Emotions Painting by Melanie Alcantara Correia - Fine Art America







 This art by Melanie Alcantara was uploaded to the Pixels.com website on January 6, 2013. Her reason behind this painting is that it depicts a range of emotion that a person feels at any given moment. The location where Melanie Alcantara painted this is unknown.



    When it comes to art that I think shows the true human is the painting Emotions by Melanie Alcantara. The art shows how we can go from happy to sad in a moments notice. We are happy when everything is going good. The second emotion that we tend to do is irritation. The third emotion that this art depict is sadness. I feel this one is the one that we hate to feel. I have felt this way in the past two weeks because i had to put one of my pets to sleep. The fourth and final one is Angry. We tend to sometimes get angry at the most stupid reasons. We get angry when a friend doesn't call us back after we call them. We are human beings that have a great range of emotion daily. We could be happy in the morning then in the afternoon we could be sad or angry based on how our day went. I feel that holding emotions in will lead us to not be happy with ourselves and really angry at others.

    This piece of art shows some of the emotions that we go through on a daily basis. I feel that this is only a glimpse of all the emotions we feel as humans. I like how the artist used different colors for each facial expression. The color represents the emotions well. Pink a happy color, green with envy, blue makes you feel sadness, and red with anger.

    This is a powerful piece. The use of color to express the mood compliments the facial expressions. The interlinked sets of eyes are a great pattern and a reminder that all emotions are intertwined within the same being. I personally love this piece but I do not think I would have a print in my home, it does bring me a little sadness. I'm so sorry to hear about your pet.

 The Romantic Era is a time from the late 1700’s to the late 1800’s. The two styles from the Romantic Era is Realism and Pro-Raphaelitism. Realism rejects imaginative idealization in favor of a close observation of outward appearances. Pro-Raphaelitism was closely associated with the social, political, and economic changes of Victorian England.  Realism   Gustave Courbet, The Desperate Man, 1843–45. This was painted Paris This picture of Gustave Courbet painting the “The Desperate Man’ was painted by him because it is showing as a tortured genius struggling for recognition and a bite to eat. The desperate man should be taken as a literal expression of his lived experience. In 1843 Courbet was an artist without a manifesto, still trying to build a reputation. The Desperate Man seems intensely personal and, thus, deeply genuine. In many of his paintings, Courbet was committed to capturing the truth of modern life, or the unwashed masses.

During the 1700's there was some famous portraits of American war hero's. This time started the Classical Era. During the 1700's America was going through new transition. This showed the British that America militia was here to stay.  The Constitution was written 1787 and ratified in 1788. In the three paintings below I am going to show some of my favorite artists during this time that showed us truly what happened in history. This is the Painting Called "Mrs. Daniel Denison Rogers" in Boston MA in 1784. This painting shows us the use of pastel colors in the sky and in her shimmering of her dress. John Singleton Copley was a famous American born artist that was known for his portraits. He incorporated the Rococo style. Rococo style is an exuberant decoration, with an abundance of curves, counter-curves.  The details in the lace of her hat, her facial features and the use of flesh tones are all traits that Copley was known for and they are truly incredible. This is
