...Analyzing Art For this module assignment I chose to do my paper on "Vincent van Gogh, Still Life of Oranges and Lemons with Blue Gloves, 1889". I chose this painting because I am rather familiar with it. In elementary school my teacher had us try to draw a painting by Van Gogh and this is the one I chose (didn't come out too pretty). My grandmother also has a imitation of the painting in her dining room. Today, Vincent van Gogh is widely regarded as one of history's greatest painters and an important contributor to the foundations of modern art. The completion date of this post-impressionism still life, was in the year of 1889. The place of creation was Arles, Bouches-du-Rhône, France. Vincent van Gogh painted this picture soon after his release from the hospital, where he was recovering from the disastrous final days of Paul Gauguin’s stay with him in Arles. In a long letter to his brother Theo posted January 23, 1889, he mentions creating this painting alongside several other issues, including the need to make money through picture sales. He likely had the market in mind in painting this still life. Van Gogh was clearly attracted to the shapes and hues of the citrus fruit arrayed in the wicker basket, and the way their varied orb shapes play against the weave of the dried sticks, the whole set off by the prickly needles of the cypress branches. Van Gogh refers in his letter to an “air of chic” in this picture, prompted perhaps by the inclusion of blue garden gloves. The...

...and aunt. Bach had 20 children altogether (music was not all he was good at!). Three of his children grew up to be respected composers also. Q2 Do brilliant musicians get their talent from their parents, or is it due to the environment they grow up in? Bob has an identical twin brother, Bill. At first people cannot tell them apart. However, it does not take long to notice slight differences in their faces. Identical twins have identical genetic information. Therefore any differences between them should be due to the environment. Q3 What environmental factors, do you think could cause these differences? Bob bought a packet of sunflower seeds. The packet says that the plants will grow to about 2m in height. He planted half the packet in his garden and gave the rest to Bill who lives in the next village. Bill complained that her sunflowers grew much shorter than in Bob’s garden. Q4 What explains the difference between the flower height in the 2 gardens?...

(Here are few spaces for her to bite...All Face Book Lovers) Released her to make that vow. To Just stroke once.. Now in a lily-cup, and now Setting a jacinth bell a-swing, In his wandering; Sit closer love: it was here I throw I made that vow, Swore that two lives should be like one As long as the sea-gull loved the sea, As long as the sunflower sought the sun,-- It shall be, I said, for eternity 'Twixt you and me! Dear friend, those times are over and done, Love's web is spun. Look upward where the poplar trees Sway and sway in the summer air, Here in the valley never a breeze Scatters the thistledown, but there Great winds blow fair From the mighty murmuring mystical seas, And the wave-lashed leas. Look upward where the white gull screams, What does it see that we do not see? Is that a star? or the lamp that gleams On some outward voyaging argosy,-- Ah! can it be We have lived our lives in a land of dreams! How sad it seems. Sweet, there is nothing left to say But this, that love is never lost, Keen winter stabs the breasts of May Whose crimson roses burst his frost, Ships tempest-tossed Will find a harbour in some bay, And so we may. And there is nothing left to do But to kiss once again, and part, Nay, there is nothing...

...mystique about sustainability and propagating life, whether human, animal or plant. With plants, the work is almost unquestioningly left to ‘experts’, even though the processes are natural and have gone on since time immemorial. “Experts” may have their place, but when it comes to the incredible variety of vegetables available, backyard seed-savers also deserve due recognition. Saving the seed from any heirloom vegetable is easy. If you have a favorite variety, or even just want to try seed saving for the fun of it, take a few minutes to learn about the process and give it a go. Many of us learn about the basic principles of seed saving in grade school. Kids are usually taught how to collect seed by drying and picking apart enormous sunflowers, or by threshing pods filled with colorful beans. These are all wonderful, hands-on projects for children, which teach practical, sustainable and real-world lessons....

...raising eight children in a three bedroom house by herself, and she wasn’t able to provide certain things we needed at times. I do remember one special birthday that made me realize how important family means to me. On March 22, 1979, it was a warm, beautiful, breezy, summer day, and I could hear the chirping of baby birds in their nest. Upon my face shined the bright sun through my bedroom window. This day represented my birth right of turning fourteen years old, and I needed to figure out what to wear on this special occasion. As I walked toward my closet door, there was a breeze of warm spring sunflowers gathering in each corner of my bedroom. As I inhaled this delightful smell, I thought of my favorite sunflower dress to wear. The length went below my knees and it had two straps on each shoulder. The base color of my dress was pure white cotton material with medium sunflowers patterns around the bottom. I chose my flat flip-flop scandals and brushed my hair into a ponytail with a white ribbon tied in a bow. At that moment in my life, I felt like a beautiful young lady. As I stood in front of the mirror admiring myself, a loud knock rattle from the other side of my bedroom door. I opened the door, and there stood my sisters and brothers with the excitement of “Happy Birthday” roaring off their tongues. My eyes began to fill with tears just knowing that my family was as excited as I was about my special day. We all decided to run...
