Art critique on the painting “The Starry Night”


                                       "THE STARRY NIGHT"
                                         by Vincent Van Gogh


This painting to me is not really realistic because the sky looks like it has waves in it and in the night you don’t see that. Also the spire in the painting has wavy walls and that is impossible to make. And last the only part of the painting to me that is realistic is the town in the bottom of the painting.

In my opinion the feeling of this painting is that it is somewhat sad to me because it only uses darker shades of each color. Also I think the feeling that Vincent Van Gough was trying to express to me is that the night sky would look brighter if the stars were bigger and brighter.

I think the quality of the design is great because the way he blends the different shades of each color is amazing each stroke is a different color or shade so to me it is a very amazing painting by him. The design elements of the painting is astounding because he places each color in the best ever place with every stroke.

The design elements of this painting that are amazingly painted to me is the moon in the corner I personally like how he painted the moons halo and how he drawed all of the other stars halo’s is really amazing because the way he drew them was really nice so that is my favorite design element of the drawing. Another design element of the painting that I am really amazed about are the waves in the sky even though you don’t normally see that in the sky he very nicely drew them.
