1)exactly what do you see in the painting? what is the 1st thing you look at?
2)is this an abstract or realistic
painting? why or why not?
3)explain how 2 elements are being used.
4)explain how 2 principles are being used.

So what the first thing you see in the painting. To me honest i saw the tree and the grass first.
I would say this picture is realistic because even though the painting is not the most realistic thing he/she tried to capture the blue of the sky the green brown color of the tree and grass. 
Could you be a little more specific for the last two what elements like paint brushes or oil paints? 

Aa i believe is the answer to your question
