Nighthawks- Art History #1

Due Tuesday 11/3- This weekend, I would like you to go on the internet and look up the painting "Nighthawks" by the American Painter Edward Hopper. In a well thought out paragraph describe the painting so that a person could picture in their mind what is going on in the painting. Next write a paragraph that describes the mood of the painting- What does the painting "feel like" and why? Finally, write a short paragraph about the painting in terms of the art principle "Balance." Think about what we talked about in class today- What kind of balance does Edward Hopper use in the painting?
