When thinking about this project the first few themes that came to mind were color and nature. They seemed too simple and probably something another student would choose as well so I decided to think of something different. I wanted to have a theme of just a single word that would fit a lot of my favorite darker, nature-like paintings. I was drawn to these paintings because it's a very gloomy day right now. When looking at a few of the pieces I picked out I ended up deciding on the word melancholy, which means sad, lonely or gloomy. I thought this was fitting because a lot of the paintings I chose all had dark blues, grays and greens which to me are rather sad/calm colors. I knew if I chose this theme I would be able to find a lot of interesting pieces with the same lonely atmosphere.
