What I like about Dean Byington's The Black Sun is the monochromatic color scheme. The different shades indicate the detail of the landscape. It also takes advantage of the vertical perspective. It almost resembles the style used in Chinese paintings.
Philippe Decrauzat's Flag Wave creates the illusion of a waving flag. Its solid, curvy lines start apart at the beginning of each side of the composition. The lines come together to make the viewer look like they are seeing a real flag waving in the wind.
John Santoro's Beach: Winter Morning and Beach: Summer uses thick paint lines to simulate life by the seashore. The cooler colors used for the water give the viewer a sense of rest and relaxation. The thick lines are noticeable in Summer: Beach because it makes the viewer feel like they are getting wet at the beach.
Hiroshi Senju's Waterfall uses a greyscale color scheme to give a sense of nostalgia. The soft lines represent the soft, wet texture of the waterfall. The focal point is emphasized by the soft, white circle shape to represent the mist from the waterfall.
Lu Chao's Forest Art Fair uses thick, hard texture for the tree in the composition. The crosshatching on the ground makes the grass appear softer. The focal point are the tree and the heads that create a unity of otherworldly affairs going on in the composition.
