The Starry Night And Van Gogh

A person’s childhood could eventually lead them to either a success or failure. Two men, later to become widely known across the globe because of their success, have had situations that helped developed them during their childhoods. Two such men would be Frederick Douglass and Vincent Van Gogh. Both excerpts from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave by Frederick Douglass and Vincent Van Gogh: Portrait of an Artist by Jan Greenberg and Sandra Jordan, the reader gets an insight into their childhoods. Frederick Douglass was born an American slave, and became an abolitionist. Vincent Van Gogh, lived a normal childhood in the Netherlands, and became a famous painter after death. The childhood of Frederick Douglass lead to his success while the childhood of Vincent Van Gogh did not lead to his success while he was still alive.

One Art by Elizabeth Bishop is a poem that explores loss in comparison to an art; however, this art is not one to be envied or sought after to succeed at. Everyone has experienced loss as the art of losing is presented as inevitably simple to master. The speaker’s attitude toward loss becomes gradually more serious as the poem progresses.

There have been different art forms that have come and go over the course of time. Hence I will discuss, two significant movements like Post-impressionism and Pop art. Two important artists from these movements are, Vincent Van Gogh and Andy Warhol. There are many differences and very few similarities between these two movements and artists, although more differences. Van Gogh is one of the most captivating artists of post-impressionism. . Throughout his career Van Gogh has painted many works. One of those magnificent paintings is “Starry Night” by Vincent Van Gogh. In the other hand we will discuss one of the popular paintings “ Gold Marilyn” by Andy Warhol. Warhol is also the most famous of the Pop Artists and played a major role in making the art movement popular.

The life span of 37 years saw Vincent Willem van Gogh (Vincent) in creating beautiful works he dearly loved. Painting was an avenue, which allowed him to express his inner thoughts or vent his struggles. My decision to research on Vincent’s painting, Starry Night (1889) came with the inspiration from Don Mclean’s Song, Starry Starry Night where his lyrics spoke about Vincent’s life that further intrigued me in writing this paper.

``Do you believe that he thinks of it much?'' ``I believe it,''answered her father, mournfully. Have you any reason to believe that Lucie loves you?'' ``Entreat me to believe it no more, Miss Manette. I am sorry because I believe there is contamination in such a scoundrel.

It is important to see both close-up views, and faraway views to fully understand the world around us. Close-up views show us the detail that makes up the big picture. On the other hand, a faraway view shows us the whole thing, which may help us understand how things really are. For example, when you see the ‘Starry Night’ painting by Vincent Van Gogh, you see a moon with wind swirls around it, and at the bottom of the painting you see a small city. But if you look at the little detail under a magnifying glass, you see a whole new meaning to ‘detail’. In it you see each individual brush stroke, which faraway, just looks like swirls of color. Also, you see all the different colors put into let's say, the moon, and the waves. So in many

The villanelle poem “One Art”, written by Elizabeth Bishop is an optimistic tribute to her deceased lover and intends to reassure herself in her time of grief that it’s almost human nature to lose that which we love, considering her background in loss, her addition of impersonal comments, and her use of clever diction. The poem starts off simply talking about how there are things that we intentionally lose and gradually increases the significance of the thing we’ve lost until she’s talking about losing a loved one.

My name is Nassuel. Below is Vicent van Gogh's painting, "Starry Night." What I love about this painting is the abstract sky just before sunrise, as the sun's light is crawling above the mountains. I'm quite intrigued on what I'll learn about art this quarter as to what art stands for each culture around the globe and how they express

The easiest path towards eternal life is to get an artist to fall in love with you. A lot of people have looked for ways to live forever, not realizing that it is not our bodies who should remain, but our memory through our work or somebody else's. This idea takes a tragic twist in Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Oval Portrait." Many analysis focus on the character of the painter who, in his pursuit of capturing his wife's beauty and preserve ir forever, was in the end the responsible for her death. However, there are very few analysis that actually focus on the character of the portrayed woman, the one who actually met her end too soon. This paper will analyze

The night sky depicted by Van Gogh in the Starry Night painting is completed with of brightly colored stars, twisting clouds, and a bright crescent moon. This work almost has a dot-to-dot effect on the viewer's eyes because of the swirling motions moving in a circle through the middle of the painting, but Van Gogh uses the large tree and bright moon on different sides of the paper to give the painting unity. Starry Night is arguably one of Van Gogh's best paintings because of the excellent use of all the elements of art, which is hard to achieve in one piece of artwork.

This painting was inspired by Van Gogh numerous paintings of flowers (usually sunflower) in vases. This piece was made in a face-to-face art class, where one of my first projects was a to paint a piece modeled after any work from an artist of my choice. Flowers are something I have always drawn or painted, usually my "go-to," so this seemed like an obvious choice for me. Unfortunately, I am unable to find the original painting I was examining for my project, but Van Gogh had many pieces under that particular style. That being said, I started with a standard pencil to do the sketching as usual. Later when it came to painting, we diluted the paint with oil and used a mixing spatula too. Over the entire course of creating the piece, I was adding
