I like the way this paint is on the canvas, but I don't like the way the people look on this picture. The baby and the mother in the painting reminds me of Mary and Jesus. This painting has a lot of things that are great , but I would not take it home because it is to bland for me, there is not a lot of action going on in the painting.
This was my favorite piece of artwork. This piece is my favorite because it reminds me of the baby Jesus. I also like how the paint is thick. I also like the detail of the people in the picture. It seems like it is the paint on the painting is very thick and it is there is a lot of shadow to bring out the dimensions in the painting.

I love this architeture


I like this building it is very abstract, and it would catch your eye if you passed it. It makes you want to go inside, and it is very different from any other building that you may see on an everyday basis.

Human behavior


I think that this picture of anger is very artistic and it shows natural human behavior. This picture is very unique because it is not just a plain picture, and it shows the most important physical part of anger.

This artwork that shows human nature

This picture shows things that most people do on a normal bases and having good hygiene is part of human nature.

This artwork shows human condition


I believe that this image shows the struggles that many people go through each day. Many people in the U.S. take for granite the homes, clothes, and the food that we have in this country. Kids in other country do not other countries do not have the same privileges that we have as young Americans.

This artwork shows human struggle

I believe that this artwork has shown the struggles that African Americans had to go through when they were first brought to this country. The artwork shows that they are not happy because they show no happy emotions in their faces. The picture shows struggles and hard times.

My 1st Cathrsist

When I like to relieve stress I like to workout. I like to lift weights and run. It relieves built up stress from my studies, relationships with different people, and other issues in life. This catharsis is healthy for me mentally and physically.

This music is a work of art

This video is very artistic because it is not like any music video that you have seen on any television. The sketches are very detailed and they have great shading to make them look more realistic as if the person was on the television himself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xW86DTpWWpM

World Peace Diorama


This diorama shows that the world is still not perfect, and that there are still people in the world who hate other people because they do not look like them , or they do not believe in the same things that they believe in.

Litter Diorama


This Diorama about litter was very creative, and I also agree with the message that the diorama was presenting.

Invisible Children Diorama


I learned that there are children that are getting taken out of their homes to fight in wars in Africa.

Football Diorama


This diorama made me think about football, and it made me feel excited and upset at the same time because the football season ended.
