The first document summarizes a painting titled "Stairway to Heaven vs. Stairwell to Hell" by George Grie from 2014. It used brown and other colors to create balance and distance between trees and a central angel-like figure. The painting depicted a tree-lined pathway and gates/stairs using colors and figures to represent the theme of heaven and hell. The second document summarizes a 1996 optical illusion artwork titled "Spiral tiling: geometry challenge #29" by Jean Pierre Hebert. It used repetitive lines and a natural color palette in a coiling spiral pattern. Although the lines repeated, unity was achieved through the coil structure and colors, creating the impression of an optical illusion.

“Stairway to Heaven vs.


Stairwell to Hell”

Painting of additional light


sources(Lighting) [shown in the
light from the trees and above],
Oil in Canvas, Applying Brush
Textures, Lines and Colors

(2014)

<Brief Explanation>

First, he dominantly used the


color brown applied here and
there to put a sense of balance as well as to match the theme he chose to use. Second,
he gave us a sense of distance by proportioning the sizes of the trees (making it
smaller) and the angel-like structure/statue/being in the middle (making it bigger and
have a sense of it popping out). All in all he made use of the theme (heaven and hell)
in a rather distinct way by showing us a tree-lined pathway (in the left of the picture)
depicting our lives now, the gates and stained stairs with the use of appropriate colors
and figures to achieve a sense of unity and harmony between these figures and
properly deliver the theme of heaven and hell.

Jean Pierre Hebert


“Spiral tiling: geometry challenge #29”
Optical Illusion, Use of Natural Color Palettes,
Lines and Colors
(1996)

<Brief Explanation>

It had a pattern of lines and colors in a repetitive


motion in which it coils around itself. And looking
at it if you were to cut it in the middle it would
leave you a symmetrical identity/ art. Although
the lines are quite repeated the artist tried to
make it look together and unified(unity) through
the usage of the coil-like structures as well as
mellow colors and distinctive lines leaving behind
an impression of optical illusion.
