How are emotions depicted in 

art?

Introduction: 

My project is an art show that focuses on the patterns, colors, and themes in art that add certain emotions to a piece. I began this project by researching the commonalities that show up in emotional artwork, but then I decided to make my own pieces based on what I learned online. After creating a piece for sadness, happiness, and anger, I decided to add a seperate part of the show that will be abstract interpretations of  each emotion. This is to prove that different style of art can convey the same feeling. My goal for this project was to better understand the artistic patterns that show up for different emotions, while also expanding my ability to convey a single message through visual art.
