Stippling

“Once upon a time”… you know the story, were the prince goes to great lengths to rescue the princess from the witch or the dragon, maybe even some curse, they fall in love and live happily ever after. If only relationships were that simple, and not that sexist, how happy we all would be. However, for those of us that live outside the world of fairy tales, we know how unrealistic this is. In taking the time to look at “real” relationships, we see that they have many complexes; multiple facets that

My presentation was on Art. I felt it was important because it is a big part of the world and without art our world would be so dual. Art starts way back used by cave mans it has a history to it. Without history there is no present day. Between the history and advantages and such I could go on and on about how useful it is. The invention in art such as the lead tube. It allowed for paint to stay fresh and not dry out. It was able to be portable which lead to many more artists painting outside.

Being a city dweller, I have been surrounded by many tall concrete buildings but it was the Starhill Gallery which inspired me towards architecture. From the name itself, the design was taken from the outline of crystals and stars and it became the most iconic shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur. I first encountered architecture when I took Art Studies as one of my subjects during SPM in high school as I loved to draw and paint at a very young age. I did a 4 month product design related project and the

The Milkmaid, painted by Johannes Vermeer, shows a woman working in the corner of, what looks like, a kitchen. There is a large window that starts at the top and ends about halfway down the wall that the woman is facing. To the right of the window, there is a small black frame near the top of the wall and a woven basket hanging under it. On the other wall, there is a metal basket with a long handle hanging a little behind and below the woven basket. The walls are a creamy, off-white color that make

Beethoven, music we admire through school bands, and even on classical radio. Music discussed in previous chapters we have most likely never heard or used. Chapter 15 we read of artists like Van Gogh and techniques like pointillism, which we know now as stippling. This is a technique I personally use in many of my art pieces. Both 14 and 15 steer further away from the religious culture and more how artists, and art concepts shaped

There are several different art movements, but the one that catches my attention is Pop Art. In the 1960’s, a group of younger artists invented a new American form of realism. Andy Warhol, Claes Oldenburg, and Roy Lichtenstein invented this movement. Andy Warhol was a highly successful magazine illustrator and graphic designer; Ed Ruscha was also a graphic designer, and James Rosenquist started his career as a billboard painter. Their background in the commercial art world trained them in the visual

What is diagnosis: Iron deficiency (ID) anemia List 3 differential diagnosis: Anemia of chronic disease — The hallmarks of this condition are the presence of a low serum iron, low iron binding capacity (transferrin), and a normal to increased serum ferritin concentration. The causes are usually related to the presence of chronic infection, (eg, pulmonary tuberculosis), inflammation (eg, active rheumatoid arthritis), or malignancy (eg, stage IIIB Hodgkin lymphoma).

Global warming is caused by an effect called the greenhouse effect. Gases like Nitrous Oxide, Water Vapour, Carbon Dioxide, and Methane are released into the atmosphere by human industries and are forming a blanket around the earth. When sunlight enters the atmosphere it passes through the atmosphere as ultraviolet and visible light. (Ultraviolet meaning of electromagnetic radiation, having a wavelength shorter than that of the violet end of the visible spectrum but longer than that of X-rays - a

Every arrangement of words seems to be an understatement when mentioning the success and influence of Dante’s epic poem The Divine Comedy. “An allegory is a story, poem, or picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one” (Oxford Dictionary). The Divine Comedy has provided inspiration for a large body of Western Art. Originally published in the 14th century, his medieval poem written in the vernacular language of the people has been the material for

Yosl Bergner was a man with a passion for art and social awareness. At an early age, he moved from Austria to Poland, which was the first country to be invaded by Germany in the Second World War. Due to this unfortunate decision, he was witness to the horrific discrimination and abuse that plagued Jewish people, especially with the intensity of Germany's absolute hatred for the religious group come WW2. Being a Jew himself, he was also a sufferer of such tragedy from a very young age. As a result
