Composition

The composition of this painting is very busy with the jumbled houses in the background and the animals in the foreground.

The main view point is a mix of the distant houses and the larger more dominant animals in the fore ground. This is done so that you are drawn to the whole painting and get to see the whole story of the painting.

The way that the houses are placed in the background suggests that the town is very busy and overcrowded due to the mix of large and small houses.

Colour

The colour used in this painting is very mixed and involves warm colours like red in the pig and oranges in the houses. The colour used is very dull and lacks vibrancy which is seen in the dark blues background and in the dark green on the animal.

The atmosphere of this painting is very sad and creepy almost as if there has been something had to have happened in the town seen in the characters in the background.

Opinion on style

I like this painting a lot as it is very stylised and unrealistic which is seen in the houses and in the colour used.

I also like it because it is rough around the edges this is seen in the paint as it is very dry and full of texture seen in the cow.
