"The Red Deer" by Franz Marc

I chose this Marc painting for a number of reasons. I like the warm colors he chose to use for the two deer and how he contrasts that with the cooler colors that the hills and sky in the background are composed of. I also really liked how he made the shape of the hills and both deer very smooth-like, while the sky looks puffy and sort of dissolves into the top of the hills. All together I really liked this painting.
