Analyze the painting "Girls in the Sun" by V.E. Makovsky on the following questions: Color / hue
• Can you view the true color of the artwork (i.e. are you viewing a low-quality
reproduction or examining the artwork in poor lighting)?
• Which color schemes have been used within the artwork (i.e. harmonious;
complementary; primary; monochrome; earthy; warm; cool/cold)? Has the artist
used a broad or limited color palette (i.e. variety or unity)? Which colors
dominate?
• How would you describe the intensity of the colors (vibrant; bright; vivid;
glowing; pure; saturated; strong; dull; muted; pale; subdued; bleached; diluted)?
• Are colors transparent or opaque? Can you see reflected color?
• Has color contrast been used within the artwork (i.e. extreme contrasts;
juxtaposition of complementary colors; garish / clashing / jarring)? Are there any
abrupt color changes or unexpected uses of color?
• What is the effect of these color choices (i.e. expressing symbolic or thematic
ideas; descriptive or realistic depiction of local color; emphasizing focal areas;
creating the illusion of aerial perspective; relationships with colors in surrounding
environment; creating balance; creating rhythm/pattern/repetition; unity and
variety within the artwork; lack of color places emphasis upon shape, detail and
form)? What kind of atmosphere do these colors create?
Would it be appropriate to use color in a similar way within your own artwork?
