Document Summary
Impressionists used unmixed colors on a canvas next to each other so that the colors would mingle and create the impression of another color. They would try to capture the momentary effects of sunlight and the changing color of a scene by painting outside. Later in the years monet"s works became more dull and muted from his previous vibrant works and he used more red-yellow colors in his later works. Later monet realized that it was not his style that had changed. He suffered from cataracts (vision deteriorating) and the lens of his eyes became more opaque. It is a source of energy that sustains all life. Some organisms such as the green algae c. reinhardtii use it for both energy and information. The algae have a large chloroplast that use the light for photosynthesis to make energy rich molecules. The cell also contains an eye spot that senses the intensity and direction of light.
