Yellow, Red and Blue - Wassily Kandinsky

Description:

This print is created using high-quality paper and printing to produce a vivid and detailed preproduction.  I think this piece uses several elements and principles.  This piece uses music to create a very vibrant print with several movements.

Shapes - circles, triangles, rectangles

Lines of different widths and style - straight, squiggly, curved

Color - warm and cool colors

Shading

Analysis:

Movement - there is a lot of movement going on in this picture with the different lines and changed in colors

Balance - two main center pieces

Texture - the different shades and widths of line add texture

Emphasis - there is emphasis placed on the circles and some of the shapes that are shadowed by dark colors.

Interpretations:

I think this artist was full of life and had a deep passion for music.  He uses music shapes and elements to personalize his work. He used only three colors for this work I believe - yellow, red , and blue to create a wonderful piece that really is unique.

Judgment:

I would definitely own this piece in my house.  I think the colors are really upbeat and the picture gives me energy.  I like the different shapes and shades used in this work.
