The image that caught my attention was The Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh.

This was
motivated by the tragic story that befell the author, which was documented below the painting.
The artist conspicuously integrated the color and texture aspects accurately, which I think
contributed to propelling it to be among the most famous portrait in the art world. The most
conspicuous color is blue is serves as a background and the other color that appears mostly in
yellow. Both colors, among other less conspicuous colors, act to complement each other and
present ideally the main idea preached by the artist revolving to represent a peaceful mood. In
addition, the artist also uses line and texture aspects to a great extent. Here, the oil paint lines
are drawn such that they overlap each other contributing largely to the texture of the art. A
variety of shapes can be observed in the picture that represents houses, vegetation, the sky,
among other figures, which gives the piece of art an elaborate background of the landscape and
its contents. Another aspect is the value, which is evident in the sky and also in the color blue,
which creates depth and tone of the painting. Lastly, the volume aspect is also present in the
significantly large space occupied by the painting.
