2. When looking at Project #1: (Elements and Principles), did you agree with the element or principle the artist listed with the images? Did you see other elements and principles in the images?

 Yes, while looking at Matt's Wall Art, I found his photo of sunflowers held more than just pattern. I found while looking at it that it also has, unity, line, and color. The yellow stands out so much to me and for that reason I think that color is another category that this photo fits under. Also I noticed the dirt line through the rows and my eyes followed that up to the background which was something that adds so much to the picture as well. 
3. When looking at Project #2: Where there any images in the Peer Blogs the same as your own? If yes, what were they? Where the reasons the image was selected the same or different as your own?

 Dare to Create and I both had chosen "Convergence". I agreed with everything they had to say when reading their explanation on their blog. The painting gives such an amazing feeling while looking at it and really makes you step back and just say "wow' and then have so many questions. One thing about that artwork is still why I feel such a connection to it. I have complete answer to that yet but it really gives off a vibe that draws me in. Overall I think that the painting had similar effects on both of us. 

 4. Where there any images that your Peers selected that pique your interest now? If yes, what are they and what is your connection with them? What would you want to know about them?

 Matt's Wall Art selected a piece of artwork named "Sky Cathedral". This piece of art drew me in and had my interest right from the first time I saw it. This piece of artwork put so many questions in my head and had me looking at it over and over to see if there was anything I missed. That is overall why it grabbed my attention, because I kept noticing more detail as I looked over it. 

 5. What do you think about  the process of reading your peers reflection? Do you find this to be a valuable in your learning?

 I think the process of reading my peers reflections and reading the comments I was given is such an important apart of art and learning. Being able to hear and take input or look at things from another perspective allows you to really free your mind and open up to the world of art that we live in . I think it is something that is very helpful to all of us.

Module 2

Key Concepts: After watching the videos and doing the reading I learned that art is constantly evolving. The ideas of influential change and they tend to change the ideas in which people view art and understand it. Though this is not talked about in the videos or reading, music interest changes over time as does other forms of art such as, painting, poetry, and plays. The change on art aesthetics changed and continues to change over time. Another topic discussed is how our brains are able to distinguish things in art even though they are 2 dimensional. Our brains allows us to read into what we are seeing and develop an understanding of it. Lastly a key concept also talked about is the use of color to please the eye and allow it to look like it is 3 dimensional when we look at it. This allows us to look deeper into it, as talked about in the video, symmetry is also used to do this.  Morris Weitz "what I am arguing then, is that the very expansive, adventurous character of ar...

Module 9

Module 9. Question 1. Using my hand as the subject, I hand to look at it in deeper detail. Also keeping it steady and not moving it to much in order to keep the same view was difficult. Question 2. For this project I chose pencil. This was because I knew I was going to struggle while using my left hand and it would be easier to erase multiple times. Question 3. It felt awkward using my left hand. I felt like finding even the most comfortable way to hold it was very challenging during it. I did like how I drew lighter because i wasnt able to push down as much. Question 4. I think they are successful, each in their own ways. Using my left hand was difficult but I was still able to work towards the detail I was able to add with my right hand. Question 5. Yes, Though a struggle for me, I see where I could gain while making art if I give something a go with my left hand. Something unintentional could happen but lead me in a new direction and bring success.

Project 1

Line: Hockey Sticks Value: Black and White Image Shape: Box with circles Form: Jar in Snow Space: Street Light Color: Bright Orange Shoes Texture: Cinnamon Buns Balance: The River Contrast: Kid in Color on Black and White background Movement: Hockey Slapshot Emphasis: Face Shot Pattern: Suite case Proportion: Toddler in proportion to everyday living Unity: The Puzzle During the early stages of doing this project I found it challenging to find and create pictures that were able to represent the words and definitions above. Once I began taking just a couple pictures, I couldn't put my phone down and looking at things in different ways. When doing this project I allowed myself to look at the things around me with an open and free mind and photograph a lot of the everyday things around me that represent the definitions. This project was one that truly allowed me to free my mind and look at everyday things I see in a more creative and expressing way. During this project m...
