...Sadamasa Montonaga exhibit. Several of the works that stood out to me used a variety of color and evoked feelings of sadness. In this paper I will analyze the feelings created by Kazou Shiraga in Difficult Voyage. The intense texture, use of contrasting colors, and the subject matter of a sinking ship culminates in feelings of sadness and despair while looking at Difficult Voyage. At the Dallas Museum of Art I saw Difficult Voyage by Kazou Shiraga and the painting really stuck with me. The painting tells a story through time about an accident on a ship. In the painting there are three recreations of the same ship in various states of being. The first ship towards the top is light and floating through the water normally with a relaxed passenger appearing safe and innocent. The second ship is on brighter as it is on fire and the passenger onboard is no longer calm but is working to stop the fire from sinking the ship. The third ship is partially submerged and the passenger is now dead and whiter than a ghost but the ship is covered in red. The painting has a very rough texture to it that alters how the light hits separate parts of the painting causing them to appear differently as the sun passes overhead. In addition the colors used shine daylight from the paintings light source on part of the painting while other parts are left in relative darkness. The painter uses a combination of pale and vivid colors to draw your attention across the canvas from the first thing you...

...ART 110 – Art Appreciation Assignment #1 1. Find and read the course document "Introduction – What is Art?" Write a brief response to the document. After reviewing ‘What is art’ by M. Cawley, I am faced with deciding what I believe to be the true definition of art. In as few words as possible, I would describe art as anything that moves you. A longer definition for me might reference arts ability to speak to our many senses through a variety of mediums such as paint, photography, words, or music. I believe art can be anything that appeals to your senses; even food can be art for both the eyes and the taste buds. 2. What is “art”? According to our textbook, Artforms by Patrick Frank, “a work of art is a visual expression of an idea or experience formed with skill through the use of a medium (Frank, p.3)” This means that if you develop a skill such as a painter or a guitarist, and you paint a picture or play a song, that would be you, the artist, creating a work of art. My own definition of art, as stated above, can be anything that ‘moves’ you. 3. Do you think you are greatly separated from the art world? Explain. I do not think I am separated from the art world. In fact, I feel very much a part of it. I have always had a love of architecture, am an amateur photographer, a lover of music and film, and think I have always been on the creative side. I still have my old notebooks full of sketches and poetry, and I love to spend my Sundays painting with my 5 year old, and...

...effects, shading, and so much more. 3. How is line used in the assigned work? Diego Rivera uses line for smoothness and texture in The Liberation of the Peon. His lines show the hair on the horses manes, the smoothness of the naked slaves body, the texture of the ground in the field they are standing in, and shows the transparent nature of the flames coming from the farm house in the background. 4. What is “shape”? Our textbook defines shape as, “the expanse within the outline of a two-dimensional area or within the outer boundaries of a three-dimensional object.” The word shape is described as being interchangeable with the words mass and form. I would describe shape as being the form that an object takes. Water can have a shape though that shape can change depending on the container of the liquid. 5. How is shape used in the assigned work? Rivera’s use of shapes within this political piece is hard for me to describe. On first glance I might say that organic shapes are used to show the people and horses; geometric shapes such as triangles are used to depict the mountains in the background. Additionally, his use of curved and often round or circular...

She cannot recognize faces-prosopagnosia (face blindness) “In college, on a date at the Spaghetti Station, I returned from the bathroom and plunked myself down in the wrong booth, facing the wrong man. I remained unaware he was not my date even as my date (a stranger to me) accosted Wrong Booth Guy, and then stormed out of the Station. I can’t distinguish actors in movies and on TV. I do not recognize myself in photos or video. I can’t recognize my stepsons in the soccer pick-up line; I failed to determine which husband was mine at a party, in the mall, at the market” This curious mix of “perfect” vision and face blindness illustrates the distinction between sensation and perception. • 1.

