1992 ~ Edvard Munch The Scream Art

College Art
Munch takes the viewer into depths of emotion. The viewer can see the pain and anguish through the horror in his face, the shape of the head, and the placement of the hands-on the face.

Munch used closed-form and gives the viewer the feeling that the figure doesn't want any connections with the outside world.
In the content of the isolated central figure that viewers may see themselves alone, in-depth, the emotional grief, the loneliness, the fear, love, sensual passion, jealousy or death.

Despair, carried by continuous linear rhythms reverberates thought the picture.

Edvard Munch & The Girl on the Beach 

His use of the different lines gives stability yet gives the viewer a sense of trust. The diagonal lines give movement and action.
The sky and clouds are horizontal and curved which seems stable yet gives the feeling of instability.
The small lake seems restful, yet the repletion of continuous lines seems to give the feeling of the world closing in on the subject. He also uses implied lines that suggest movement by its form and by relation to the other lines.

Implied motion is linked with the action of lines and the repletion of shape or other rhythmic elements.
The shape of the mouth implies the scream, the placement of the hands implies the pain and grief the figure is feeling.


Objects appear to grow small as they recede into the distance by use of the parallel fence.
They appear to converge toward a common point, which is the vantage point. The two figures seem smaller and the boat in the lake gives depth to the picture. The print in black seems to symbolize pain, grief, death, etc.

Why I like this picture of art!
Munch use of lines to give a feeling of pain, despair, and it connects with every individual on this planet.
At some point in time was can we can all connect with this piece of art.
It portrays depth in emotion also loneliness in a very big world.
This has always been my favorite piece of art, it shows life as it really is. At some point in time, we all feel this pain!
The girl on the beach was another of Munch art pieces that show darkness, loneliness, and despair.

1992 ~Camargue lines, bold colors, movement! Art

I did this piece in College at Faulkner University in Huntsville, Alabama
I chose this piece of art because of the lines, movement, and bold colors used!

This piece of art is a powerful use of illusions of energy and grace.
The unique style of lines is a precise and elegant topography of motion.
This piece expresses life and motion.
The subject is not the major part of the piece, but the artist is trying to bring life to the piece by using the vertical placement of lines in the horse's hair.

The artist uses contour hatching in the horse's body and cross-hatching in the spaces around the horse.
The artist used bold colors which gives movement to the horse.
He uses blue/green on his body, he uses pink/black in his mane, he uses purple/pink on his legs.

The body of the horse is large in contrast to his surroundings which show motion.

Why do I like this piece?
The use of bold colors, and the way the artist brings life to each line he draws.
The horse represents life, the struggle for survival. This picture would bring life and color to a very dull room.
Even a child would enjoy this colorful piece.

The Camargue horse is an ancient breed of horse indigenous to the Camargue area in southern France.
