There are four prominent art and design elements that were utilized in this painting: lines, shapes, light and value, and color. The first element is directional lines. Directional lines are used to guide the viewers eye to the main piece of the painting. In this case, the lines starting from the top right of the painting are directional. They lead your eyes to the large boat, onward to the bottom, where there are animals boarding it. The lines are also very sharp. They outline the shapes in the painting, giving the shapes a clear border. The next element is shape. The shapes are at very sharp angles. The animals tail is not curvy, but a sequence of hard lines, making the illusion of a curve. The eyes of the men are sharp lines. This painting, by definition, uses geometric shapes. Geometric shapes are lines connecting the points in a closed chain. There are no variance of shapes. All the figures can be split into differing
This conceptual artist has taken basic elements of art such as lines and color and has created this amazing two dimensional artwork, Vertigo. In this artwork the artist uses regular lines, a rhythm of diagonal lines, and a slight tint of an orange in the background of the actual lines. The different directions, overlapping, and crossing of the lines, help imply the chaos and disorder the artist is trying to reveal through this painting.
Overall, the unity of the painting comes primarily from the visual elements. On the sliding scale from blandness to chaos, this piece falls in the center of the spectrum. The quadrilaterals and the swath of green keep the painting interesting, and the soothing colors and horizontal lines make sure it doesn’t become too chaotic. The quadrilaterals, horizontal and vertical lines, and the analogous color scheme are the primary visual elements that come together to give this piece a feeling of visual
The Focal Point of the painting would be the three people at the table but mainly the woman and man sitting across from each other. There is no unity or variety that appears in the artwork. The artwork is in proportion. There is no movement in the picture considering the people are sitting down at the table. There is no rhythm or pattern in the artwork that is involved.
The main focus of the painting is the architectural aspect. The scene is dominated by the main building and the large arched bridge that juts out in front of it. It is proportionally placed within the canvas. The width of the central façade makes up the central portion of the painting with the doorway being centered within the entire composition. The perspective of the painting, although not on axis, has the illusion of being balanced due to the centralized doorway and the aspect of the bridge being almost
Over the summer I traveled to Tennessee to see my cousins. The day we arrived, we visited Lake Winnie, an amusement park with tons of rides with a water park. It was a joyful day. That day I went on the first roller coaster I 've ever been on. While walking nervously up the steps to get into line with my cousin, I felt the adrenaline rushing through my body, and I felt very anxious. I smelled all of the amusement park food, and felt sick. The day was boiling hot, and when we buckled into the roller coaster, I heard the operator, who looked like he was sweating a river, say that this roller coaster was 62 years old. That just made me even more terrified. As we were waiting, and I was talking to my cousin, the operator suddenly pushed the button.
The Orlando Museum of Art, also known as OMA, is a hub of Central Florida when it comes to pulling in remarkable works of art for the public eye to pay patronage to. Today I visited such a place for the annual Antiques Vintage and Garden Show, which took place between February 19th through the 21st. Included in the price of a ticket was also admission to The OMA’s current exhibitions, which included Women of Vision: National Geographic Photographers and their other running exhibits, which contained an array of work, ranging from Pre-Columbian sculptures to more contemporary works of the 21st century. The specific exhibit which held my interest most was the Pre-Columbian, Mesoamerican gallery titled “A Trek from North to South”, which was organized by geographic locations in Latin America. Since my girlfriend, Illiana, bought me tickets to the show for a

When I was in the 2nd grade i went on the most intresting field trip. I was surprised that my parents paid a lot of money just so i can go to the Lincoln Memorial. I can not expressed how i was feeling at that age, i was so happy. I took my bestfriend Jack, he did not have to pay a single penny. Our school was on fall break so that is when we went so i spent my whole break with my best buddy. We left on a saturday and got at our destination about Sunday night. The Memorial was obviously closed when we got there but i just couldnt wait any longer to go see and learn. As a little kid we all had dreams and my dream was to become President one day. Monday morning we got up pretty early and went out to breakfast. The food in Washinton D.C is amazing i had this meat skillet with over easy eggs on the top. After we enjoyed our delicious breakfast we headed to the memorial. I couldnt believe my eyes when we got there.
In the book, Chicana Sexuality and Gender, Cultural Refiguring in Literature, Oral History, and Art by Debra Blake reveals the various experiences and perspectives many Chicanas endure growing up with the culturally symbolic female figures: La Malinche, La Llorona, Mexica goddess, and La Virgen de Guadalupe. Blake describes the multiple forms Chicanas refigure and reimagine these powerful figures that are originally used to confine and marginalize women by providing the oral history and insight of the working class and semi-professional Chicanas and Mexican Americans. Blake emphasizes how these female figures need to be preserved and redefined to dismantle the heterosexist and patriarchal narratives since they have a profound effect on the