...A. Describe conidiospores and sporangiospores. 1. Identify a mold that produces each of these spores. Molds reproduce primarily by means of asexual reproductive. Conidiospores (conidia) a unicellular or multicellular spore that is not enclosed in a sac. Penicillium and Aspergillus are examples of molds that produce conidiospores. Penicillium is a common household molds and a food contaminant. Sporangiospores are formed within a sporangium (sac). Sporangia are formed at the end of aerial hyphae called sporangiophores e.g. Rhizopus can cause wounds and respiratory infections in the host with a compromised immune system (Gladwin, & Trattler, 2011). B. Describe a zygospore. 1. Identify a mold that produces zygospores. A thick-walled spore of fungi that is formed by union of two similar sexual cells, usually serves as a resting spore, and produces the sporophytic phase an example is rhizopus. It’s a black mold and grows on old bread and fruits. C. Describe what type of growth you observed in each of your substrates (e.g., number of colonies, shape, color, and defining characteristics). I saw about three different types of fungi on the bread. There was a dark green and white while the cheese only had some green fungi and all the colonies were all attached to each other looking like a sponge. On the strawberry I noticed a whitish-greenish-grey growth also with the hyphae growing outwards. It was all around the strawberry and the colonies...

...emotional appeal and tone build the writers credibility and enhance the essay will be discovered. For example, Virginia Woolf uses rhetorical strategies in “The Death of The Moth”. Woolf begins by using imagery effectively throughout her essay by strategically incorporating descriptive details. Woolf encountered this moth in the day time, so she begins her essay by stating, “moths that fly by day are not properly to be called moths . . .” (para. 1). This statement spikes wonder; what does that mean? She explains that moths in the day “ . . . do not excite that pleasant sense of dark autumn nights and ivy-blossom which the commonest yellow-underwing asleep in the shadow of the curtain never fails to rouse in us” (Woolf para. 1). Her sense of imagery is full of color and expression which helps her credibility in her writing. It truly makes you visualize that “dark autumn night” and “ivy-blossom” as if you experienced it yourself. Woolf continues her essay by using more imagery to describe the day of her encounter. As she was sitting by her window on a mid-September morning, she noticed the moth “ . . . fluttering from side to side of his square of the window-pane” (para. 2). Woolf stated “One could not help watching him”...

...One character who is mentally disabled is Lennie. Although the book never specifically explains what is wrong with Lennie, there are several examples that support his disability. Lennie is extremely dependent on George. George talks for Lennie and looks out for him. When George is trying to find a job for the two of them, he explains that Lennie was kicked in the head by a horse. Lennie would not be able to function without George’s help. Lennie’s actions gave George reasons to kill him after Lennie killed Curley’s wife. Slim explains why George should shoot Lennie instead of saving him: “An’ s’pose they lock him up an’ strap him down and put him in a cage. That ain’t good, George” (Steinbeck 97). If Lennie were locked up, he would be more likely to lash out. He may even cause more harm to animals and people since George would not be there to intervene. George is always the one to step in and calm Lennie down. Lennie’s mental disability does not give him those particular capabilities. Candy is another character who has a disability. He lost one of his...

Like any person I do get curious what really qualifies you as a senior citizen, some of my fellow co-workers say when you hit 60 to 63 because that is when it all starts to go. When they stopped laughing I did notice a change of apperence in the sence of when they were telling me the things they use to do two, to three years ago and know they can not or even do it a bit slower, also in body weight. One of the things that I have noticed in my observation was that most men had complaints about hair loss and the further they get into there later adult hood the color there hair changes now some change to a whte color and some tuen to this violet white color it is what I have noticed. Unfortunatly my dad is one of those who lose there hair as they get older, at this point I fear for my hair and try to take care of it as best aas I can by not wearing hats and but shampoo that is pro hair growth.(Witt&Mossler,2010, health and Physical Development, page6.

Describe why it is important to think critically and creatively in similar situations. * Most people use critical thinking and creative thought each day and don’t even realize it. One situation in which I could have used critical or creative though better was when I was developing one of my first new metal wall panel systems. We offer a wide variety of metal wall panel products for architectural construction and while developing a new metal panel system, I focused just a few aspects of the system that I was developing with out thinking of future needs or product expansion. I could have used critical thinking to broaden my perspective. * While what I was working on was good, it could have been much better if I had taken some time to set aside preconceptions and evaluated my creative concepts. If given the same situation I would take the opportunity to write down ideas then evaluate them based on there perceived values. Then after I was completed with my critical review I would also invite peer review to see if there was a perspective that I missed. * * Define free will, truth, knowledge, and opinion. Explain how we use them to form thoughts. * Free will is the ability to make a choice or decision on your own. Truth defined is...
