The question is can any obstacle or disadvantage be turned into something good? Yes it can,

Islam not only impacted the world on a spiritual level but also an artistic level. The spreading of the Quran and the teachings of Muhammad were held as one of the highest priorities. For this reason Muslim Calligraphers were held in high

There exist three basic components of traditional Islamic art: calligraphy, geometric patterns, and floral and vegetal motifs. These three stylistic tools are beautifully rendered and masterfully integrated into complex works of art, but there is no question that artistic expression is severely limited under these categorizations. However, this limitation stems from Islamic theology and concept of art. The main reason for the limitation imposed on visual art is the Islamic theological prohibition of figural imagery. Social laws presented in the Hadith prevented the representation of figures because any imitation was deemed idolatrous. Also, art is considered to be decorative and imitative. Script and patterns are used to decorate

The first thing to note is the overall composition of the painting. First and foremost it is a landscape painting. The colors are very monochrome; the space is stretched to reveal a depth to the painting that the eye cannot capture; and there is stillness to the art that embraces nature and serenity of life. In the right-hand corner of the painting there is calligraphy. The calligraphy lacks the precision, but is very clear in its form, much like the depiction within the painting

The artist pays very little attention to details choosing instead to use hieroglyphs to ascertain meaning to what he was trying to portray. The hieroglyphs he uses range from the identities of the god and goddesses to the inscriptions on the top of Prince Ankh-Nef-Nebu to the message at the bottom.

The extensive and winding designs include a plethora of motifs and symbols each with their own specific meaning. There are many common symbols used like “men, animals, birds, or other man made objects. Each of the geometric designs… had multiple meanings based on placement on the body, incorporation with other designs, and the person being tattooed.” (PBS). The artist was held in high regard within society, and the “inspiration was regarded as a gift from the gods…”

The dimensions of the sculpture are not known from the research as the Saudi government has the polytheistic sculptures and work censored. Saudi Arabia only lends the sculptures to the Non-Muslim country museum with strict censorship deal with the loaned country. Most of the polytheistic sculptures were destroyed in Muhammad’s time when Islam started to grow. The relief is stone carved with written language which might say “Blessings to the tribe”. The line structures are both thick and thin.The contours are flat with rounded faces and triangular noses. The texture would have been smooth and detailed. There is no color in the sculpture; it would be left as natural white color of the limestone. This sculpture would have become

Shirin Neshat is an Iranian visual artist, who is well-known for her works in films as well as photography. After graduating from school, she moved to New York and married a Korean artist. This picture is quite evocative and convoluted. It’s a representational artwork. Its dimensions are 33 x 22.2 cm. (13 x 8.7 in.). It’s interesting to me because the woman in the picture silently expresses a lot. It is quite comprehensible. The image represents Islamic religion in which a woman stands up to defend her religion and explain that her religion is transparent and that it is not as deficient as it is deemed by other people, nonetheless, they are not given equal rights. Rather, their past efforts are overlooked.

The use of the oil paint falls from broad and gestural to refined and purposeful. Over all the painting style is semi-loose to retain essential information within the painting. The worm colors bring a comforting feel to the piece of thoughtful solitude and prayer. Although this painting depicts what life may have been to Indigenous people in the 19th century, the artist shows his lack of understanding of the culture. Respect is one of the core values to many planes people and respect goes further than the relationship between people but all things in life such as birds and stone and plants. They all have a sprit that is considered a relative. The problematic aspects of this painting are how sacred items are leisurely treated as objects. The three most noteworthy items are the cha’nupa, cansiga, and waph’a’ha. First, the cha’nupa should be propped up or held and not let be lying on the ground and put together. Second, the cansiga should also be propped up and face up at all times. Finally, an eagle feather or waph’a’ha should never touch the ground. These are things that can be damaging to our own understanding of history, Indigenous culture and spirituality. Although this is just one painting a person without the cultural knowledge could see this and believe that the treatment is tolerable since this is a paining from the past and insightful artist. This paining wile well

‘If the road is easy, you’re likely going the wrong way.” What this means is that people need struggles in their daily lives to accomplish desired goals which might not be easy. This is so true such as living in the 21st century where their is constant violence towards people fighting for peace and a better tomorrow. There is a film, The Lone Survivor, that also shows people experiencing violence fighting for peace in Afghanistan. Also, there is the movie, The Lost Boys, where people fight for survival and their religious beliefs. In addition, there is a television show called, Naked and Afraid, where people are sent to Africa to learn survival skills. Films and shows now at days show how struggling for real causes is not easy, but a way

There is a popular American saying that money rules all. We see this statement manifest itself in legal laws via bail money. Socially, we see the influence of money through preferred restaurant seating for wealthy patrons. After physically trying to escape the U.S.’s racist take on laws, African Americans in the early 20th century use economic power to swing the subjective nature of French laws in Paris.

The lines are thin and smooth just as a person’s skin would be. In this work of art you see nature and things that are more realistic. Happiness is defiantly shown in this work of art. This picture expresses how women sometimes have to take on the mother and father role. The woman and her son are still happy and full of joy. The material used for this work is paint which includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor. I see oily, metallic, smooth, and coarse textures in the painting.

Living in a world full of arguments and conflicts, someone easily gets himself into troubles. How I deal with everyday arguments is crucial for me to accomplish my goals and have stability in my life. Decision-making process takes a good portion of my time and I will not regret this ever. I do not claim that all my decisions ended being the best choice, but I am always happy with my fate.

A teenager with much to learn and experience in life. Complicated paths are the most intriguing since you're forced to put in your utmost effort and achieve possibly surprising outcomes. I've put my past aside to focus on my future goals and to make the most out of my days, though I may be young, I realize they are numbered so there is not time for relaxing. What usually interests me are humans themselves. The way they interact with others, their body language, emotions, anatomy, plus many other factors, yet psychology nor sociology are my desired college majors. Reason being, I plan on discovering more as a hobby. I do plan on creating a business later on, (Which I don't know of what sorts yet) so gaining useful knowledge on how to manage
