A Sense of Place

Carl Holsoe


Edward Hopper


Carl Holsoe's painting had a sad mood to it. None of the colors stand out, they are all very simple. The woman in the painting is another reason it looks sad because the way her body is formed and she is looking out the window, it just gives off a sad vibe for me. 
Edward Hopper's painting gives a fantasy vibe. There is a room and out the door is the ocean. The colors are bright and welcoming. This is defiantly a more happy painting. It draws the viewer in.

I think you did a good job comparing both paintings. I like that you used your imagination to create a story for each of the paintings.
