This art work was done by Nathlie Bertin

It seems like the medium of this art work is a mix between acrylic and water-color. The objects in this artwork are peoples faces, dogs, horses and wolves and, as it seems, one fish. I don't see many straight lines, most of the lines are wavy or curvy. There are a variety of shapes such as thick and thin and curvy with mostly soft edges. I see soft, smooth and dull textures. The art work mainly consists of warm colors but in the back it seems like some cold colors are peeking through.

The first thing when i look at this artwork i see the lady on the very left, then my eye goes down to the horse on her body and all the way to the bottom of the page back to the middle top. This artwork is asymmetrical is it no symmetrical what so ever. The light however seems to be coming from the front. the darkest part of the art work is the big fish on the left of the piece and around the faces and dogs like kind of an outline.  There is repetition of dogs and faces but they all are different. 

I'm not sure whats happening in the artwork but that's one of the things i like about it. the artist shows nature through the different animal in the picture. Some words that describe this art work would be beauty, strength,mystery,hope,exhaustion,war and peace. 

i think the two theories imitation-ism (imitating nature) and emotionalism. I like this art work because you really have to look to find the diffrent images in the piece. Also the more you look the more you notice and see. i love how each line represents something and it all fits together.

  1. Excellent description! Now just fix all of the lowercase 'i'. Use 'I' to show that you as an author are important!
