1. My expectation for this art calss was to learn more about art and get a credit and I most deffenitly learned more about art.
2. Now that i am finished with this class I would define art as EVERYTHING. Every thing around us can be used as art or a inspiration for art, for example using my dog in a picture to describe a art principle and or element.
3. My favorite artist will always be Leonardo Da Vinci only because of his artwork of the Mona Lisa.
4. I have taken a online course before but htis on ewas completely different but somewhat okay. A lot of homeowork though.

Project #5
2.The amount a value is seemed to be in great use in the portrait, because it is black and white contrast to help describe every detail. There is also movement in the portrait from the guy raising his hands and the guy being trampled on the ground. And last but not least unity to form this whole portrait together.
3.This portrait was domne during the age of Picaso. You can see in the photo there is a light bulb and I think this is a symbol of the future in technology. Also I think there is a little bit on violence and I think this is a representation of what society can come too.
4.This whole portrait is in dark type scene so I think this a angry or violent type emotion. The sword and animals with hornes symbolizes this.
5.The strengths of this portrait is the amount of unity and form in this portrait. Picaso makes the the black and white from each character and seperates it from the background. But ithe also makes you second look at each detail. The weakness is that this can be confusing and hard to undestand the portrait.
Art Gallery Visit #3
1. I chose these inpirational photos because they all had something different and special about them. For example the close up and the angle of the last photo. Also each photo had a good amount of detail to there portrait.
2. I choose to use pencil because this media is the easiesbt for me to use. This media isn't as hard to erase when I make a mistake.
3.The main challenge that I faced when creating this self portait was making my smile. I freaked out a little bit when trying to make my teeth and lips perfect, I erased them about 10 times. But to over come it I just decided to make them blank and create the border of my smile.
4. This piece of artwork represents me because this potrait is the day of my high school graduation.
5. The elements and principles that I used where alot of line, form and unity to make the portrait look more realistic.
6.Yes i really did enjoy wokring on this project because it was fun to make myself and see the resemblance to the actual photo.
7.I am not a great drawer but I think my final artwork was very succesful.

Reflection Journal
For my exhibit I chose people. People are art and people are the inspiration of art. People evolve everyday and each day that is a new kind of inspiration for artist.

Mask Making

I chose this mask as an example of fashion mask making. The facial expression on this mask shows how this mask is worn in theatre. The elements and principles shown in this mask are line, form and shape. The principles are unity and proportion.

I chose this mask because it different from the first one. This mask shows a diffenent type of fashion ans theatre. This mask also shows a little bit of culture of ying and yang. The element and principles that are shown in this mask are line, form, color. The prinicples are rythmn and unity.

Lastly, I chose this mask because it shows color into it. Its much different from the first two jmask but deffintley show the meaning of fashion and theatre. The elements shown in this mask is color, form, and value. The principles shown are proportion and emphasis.
I enjoyed making a mask of my own. The 3 masks that I have chosen have gave me great inspiration for my own, I took a little of each one of the mask to design mine. My mask has a little of me in it and has the fashion and theatre look also. My mask maybe simple but it has a lot of meaning. This mask has line, form, and texture. The principle showm in this mask is proportion, balance and unity.

Exploring Line
1. I enjoyed using my own hand as subject matter. It was different because when I do draw I have never used myself. I was a cool experience and I would would like to do it again.
2.The media that I chose to use is pencil. I chose pencil because I like pencil it gives me the better feeling that i am incontrol. I tend to find charcol a bit messy and when it starts to smudge too much i get fustrated.
3. I absoultly hated drawing with my left hand it was the most awkwardest think ever. I couldn't tell my hand what tob do, It was like my hand was it own person. The only thing that I could do right was the shadding of my tattoo on my wrist. I wouldn't try this again.
4. I do belive this is the best drawing of them all. My right hand drawing my hand was pretty decent but my left hand drawing my right was out of control.
5. No. But I kind of want to learn to control my left hand.

When younare reading the reading it is as like you hearing a story told from someone else but your weren't there. This was we get to see it from a diffenent persepective and also our own.
4.I actually enjoy the videos, even though there long there informational. And you get to see alot more "pictures" from when you reading the text, it most definetly adds depth.

2. When viewing both pages work for Project #1, i completly agreed with the decisons on what photos where taken do describe each element. It was great to see that both projects where different settings. That way I see compare the differences in each element.
3. I didn't do this project but it was great to see my peers and what they liked, saw, and what there views where on the paintings.
4. The process to reading you peers work can sometimes be hard because sometimes we all don'y agree on the same thing, but in my case I did and I enjoyed looking at my peers work, because I get to see what I can do to make my work better. This yes would be a value to my learning.

1. Key Concepts
Through the Eyes of the Sculpter
-Every Stone has the one type of smell
-When stone is wet it is heavier then when it is dry
-Sculpting takes patience
-Detail is created when clay is added and chipped at
Glass and Ceramic
-Glass is made from sand
-Glass is a liquid
-Fire is used to form glass
-Glass hardens when cold
-Before glass there was ceremic
-Ceremic is also made with fire
-Ceremic is rock
-Ceremic is harder that steel
2. The video and text both give the same protocol to what is talked about. The reading give more detail to what is going on while the video shows the hands on experience of whats being done.
3. Both videos give a lot of informative information. I loved the glass and ceremic video because i learned that glass was made from sand. But it was also good to know how sculptures are sculpted and how the detail is put into them. The videos added depth because they showed how each thing was made, in detail.

