Online Assignment #5
          
           Impressionism was started in the 1860s, it was a modern movement in painting. According to the online lecture "HarmonIntroImpressionismPostImpressionism" the artist drew what they saw with their eyes rather than what their mind knows. The impressionist often viewed the world as a gift its beaut had an objective but not much about the emotional aspect. Some would capture the emotional bounds between kids and their mothers but it was more of the connection on how she saw them spending quality time with one another. Most of the artist would capture middle class individual enjoying the most entertaining points of their lives of others. Also Japanese patterns were very popular during this time period which is often reflected in the impressionist art works. As well as photograph, it was sort of copied in impressionism art for example the cut off as through it didnt have space to fit in the frame.

           Artist started to change the way the did impressionism, it was more and more influenced by the Japanese culture. Also the use of color started to become a way to express the energy in the painting. Another way impressionist did their art works were by using the color to fill in the space that wasn't being used but by choosing a right color to do so, as I mentioned it helps to express the energy of the painting. Often times their works include shapes and a lot of the things around them like its really been influenced by the culture.
