Bo Bartlett: "Young Life"

   Tuesday 10/02/12
   Art Selection: "Young Life" by Bo Bartlett: Make three claims about this painting. Support each claim with one fact about the painting. One claim should be about the culture of the artist.

   Claim 1: The painter is probably southern influenced.
     Fact to support: The man in the painting is holding a hunting rifle. (Hunting is   
      often seen as a southern label).
   Claim 2: The deer's placement is important and symbolizes the preservation         
   of the couple's culture.
     Fact to support: The deer is placed over the couple (like an arc).
   Claim 3: The couple is a happy couple.
     Fact to support: Body placement (close to each other, arm around each other,    
      woman resting her head on man, etc.)
