color wheel. Additionally, the shades of brown used in this painting seem to have yellow and green undertones which would fit into an analogous color scheme.
Textures: The textures in my piece are visual. I see lots of bumpy, hard, and rough textures because of all the stone. The tree bark, leaves, and grass in this painting also look like they have scratchy textures. The smoothest textures in this painting are found in the sky and some areas of the waterfall/river. Subject: This piece of art is showing a landscape. The main subjects include the leaning tree in the center of the piece, the waterfall in the background, and the two deer in the bottom left corner. I would say that the subjects in this piece are all emphasized through the lighting. The leaning tree is once of the few trees in the sunlight, and seems to glow since its leaves are catching the light. In this painting the light actually reflects off of the fur of the deer, which helps draw attention to them. Meaning: I believe the piece is trying to show that nature can be rugged and powerful while still being beautiful. This piece shows a beautiful landscape and has lots of detail and life in it. There are lots of delicate plants in the grass, and some sapling trees are seen on the right side of the painting. However, there are also bare trees with rugged branches, and rough, broken rocks. The waterfall, while beautiful to look at, is painted with movement, and captures the thunderous power of the water. As a viewer I clearly see the raw, rugged parts of nature, along with its power. I also clearly see the delicacy of nature as well.
