After reviewing  HarmonIntroDesignPrinciples i was able to understand the different techniques artist use to harmonize and give a certain feel or view to their work. Such as asymmetrical balance, unifying the art work, using geometric shapes, and scale.  Artists are always on the look out to  communicate active and effectively, vibrant life in all of it’s diversity without visually assaulting the viewer. This is best shown in the following pieces.

Both Impressionism and Post-Impressionism refer to influential artistic movements arising in late 19th-century France. Post-Impressionism movement, focused on the  emotional, structural, symbolic, and spiritual elements  that they felt was lacking from Impressionism. A rtist evoked emotion rather than realism in their work. symbolic motifs, unnatural color, and painterly brushstrokes were all part of the post-impressionist style. Saturated hues, multicolored shadows, and rich ranges of color are evident in most Post-Impressionist painting. Rejecting interest in depicting the observed world, they instead looked to their memories and emotions in order to connect with the viewer on a deeper level. They relied upon the interrelations of color and shape to describe the world around them. The artists who would become known as the Impressionists looked at art a little differently, they wanted to make art as truly realistic as possible, with brighter colors and more ...
