Judy Gibson painted this painting called “Cozy Cabin.” She uses pencil to capture the spirit and grace of home. It is an American painting for she has lived in Paris, Texas all her life.Judy Gibson’s painting is an example of realism because it’s representation is meant to be accurate. There is perfect harmony of all the objects that would remind one of comfort, such as the blankets, the dog, the fireplace, and the books. The way that all the furniture is in juxtaposition contributes to a sense of comfort. The focal point is the fireplace because all the furniture is arranged facing it and it is the brightest object in the room. There is emphasis on the fire because it is glowing and casting shadows. The scene outside the window is subtle because one might not notice it at first. The earthy tones, such as red and brown, create a comforting feeling. Also, the warm colors represent comfort.
This painting makes one feel cozy and warm. The mood is peaceful and relaxing. The moon reflecting off the water outside the window creates a tranquil feeling. The painting narrates that one would comfortably relax and unwind in front of the fire. The coats and fishing poles near the hooks in the corner suggest that after a day of fishing, someone might sit by the fire with his dog to unwind. The books and blankets indicate that someone might sit and read in front of the fire to relax.
