Analysis Of George Green's Spell Of The Magic Play

Lee Cockerell’s first leadership strategy that he outlines in his “Creating Magic” book is taking care of employees. In this instance Cockerell goes into detail on saying that in order to be able to run a very successful company the owners/company itself needs to give respect, appreciation, value, into everyone. He outlines this with his acronym RAVE (respect, appreciation, value, everyone). In doing so, the company will have a lot of loyalty and respect back from its employees. Cockerell implemented this concept with Disney, as Disney has the lowest turnover rate in their industry. By giving employers the RAVE treatment, employees genuinely care about their company because they view that the company cares about them. This method that Cockerell outlined in his speech and in his book is very similar to a leadership theory that we have learned in class this year, called path-goal theory. The path-goal theory is an ideology that focuses on the leaders to motivate their follower’s. In this instance Cockerell was in an executive position with Disney, and he had to make a decision on how to efficiently and effectively run the company through his position. He decided to motivate his employees through compassion. Cockerell was a very compassionate person towards his employees. One of the most significant ways that Cockerell was able to achieve this was with the RAVE method. The RAVE method was able to motivate his employees by giving them purpose in the business which created a

I read the play Marvin’s Room by Scott McPherson. I chose this play from three plays Burnett offered because the cover was blue and blue is my favorite color. The play is essentially the story of a woman named Bessie who finds out that she has leukemia and needs a bone marrow transplant. Through this tragedy her family which was separated comes together again. The theme of this play is that family will always be family. Many people in this play have issues. Hank is in a mental asylum, Marvin is bedridden and dying, and Ruth has back problems. Despite their problems all of these people still care about each other because they are family after all.

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight offers an example of game playing for didactic purposes. The Green Knight’s game drives the action and offers instruction for Gawain. However, the Green Knight was unpredictable when he announced the beheading game to King Arthur’s court.”The first is a beheading tale, which becomes the impetus behind Gawain's quest and frames the second tale, Bertilak's test of Gawain's honor.” ( John Jay and Teresa Sutton). With the opening game, the Green Knight tests Sir Gawain’s honor, nobility and worthiness as a knight when he tells Gawain to find him in a year's time.

     When I look at the texture of the painting, I do get a true sense of a wood floor, a wooden bed frame and a piece of fabric hanging from a nail. I think he might have used different techniques for creating various textures in the room. I think the floorboards are of multiple layers of paint, as to create the tones of the wood. I think that the bed frame, however, is just a single layer of paint, almost thin in nature. The texture of the glass in the window gives you a sense that there is an actual surface to the glass. His use of texture gives me a sense that I can walk right into this room.

Edvard Munch is regarded as the pioneer of the Expressionist movement in modern painting. At an early stage Munch was recognised in Germany and central Europe as one of the creators of a new and different movement of art, that helped artists to express their feelings about all the social change that was happening around them.

Paul Klee and his works are a direct representation of 20th century art. Klee’s roots in Futurism, Cubism, Surrealism, and Expressionism combined with his natural gift for drawing make him truly one of the most unique abstract artists of his time. Most artists of the time were trying to break away from traditional concrete artwork, however few succeeded with such natural beauty and talent like the simplicity of Klee’s paintings. Klee’s connection to 20th century art can be summed up in one quote by the famous artist: “art does not represent the visible; rather it renders visible (the

The Green Violinist by Marc Chagall is the work of art I am going to analyze. The Fiddler aka The Green Violinist is the main figure in this painting. He stands out more than any other figure. In this painting, The Green Violinist is on the roof of a house. Marc Chagall uses scale and proportion when making this painting. The angle of this artwork makes The Fiddler resemble a giant but he is not.. He doesn't seem connected to other figures in the painting. He looks like an outcast and doesn't fit in. In the background, I see a dog and his companion playing in the backyard. I also see a person in the sky "flying" and someone is trying to reach for them.

Texture and pattern are very easy to identify in this painting. The street’s cobblestones show texture and pattern in the way that they are arranged. Texture is also demonstrated through the paint strokes on the buildings, the tree, and even the sky. These thick, uneven strokes add a layer of depth and texture to all elements of the painting.

We can also see the use of black shades to create a hole at the bottom part of the rock. With his excellent use of colors, we can identify the good, healthy and green grass from the bad, unhealthy, brown grasses. Looking beyond the main focus of the painting, he uses colors to separate the sky from the land in the background creating a solid form of perspective on the painting. He also uses colors to create water forms as seen behind the young character. Now, for the sky, he uses shades of white to magnificently differentiate the thick clouds from the light ones. He also uses this to create a source to light to the whole area. All these put together creates a splendid, realistic and familiar atmosphere for the viewers to relate with.

Ultimately, colleges should actively be attempting to inhibit the amount of sexual assaults that happen on campus by improving security, allow law enforcement to handle cases, creating more approachable options for reporting sexual assaults, and holding self-defense classes. On March 31, 2016 President Barack Obama released a presidential proclamation addressing sexual assault, saying that we needed commit to shifting the “attitudes that allow sexual assault to go unanswered and unpunished, and we redouble our efforts to prevent this human rights violation from happening in the first place” (Obama). There needs to be a reduction in the frequency of these heinous crimes and security must be improved among all colleges. Lighting around the campus

Fish Magic is a combination of a charming scene decorated with vibrant colors to make one of the most famous paintings. The painting by Paul Klee has evoked multiple emotions in the audience, as it has it is full of aura. The Fish Magic by Klee was completed during his prime years as an artist before he died of scleroderma. The painting has however remained to be one of the pieces which sparked the creativity of the painter and infused a different level of skills to create a new figure.

Edvard Munch is regarded as a pioneer in the Expressionist movement in modern painting.

Trompe l’oeil is a realistic optical illusion; the whole point of this technique is to trick the eye. This technique dates all the way back to the Greeks with highly detailed murals. In the Renaissance time period, Italian painters began to paint celling paintings with illusions created with technique foreshortening and perspective. An example of one of the celling paints is the Camera degli Sposi (bridal chamber or painted chamber), done by Andrea Mantegna, which was painted between 1465 and 1474. The painting plays on the illusion of a circular spotlight in the celling with cherubs and Jesus looking down at the people in the building. Some features that you might see in a tromp l’oeil piece

Secondly, the light and colors help to enhance the piece. Due to the oil painting,

Art is experienced best on an emotional level rather than just the beauty, pleasure or understanding of it. Artists will use their form of artwork to pass along their views and feelings. Teresa López’s and Wendy Ewald’s “The Phantom” is a piece of art that invokes many emotions. It simulates both the possibility of comfort or fear of the unknown and the anxious waiting of the known through its immaculate composition. This is done through its use of dense distortion and contrasting colors. Through distortion the artists get us to focus on the phantom that is the only source of light and the contrasting colors make us realize how contrasting our perceptions can be.
