My First Brush with an Art Museum Being a fairly artist person for my entire life‚ I feel like it is a little weird that I have never been to an ‘art museum’. I grew up with a very artist mother‚ who did a lot of carvings and even won prizes for some of her carvings‚ and I believe that artistic talent rubbed off on me as well. I have always had interest in art‚ and strived in high school where I was placed in advanced art‚ painting and drawing classes. These days‚ I have traded my pencils and

For my museum visit‚ I visited the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. I visited the museum on November seventh with my mom and my younger siblings. The first thing I go to see was their Cinco de Mayo installation. They had all of the elements represented in sand boxes with colored sand depicting images related to the elements on a huge alter. There were cards that you could fill out for a loved one who had passed on to put on the alter. This was one of my favorite part of visiting the museum. After the

Truth be told‚ I have been to The Ayala Museum before.

The Appleton Museum of Art Central Florida College April 6‚ 2012 The Appleton Museum is undeniably a treasured gem to the Central Florida area. Many residents to the region are unaware of the history located right in their backyards. I’ve lived in the area my entire life and never had any knowledge of this incredible gallery. When I caught wind of the assignment‚ my initial thought was that I was going to have to go visit an old‚ beat up building that displays some prints that great artists

Walter Podbielski Professor Harris HUMN 420 Week 3 assignment 01/26/08 For week 3 assignment I chose the Van Gough painting and the corresponding poem “The StarryNight” by Anne Sexton. The poem references death rather frequentlyand I think that night in some way goes hand in hand with death. In contrast morning and daylight give way to life‚ the flowers opening up to the sun’s warmth and birds awaking; the day begins. The painting shows a town at night‚ which is asleep‚ quiet and peaceful. During

Edward Hopper’s painting “Office at Night” creates a psychological puzzle in the viewers mind. It appears as if the man is the boss of the woman‚ who seems to be his secretary. The way the man and woman are both positioned in the picture suggests that either the woman has asked the man and question and she is waiting for a response‚ she is expecting him to give her a new order‚ or she is standing by just to see what he will say or do next. Either way many viewers will interpret their actions differently

The two artists‚ Picasso and Velazquez‚ both painted a painting called Las Meninas. They have some similarities and differences‚ but each artists were portraying something different. Also every painter has a motivation. They can be the same motivation or another motivation for an artwork. In Velazquez’s artwork‚ he was portraying the attendants doing hard work for the little princess. There were many more attendants in the painting than anyone else. Also he uses realism to show the real life of

“A Sunday on La Grande Jatte” had a style that‚ once I took a closer look‚ surprised me somewhat. The painting seems to be made with many dots. It’s very impressive that the artist took the time and had the talent to use dots in such a way. Of course‚ it may have been the type of brush he used‚ or it is a painting technique that I do not yet know‚ but it certainly adds to the feel of the painting. I was also curious about the border of the painting. Rather than not have a border or having a simple
