I chose this artwork because it is very colorful and bright. It reminds me of Lake Superior. We go every summer, there are sailboats all over the lake. It's so peaceful there. That's why I like this artwork, it brings back so many memories. I have never seen this artwork before, but I feel like I have seen the technique somewhere. I don't recognize the artist though. I think the artwork is about a long time ago, when there were princes and princesses. This is because there aren't motor boats, there are just canoes and sail boats. There are also castles in the back. I think the artist created this artwork because they wanted to make a magical bright painting of the lake and the pretty sailboat sails. The artwork is very successful because it's so pretty and nice to look at. The artwork is made out of little dabs of bright colors. When you step back and look at it, it’s a picture! This is craftsmanship because the artist is using a certain technique. Here is another reason this artwork is successful. He designed it so cool because there are so many colors. You can look really close and just focus on one dot of color. This enhances the art work because it gives it more texture.

Nice choice, Arika. Paul Signac is a pretty famous artist. He and another guy started the Pointillism movement - painting with those dabs of color, like you said. Good analysis.
