Modernist Artwork

This modernist artwork called “Once Upon a Time”(2007) by Bob Kelly. This oil painting constructed from three main parts in which is land, sea, and sky. For the land, Mr. Kelly used many wavy lines as enter into the sea, and I could see many oblique lines as draw into the sea. However, the horizontal line between the comparison wavy lines and the oblique lines from the sea. Mr. Kelly used very few colors in the painting, blue, dark green, and primary gold. The size of the beach helps me gauge the depth of the interior space the painting depicts. From the sky, the natural cloud made an old man who laughs as the happy image. Besides, the rough grasses on the land that it run by wind. However, I could feel much amazing because I could see the season signal that fall is coming, the dark green grasses changes to the primary gold, and the blue sky appeared a happy man. I think that it is all about the artist why gave the “Once Upon a Time”. Of course, this is a successful artwork because it cost me pay my attention to it.
