First Piece Of Art By Maria F. Simoes

I believe that it is important to look at are because in almost everything that you see or do, it's there. Art may not be essential to us in this world but it does bring joy to people. In my opinion art can be described as a beautiful or powerful piece that is created through ones imagination or from a story usually being in a painting or sculpture. The thing that impressed me the most throughout this week was actually in the chapter one reading and it was the piece by the name of: Her Secret is Patience. This piece was created in 2009 and the person who created it was, Janet Echelman. this is a piece that reaches a height of 100' and its top diameter is also 100'. The artist created this piece from: fiber, steel, and lighting. These elements

In art, there are qualities that speak louder than words. It expresses many different messages and emotions and each person has an experience different from the next. In this paper, I will be discussing two artworks I encountered. The piece is a good example of how people can encounter different experiences in one piece. I attended the Orlando Museum of Art a while back with family and overall enjoyed my experience. On my visit, I found the museum quite impressive and felt a deep connection with specific pieces.

It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words, but maybe they are worth far more than that. Pictures, although seemingly simple in nature, are extremely complex. Far too often, people overlook what a picture truly is. When a person looks at an image, they most likely see only the image, nothing else. Many people do not look deep enough into an image to fully comprehend the true meaning of it. However, when an individual begins to truly study an image in an attempt to understand the true complexity of it, they will be surprised at what they overlooked before. As stated by French Realist Painter, Gustave Courbet, “Fine art is knowledge made visible.”

First, they point out that “practices of looking are never neutral; rather, they are both selective and biased.” (Ott, Aoki, and Dickinson, 2015, p. 217). Furthermore, the way CFM presents their exhibition after the glass limited the sense of the visitors, because just looking means “to not touch, to not hear,

However, our trip did not last countless hours as I looked over 30 paintings in about twenty five minutes. This was not due to my lack of interest, but more to my novice mindset towards art. Art is similar to most skill activities in that people that are active in said activity can better understand and articulate the small actions that lead to a great piece of art, a great football play, or a great movie. I am embarrassed to say that I did not pay close enough attention to the intricacies of my dad's art, but I accepted to write these articles in hopes I could learn more about my dad's favorite past time.

Students through the process of art appreciation will build connections through the exploration of textures, lines, colour and shape when describing, analysing, interpreting and judging the artworks before them (3 chosen images). They are asked to describe what they see, the artist’s use of colour, lines, shapes and texture. They then move onto analysing; what catches their eye, is the composition balanced and do the paintings look flat or do they have depth. The discussion then progresses onto interpretation where students are able to express what type of emotion they feel when looking at the pictures, perhaps the kind of sounds they might hear if they could step into it, and why they think the artist chose this particular subject to paint and what may have inspired the artist.

I could understand art beyond others’ opinion about them. Moreover, I realized that it was a

At the California Center of the Arts I learned a lot about many artists and their many works of art. Throughout the Heated exchange exhibit of Contemporary Encaustics, Jan Jaylo: All these answers that may never come out and Living with the muertos: A Dia de los Muertos Experience by Daniel F. Martinez I learned many interesting facts that change the way I view art work.

My experience to the Dallas Museum of Art was a bit different from the last time I had attended the museum. I was curious to see what pieces of art there would be and if it would be the same as the previous visit which was long ago, but to me all the pieces of art were so different and very interesting. It may have been because I saw all the pieces in a new perspective since learning about the different types of paintings there can be and knowing how and where sculptures come from. Even though I do not know much of art I really gave it a try into seeing what the artist may have wanted us to get out of his work. By reading a view of the chapters made me aware of art, I wouldn’t call myself an expert, but it was actually nice knowing that a

Acceding to these demands, in 1924, he introduced two original models, Kettle Holders and The Windmill Woman, both 9 inches high. From extant examples of Kettle Holders, it would appear that the Vyses decorated this figure in a single colour way (Fig. 59). However, there were variations to the decoration of the patchwork kettle holders, bonnet ribbons, and these are possibly dependant on the application of the underglaze colours by individual painters. Apart from the kettle-holders, there are no bold primary hues to capture the attention. The cape is occasionally painted blue or purple, and the kettle holders often differ in pattern, however, the rest of the painting is usually the same. Additionally, it is possible that the subject of an elderly woman making her living by selling pot holders did not win the sympathy of the buying public. This may have been a possible reason for the lack of variety of the editions. The Windmills figure, a vibrant composition with just two distinct colourways recorded (Fig. 60). Vyse again uses the unfastened button on the subject’s bodice as a metaphor for the subject being poor or working class. Nell Vyse oversaw the decoration of Windmills, and determined the colour ways that alter slightly in each edition. The number and placement of windmills can differ within all editions. Kettle Holders and Windmills seemed not to have the expected impact on Doulton, which must have deflated Vyse’s expectations. A paradox that Vyse could not resolve was this; which was the worst, to be copied or simply

Intrinsically intriguing as the artworks and themes are for many viewers, what lies with greater uniqueness is the visual context of art, as emphasized by Helena. Artworks, despite the era or time period, are always initially distinguished based on the surface; for example, what’s present and what’s going on. As I tour the Grohmann Museum with Helena, I was taught to look at the furthest distance in the portrait rather than the surface.

Art is simple. Art is complex. Art is everything. Take a moment, everyday, to find art in the surrounding world. By doing this simple task, the understanding of art emerges. This

As onlookers peer into the artworks in front of them, there is no question as to whether or not they considered what the artwork means, where it came from and what the artist was interested in who created it. The

The area of art is popularly known for heightening emotions, challenging stereotypes, and ultimately providing insights into how individuals view the surrounding world. The artist and the observer time and time again see pieces in overwhelmingly different ways. Individuals may wonder why this is so. What could possibly create such a drastic change from one perspective to another? When it comes down to it, experiences are the answer. The artist and the observer have different
