In this piece of art I see a painting of monkeys in a jungle, hanging from trees and eating fruits. I like this piece of work because it has one of my favorite animals in it, the monkey.It is also very colorful.

In this painting I see several monkeys in a forest(or jungle). Two are sitting beneath orange trees, and some are climbing the tress. The two that seem to be looking at you look sort of curious. This artist uses bright colors in this painting. The oranges really stand out amongst the trees.The artist also uses motion. You can tell that the monkeys swinging.

I chose Monkeys in the Jungle because it really stood out with the monkeys and the colors. The colors are really realistic and so is the proportion. The monkeys are so cute and they really do look real. I like how the monkeys aren’t just sitting there, but actually doing what monkeys do. EAT. The monkeys are eating some fruit that looks like oranges.
Henri Rousseau is a post impressionist. That means that it was after the impressionist movement. He creates really great paintings and pieces of art. They all look so real and they are really well drawn.