1.Discuss what you thought about creating the Value Scale and Color Wheel
When i was craeting the color wheel i found it very fun, it really wasn't that had to create. just mixing colors together to get a new color. But when creatingt the value scale, it got quite difficult because when I did it i couldn't get pencil the way I wanted it.

I enjoyed working with the color wheel more because painting is fun, and mixing colors together to create new color are exciting and cool.
3.What was the most important discovery in the creation of these studies?
The most important discovery in the creation of these studies was taking your time because the first time I did the color wheel I sorta rushed but then i didn't like how it came out so I did it again.

Module 3
1. Describe Color and it's effects on emotions.
Color comes in different shades that has different meanings. Each color ties to a different feeling that causes emotions. For example the color red usually means anger. So when a artist uses a lot of red in his or her painting it most likely means they are trying to expression their feeling of anger.
2. What is a theoretical aspect of color that most intrigues/fascinates you? Why?
The theoretical aspect of color that most fascinates me is the meaning of each color, like how we already know that when you see bright and excitings colors on a painting, you know the mood of thre painter is joy and happiness; vise versa when you see dark colors on a painting its means the painter could have been feeling a very dark emotion or sadness when the painting was created. It all flows together.
3. In the Color video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions?
What made a big impact on me is that color can be difficult to control. Only because color can really take a big impact on ones emotions. When you look at the colors of a painting you start to feel the mood of the painter. and sometimes you can feel the emotion of a painter.
4. In the Feelings video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions?
What put a big effect on me and what i've always thought was cool is when a painter creates a pictue, no matter what way or angle you look at the painting its all the same. (you can see the whole picture, it follows you) Or when Leonarda da Vinci crated the Mona Lisa, her eyes follow where you go.

Module 2
1. For each video and article list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Aesthetics - This was all new and different to me so everything seemed like a key concept. But the one things that stood out was when Georg William Hegel said "The work of art is a sensible object not only for the sensible intition but only for the spirit...The beautiful is defined as the appearence or the sensible reflection of the idea, of the Absolute."
Carta - This video as a whole had me a little confused because I can't connect the dots in where science and art combine.
CNN- What I found interesting in this article is that they explain how one sees a picture being three dimmensional; How the brain tricks one to think its three dimmensional.
2. Which philosopher's theory on aesthetics do you feel is most important? Be sure to mention the philosopher's name, era (time in history), and contribution to the aesthetic theory in your response.
I think Georg William Hegel of the late Enlightenment theories was more inportant because when he said this quote "The work of art is a sensible object not only for the sensible intition but only for the spirit...The beautiful is defined as the appearence or the sensible reflection of the idea, of the Absolute." to me he saying Art is a reflection of its artist and that is something I belive is 100% true.
3. What do you think about Changeux and Ramachandran scientific view of aesthetics and art? What was the most interesting fact you discovered from each speakers lecture?
Changeux and Ramachandran scientific views were both interesting to me and they both had something type of different theory and that made it more interesting. What I enjoyed from Changeux is the MRI pictures from the brain and the emotion. I found it very cool that you can see that all from a picture, in the brain. What I learned from Ramachandran was that art isn't to create a realistic picture but is used to rearange or alter something to cause an affect on the brain.
4. How do the videos and article relate to the readings in the text?
I alwasy find it helpful when there are videos to go with the text because then you don't just get a moving picture you get a better or different type of understanding to what the book has to offer.
5. What is your opinion of the films and article? How do they add depth to understanding of the topics in your reading in the text?
I enjoyed watching the aesthetics video because it was clean and understand and the video quality was great and I enjoyed Georg William Hegel's theory. The second video was interseting but the the speaker was hard to understand at times. These videos add depth because it gives you a visual and a clear understanding of whats being taught.

CNN- What I found interesting in this article is that they explain how one sees a picture being three dimmensional; How the brain tricks one to think its three dimmensional.
2. Which philosopher's theory on aesthetics do you feel is most important? Be sure to mention the philosopher's name, era (time in history), and contribution to the aesthetic theory in your response.
I think Georg William Hegel of the late Enlightenment theories was more inportant because when he said this quote "The work of art is a sensible object not only for the sensible intition but only for the spirit...The beautiful is defined as the appearence or the sensible reflection of the idea, of the Absolute." to me he saying Art is a reflection of its artist and that is something I belive is 100% true.
3. What do you think about Changeux and Ramachandran scientific view of aesthetics and art? What was the most interesting fact you discovered from each speakers lecture?
Changeux and Ramachandran scientific views were both interesting to me and they both had something type of different theory and that made it more interesting. What I enjoyed from Changeux is the MRI pictures from the brain and the emotion. I found it very cool that you can see that all from a picture, in the brain. What I learned from Ramachandran was that art isn't to create a realistic picture but is used to rearange or alter something to cause an affect on the brain.
4. How do the videos and article relate to the readings in the text?
I alwasy find it helpful when there are videos to go with the text because then you don't just get a moving picture you get a better or different type of understanding to what the book has to offer.
5. What is your opinion of the films and article? How do they add depth to understanding of the topics in your reading in the text?
I enjoyed watching the aesthetics video because it was clean and understand and the video quality was great and I enjoyed Georg William Hegel's theory. The second video was interseting but the the speaker was hard to understand at times. These videos add depth because it gives you a visual and a clear understanding of whats being taught.

The process of creating this gmail was lowkey hard because I never made a gmail acccount and i dint remeber the last time I made a email account. I didnt realize gow much verifying was required. But i got it done.
In this art class I don't just to expect to earm a credit but to learn more about art and how it is read. I think I said that right.
This is my second semester taking a online course and I hope it isn't like last semster. I found out that I can get notifications sent to my phone so that should make this a lot less stressful.
