The painting is oil on canvas and contains an extensive amount of contrast. For example, the bright vermillion blanket against the dull eggshell colored door. The disparity between the colors used is prominent. Additionally, the fusion of ornate patterns and simplistic solids is evident. The tablecloth is a geometric mixture of cream and periwinkle.
Dale piece the Persian ceiling is a beautiful piece the bright colors and the unusually shaped objects are just breath taking some pieces where flattened out and many of the shapes resemble jellyfish and other sea animals and it’s so amazing because it’s all glass nothing else. The glass used in the Persian are small, dense, and rare core-formed vessels that appeared during 1500B.C. in Egypt and again in 1300B.C. in Mesopotamia. Another pieces that I admire is the sculpture honoring Harriet Wyche. The sculpture is made of rose-colored Polyvitro, a material that Chihuly Studio creates by casting a special formula of polymer resins and dyes using molds formed from large “chunks” of glass. The Polyvitro elements are crystal-like in shape, and individual masses are attached to a central armature of powerful-coated, exterior-grade stainless steel to create a tower that is over eight feet tall.
They break artistic objects into overlapping planes, geometric shapes, and zigzag lines. Art and culture surrounding of that period was predominantly focused on the portrayal of emotions through distorting from and color (Expressionism), reflects all artistic
Drawing inferences is like “reading between the lines.” Students do this by using their prior knowledge and the information that is provided. Students make inferences without even realizing that’s what they’re doing. For example, when I have read a book I thought well he/she should have ended like this or that, that’s because I drew on inferences and already was thinking of some outcomes of the story. This is a way to make sure all students are understanding, share ideas that some may not have noticed.
Terracotta calyx-krater (mixing bowl) is a vase attributed to the Konnakis Group. The vase dates back to the late classical period between 350-325 BC.

Throughout this semester as a class we have gone over many different terminology, seen many artists from all different countries and time periods. We have also learned about different kinds of art and media that the Artist work with. Over the entire semester I have gained a greater appreciation and understanding for art. Taking all of the new information that I learned this semester I choose three pieces of artwork from the St. Louis Art Museum. Two are similar to each other and the other is very different.

The items in this piece of art look lonely and they are all isolated from each other. Another similarity that these pieces have in common are that the artist tent to use darker colors in the items that are not the main focus and they use a lighter color on the items that are meant to have the

Greatly influenced by the New York Abstract Expressionist’s work in the 1940s and 1950s, they adopted several techniques used by the Expressionist artists, such as gestural brushwork and bold use of color, and applied it to realistic subject matter (Zilczer.) A key difference in the Figurative Group’s work was their rejection of total abstraction and acceptance of the figural and representational. They often placed their subjects in specific arrangements, more similar to a still life, than that of a realistic moment as Wonner does with the nude woman surrounded by mirror, skull, table, and
The medium used is olive greenish to turquoise in color wish some caramel brown color flowing throughout. While the outside of the sculpture appears to be very ridged the inside of it looks very smooth and almost fluid like. Then there are three women standing
Stories through the ages have baffled and mystified much of human curiosity by learning, teaching, and expressing a sundry of circumstances, which have carried over to their descendants. Creating rich images of lessons, values, and appreciation, novels has engineered a future that conveyed critical rationale to assist them in their time of despondency. Throughout allegories such as “ The Necklace” by Guy de Maupassant, and “ The Scarlet Ibis” by James Hurst, they explain and shared the habitual but influential theme, which is, self-regard often leads to idiocy, or rather pride is a calamitous force in your life. Within “The Scarlet Ibis” lies a profound message told by the main character, who is unknown, through the actions of his disabled
Greek Pottery is very diverse. It can provide some valuable and distinct vase shapes that can vary from each other and is some of the oldest and most diverse representations of the cultural beliefs and practices of the ancient Greeks. Patterns can represent symbolic and meaningful things about one’s culture. In this instance, it’s the Greeks. Some of the patterns that I have included in my Pottery is fishes, olives, an olive branch, masks, and a symbolic pattern.
Surrealistic art was major during the 1920s and 1930s. Surrealism was a movement on trying to merge the gap between dreams, reality, and a super reality ( Surrealism ). Surrealistic art was about interpreting one's dreams into a visual for everyone to understand. Making something to show people the feelings, struggles, and interests in life.
Surrealism was a cultural movement that began in the 1910s, and is best known for its visual artworks and writings. The artworks are almost all metaphysical or highly abstract, with artists merging reality with imagination or fantasy into an art piece. 3.”The Song Of Love” Paris, June-July 1914 Oil on canvas 28 3/4 x 23 3/8" (73 x 59.1 cm)
