Name the painting above and its artist. what media was used to create this piece? why do you think the artist chose to use this media for this piece?

The Adirondack Guide by Winslow Homer. He probably used watercolors to convey a whimsical and water feel to the painting. Watercolors also blend very nicely and have bright pops of color which are ideal for a piece like this.

i got this answer from a really friend, and it was right.

hope this you like it me and a special to that dude!

artists need to create a realistic interpretation so that people in general can relate to the artwork. for a common people, an artist's impression gets increased only if he can create something which would look realistic. an abstract is difficult for a common people to understand whereas if a person can draw a girl with simple pencil sketch and if that looks like a real figure then the latter will be praised more than the former.

ill have to say true. hope this
