"Morning Awakening" by Eva Gonzales has many characteristics of the Impressionism art movement. Her use of color sets the mood for this painting, instead of the countenence of the subject in the painting. The light and soft colors make the atmosphere carefree and dreamy. The subject of the painting is in a sleepy state and Eva Gonzales is able to communicate that through her use of color and brush stroke. The colors surrounding the woman in this painting are only light shades of brown, and white. The garment she is wearing blends into her bed, and into her curtains, setting the focus solely on the women in the picture. This painting is true to its era, Impressionism, because it uses colors to show emotion and to create an ambiance.
