These two paintings have very different moods. The mood in the first painting reminds me of a parent struggling to convince their child to do something, like play that cello on the floor, and the child is struggling to resist this lesson, both people in the painting seam a little frustrated with each other by their body language, his elbow on the table thing, and how she is angled towards the window with the cello aimlessly laid on the floor. This painting has an "ughh" mood. While the second painting is very different. The woman in the painting is leaning against the wall with her hand holding her head. She seams to be struggling with something, maybe something bad just happened and she is wondering what she has to do about it? And because the theater is empty, and it is probably after a show because all the lights and things are still on, is she thinking about her life? Does she want to be where she is, singing or acting or whatever shes doing there? This paintings mood is very gloomy and sort of sad.
The thing that the paintings have in common would be that the characters are all seemingly struggling with something.
