Module 3

1. Describe Color and it's effects on emotions. Use the appropriate vocabulary of color in your posting. Interpretations of color can be subjective, there are several color effects with universal meanings to them. Colors that are part of the red color spectrum are known as a warm color. These colors include red, orange, and yellow. Warm colors can make people feel warmth and comfort but, can also cause a feeling of anger and hostility.  Colors part of the Blue spectrum are known as cool colors. These colors include blue, purple, and green. These colors tend to make others feel calm but also cause a feeling of sadness depending on the way it is used.  Several Ancient cultures used to practice using colors as a way to heal but now, these colors are used in light therapy or colorology.  
2. What is a theoretical aspect of color that most intrigues/fascinates you? Why? Different colors have different effects on different people. For example, I love yellow. It's such light color, it just reminds me of elegance. It gives off good vibes for me but for someone else looking at the color, they could hate it. It can cause feelings of anger if used in certain ways. 
3. In the Color video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions? What had the biggest impact on me was when June Redfern interpreted colors. When she was visiting Venice she portrayed the colors as if she was in her own pieces.  Once she returned home, she looked at her practice painting and said that she thinks it looked better in Venice and blamed it on the different lighting. 
4. In the Feelings video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions? This videos biggest impact on me was when Fransisco Goyas' paintings were shown. He used dark colors for his work which made it obvious that he interpreted the world as this darkness. He probably tried to portray the way he felt through the French Revolution. His painting tends to relate to things with negative energy. He really knew how to get his emotions to speak in his paintings.

The Drawing of Michelangelo  Michelangelo made art for most of his life but most his drawings were destroyed.  He was a talented artist and his skills were more than just drawing skills. He took pride in his skills but, he also held himself to higher standards when it came to his art.  He made complex pieces that were very beautiful but he even had some unfinished sketches that were incredible as well. Leonardo da Vinci: The Mind of The Renaissance Leonardo da Vinci is known as the renaissance man, he was able to put scientific methods to his art and also music. He made expressive and beautiful artwork, and was able to make inventions that were known as ground breaking during the time. He was quick and keen to let his mind wander and make these discoveries. He is known as one of the best Italian painters of all time.  He was talented at many things such as; painting, sculpting, architect, and engineer. I found the videos kind of unpleasing and boring. They did go into depth and h

Module 15 - Guernica

1- Taking my first glance at The Guernica, it was really hard to understand what was even happening. This oil painting is considered to be a moral with many different tortuous images created in it.  There's many elements and principals tat were brought to this piece such as; line, shape, form, value, and movement.  Looking at this picture my eyes dart from one place to another. there is no one thing that draws the attention. 2- The Guernica was made in 1937 by Picasso. This piece was created around the Civil War time period which makes sense because it seems as if the painting was a testimony of war. 3-  The painting was create in a time filled with war, death, and a lot of chaos. Picasso uses symbolism to express this time period. The painting is crazy, it's filled with shapes and forms which make the people and animals. Looking at the faces that were created, it creates a horrifying feeling.  I took this as Picasso created these figures like this to relate to the people w

More Human than Human  I enjoyed this video and found it very interesting. This video shows how art from our past effects the world as we know it today. He seemed to really focus on art throughout many years. My favorite quote from this video was "We will see how us humans made art but also how art made us humans."  I also enjoyed when he started to converse about the way we view each other and how the brain effects the way we view ourselves.  He also said that the way we see art is not realistic, and mentioned that art we see of human bodies doesn't look the way we think it should/would. The Measure of All Things: Greek Art and Human Figure This video was also very interesting. It demonstrated greek art and how it went from displaying religious figures in the work to showing human figures it also points out that there was a shift to the people that were captured by the art. They were able to create figures of idealistic human figures. This art seemed to influence t
