Art All Around!

Art! Art is something that surrounds us everywhere we go. It comes in many unique ways. When going to the Museum of Fine Arts, located in Hounton, I was very entertained with all the spectacular paintings and statues they had for the people. I learned that art comes in several ways from paintings,statues,crowns,and more! While seeing the painting called "The Elder Sister" is was quite touching because now a days you hardly see any sisters being caring for their siblings. The painting "Woman in a Purple Coat" was very eye catching to me because of the color contrast the artist uses. Another painting i found was called "Orpheus Leading Eurydice from the Underworld" by Camille Corot is an intresting painting because of the dark color that are being used. Last but not least, my favorite painting, "The Yellow Scale" by the famouse artist "Frantisek Kupka". This painting caught my attention as soon as I looked over! Its amazing how Frantisek uses many different shades of yellow to make a whole image. By using the color yellow this painting gets the attention of anyone in the room!
