inspiration for my colored composition


This is a painting done by Joseph Stella titled Spring, medium: watercolor. I saw this at the Bowdoin Museum of Art and was very intrigued by the overall composition. As I stood there and observed the painting, first thing I noticed was the depth of the painting. When I listen to the song I chose, the listener can experience multiple feelings towards the song, such as happiness, passion, energy, creativity, wealth, mystery and cleanliness. Although I feel that Joseph Stella's Spring doesnt have this many feelings/moods that could be associated with it, I feel that the stain glass effect with small, geometric shapes in a specific color set is very effective for my composition.
