The artist uses different tones of the green color and yellow color to represent the foliage.  The trunk of the tree is illustrated through combining of different tones of the color brown and lines. The different tones of the yellow visualizes the reflection lights of the trunk, while the lines provide unique textures to different part of the trunk. The artists employees warm tones such as orange color and brown color to incorporate words with the trunk above them. The warn tone of orange color and white color at the bottom of the image also establishes a sense of warm and fresh mood. Fresh and bright color symbolizes the vitality of the designer. The artist emphasis the bright tones in order to bring the foliage out of the image. However, the shadow is also an important tone on this image. It enables the image to be seen as a three dimensional images instead of dull and normal flat image. The artist employees line element and dot element to represent this image. The most interesting part in this picture is that dots are made by lines.


There are enormous color usages within this image.  The artist uses enormous saturation color to represent the fresh tree. The designer carefully chooses color usages to incorporate objects as one central concept while arrange them to form strong contrast with each other. One of examples is that the artist places yellow trunks within the large green brushes to emphasis their existence. It also enables the liveness within the trees due to the numerous extensions of the trunks. The color brown and the color green are highly contrast at the first glance in order to establish the feeling of brush and trunk. However, due to their closeness within the color table, these colors also create a unite feeling within the entire foliage.

The shapes of foliage is very interesting especially the shapes within the brushes. The brush shapes create an feeling of liveness due to extensions of the brushes from the trunk.
