In Fauvist principles colors were freed from their typical use. For example, plants were no longer only restricted to colors like green and brown. Fauvist painters were able to manipulate emotion with the use of powerful color positioning. Fauve paintings consisted of intense brushstrokes, rich surface textures, energetic linear patterns, and bold colors in order to arouse the emotions of their viewers. There is notable influence from Post-Impressionistic painters such as Van Gogh whose legacy was built upon during this movement. Fauvists also noted their influence from Impressionism, which they desired to develop on. Although the movement did not last long, they did help evolve the direction of painting by liberating the restrictive functions of structure and color.
