Recap / Summer Camp Island S 2 E 13 Puff Paint

Go To

Oscar's painting is unpopular so he goes on a journey of self-discovery.


Tropes:

  • Art Initiates Life: The Moon shining through a tower make the camper's paintings come to life.
  • Be Yourself: Oscar's attempts to make his painting better come out flat because he's not being honest. In the end, his original painting that was regarded as lame turn out to be the perfect place to wind down after experiencing the more intense paintings.
  • Disney Acid Sequence: Oliver's painting is this, complete with characters with Rubber-Hose Limbs.
  • Everything's Better with Rainbows: Again, Oliver's painting.
    Oscar: (as he peeks into Oliver's painting) "What's so cool about music? And rainb-OH MY GOOD GRACIOUS!"
  • Portal Painting: The campers are able to go inside their own paintings.
  • Precious Puppy: Oscar's painting is of a puppy smelling a flower. When the others find it unexciting, he tries to add a second puppy not smelling a flower, as well as a third flower with no puppy. After trying to get some life experience to make art with more depth, he starts molding furiously with mud as inspiration strikes him; all he comes up with is a clay puppy.
  • True Art Is Angsty: Discussed In-Universe. Lucy's painting is dark and brooding, and everyone considers it the best in the gallery. However, too much time inside it makes people feel uneasy, and they go inside Oscar's calmer, less exciting painting to chill out.
