    I found this today while thrifting - the colors caught my eye from down the aisle!
    Is this surreal? Or expressionism?
    Does anyone know the artist - or, is the artist known?
    Thanks!

    It is Expressionist in style, but of a later period than the Expressionist movement in art.
    Expressionist is when the painter uses colours to express emotions in an otherwise relatively normal scene. For instance the sky can be green, the grass red.
    Surrealist is when the painter uses dreamlike images or scenes which don't occur in real waking life.

    Thank you Any Jewelry; probably the best - and easiest understood - answer ever! I'll remember that.
    Any idea of the artist - there are a lot of Del Campo's but I didn't see anything close to this in Images?
    Thanks again

    Sorry, no, can't find it either. Maybe our sleuths will come up with something.
    Glad to have been of help with the explanation.:)
