Edward Hoppers Research Paper

Edward Hopper's style of painting is realistic, and often hyper-realistic in their near-photographic imagery. However, his early career was also influenced by Impressionism. Most of Hopper's canon of work consists of oil paintings, but he has also produced a substantial number of watercolors and prints. In his paintings, Hopper generally covers the theme of modern American life.

The mountains are a beautiful adventure. As you walk up the incline, trees overhang, animals run wild, and rivers roar. All of these are things that keep me coming back to hike. On my most recent hike, while it may have been 100 degrees back home, where I was it was a chilling 40 degrees. As we walked around ten miles up and over the mountain, I took many breaks to catch my breath and take in the majestic scenery. There are also the snow skiing vacations. While you can’t see anything besides snow and trees, the adventure of cruising down the slopes is full of adrenalin. The mountains have always signified an adventure for me. Just like the mountains, life is a beautiful adventure. I do not know yet what adventures are in store for my life, but I look forward to them. I strive to see the beauty in everything.

TD Jakes has one amazing thing to say after another. I'm not exaggerating. I can't count the number of aha moments I've had while listening to him.

His mission is helping people find their purpose and fulfill their destiny, and we can all benefit from that kind of person.

Father and I instead went to Bud Murphy's bar and restaurant, located in Connellsville PA. Like Parkwood, Bud Murphy's is famous for their pizza. We had a nice a nice appetizer platter that featured onion rings, hot wings, baked potato slices topped with cheese & bacon bits, fried zucchini and provolone sticks. The pizza was genuinely delicious. I had Diet Pepsi to start and then ordered a draft Miller Light. After dinner, we went to the PNA club in Arnold City and drank with Lisa & Pam Hill. Pam said I looked "skinnier and older," a compliment I much appreciated. The bartender at the Polish club is a sexy twenty-something; she is the reason it is tolerable there. On this day in 1804, Meriwether Lewis and Willaim Clark left on their

We must provide the greatest amount of good for the greatest number of people. (Stuart Mill). Stuart mill a Utilitarian would also say that we must consider the consequences by which an action may bring in order to justify whether something is justified morally right. As a result, in modern times Stuart mill would likely agree with a bill to prevent Syrian refugees from coming into the U.S but disagree with banning the practice of Islam. Therefore, arguing as a utilitarian under mills principles, I would agree with the bill to prevent Syrian refugees from entering the U.S because it will provide greater happiness for over half the concerned population in the U.S in comparison to 10,000 refugees and also arguing as a utilitarian I do not agree that the practice of Islam and their mosques should be considered illegal because by making it illegal it will in turn create more negative consequences and many would act on self interest to prohibit the religion.

Hopper is a great choice for the 20th Century! While he is a popular Early 20th Century painter, he was not interested in the limelight. Many painters became popular public figures. Hopper was more like the figures in his works. There tend to be a few figures, but they all seem isolated or disinterested in those around them. Isolation and alienation were two ideas that were explored by Hopper. While this work suggests there is something of interest outside the canvas, we do not know what it is. In addition, whatever it is, the women is alienated from it by the window. At some point, we all feel this way, and I think that is why we connect with Hopper's work.

Observers of Van Gogh’s life believed that his eccentricities, compounded to create many distressing experiences that directly impacted the development of Expressionism. This was visible from his early childhood. Painting was no longer seen through pictures, it became a crucible that could hold all of the artist’s passions, conflicts, and unrealized dreams.

Edward Hopper is a renowned American painter. In the poem “the house by the Railroad,” he tries to portray a picture of a house erected beside the railroad. This poem seems to bear a lot more than what its simple title indicates. He has used the railroad to emphasize the rift between the viewer’s world and the picture space. The more one tries to penetrate the depths of his paintings, the more difficult it becomes. Hopper’s artistic vision was in line with his view of the contemporary world and nature. This piece of art symbolizes loss that is felt when present progress leaves behind an agrarian society the central theme being the Alienation of modern life.

Hopper was not a popular painter until around 1924 when his first realism painting was entered into an art show and was later bought. Before this Hopper was popular in his watercolor painting more so than any of his other painting styles. Hopper created many depressing, lonely paintings that captured the everyday life of the American people in the 20th century. A novelist and blogger from New York, Annie Proulx (2017), says,“Realism was for the masses, for the boob who declared: “‘I don’t know much about art but I know what I like.’”(para. 16) this quote is important because Hopper created paintings that interested the biggest group of art observers, the beginners. Hopper captured the interest of the people who just started showing interest in art, even with this Hopper was able to create simple paintings that attracted the eye of beginners but drew in critics because of his undecided tones and his underlying meanings. Cape Cod Evening was painted in 1939. Hopper created the painting by incorporating many of his surroundings. The grass and the locust grove that takes up a majority of the painting can be seen from his studio in New York, where he and his wife Jo did most of their work. The Victorian house is from memory of a small town in Massachusetts that Hopper and his wife recently visited. The man, woman, and dog are also created from memory. Hopper said he gave the people in the painting specific

Vincent Van Gogh is one of the most famous artists of all time. He is known for his paintings and is hailed as the quintessential expressionist painter in history. Yet, Van Gogh lived one of the most troubling lives one could ever imagine. Almost every painting can be viewed as a look into his troubled soul. Van Gogh’s Paintings today can be sold for millions of dollars, but during his life time he sold a single painting for a measly 40 francs. Van Gogh’s legacy has left behind stories of greatness and sadness having to do with both his personal life and his career as an artist.
