Visual elements help a lot when I am about to analyze a work of art. Lines play an important role in an art piece because it gives my eyes something to trace around to focus on a particular thing. Horizontal lines‚ vertical lines‚ and diagonal lines are the different types of lines that an artist uses in their paintings to convey different messages. Shapes gives a 2 dimensional effect to a painting where as mass gives a 3 dimensional effect. Those effects give us an object to identify the painting

The argument from design is an analogy and works by comparing the universe to an object. An example of the comparison would be to say the world resembles a car. All cars have creators‚ therefore‚ the world has to have a creator‚ and that must be God. The argument concludes by saying by observing the world we can gather evidence that the intelligence of a human that creates a car‚ bike or some other item resembles‚ in a less perfect form‚ God. However‚ Hume thinks this argument fails. Hume does not

QUESTION PRESENTED Whether Elmwood’s artistic work qualifies as a “work of visual art” and whether she was the author of said work under the Visual Artist’s Rights Act of 1990 (VARA); if these elements are met‚ the issue needs to be addressed of whether she has a right to recover for damages in regards to the destruction of her “work of visual art”. Congress enacted VARA in order to “protect… both the reputations of certain visual artists and the works of art they create.” H.R. Rep No. 101-514‚ 101st Cong

components of Thomas Aquinas’ cosmological argument for the existence of God are the argument from first motion‚ the argument from first cause‚ the argument from degrees‚ and the argument from the contingent. The argument from first motion is practically the thought that because things move in the universe and something else caused those things to move‚ then there must be an initial mover—that initial mover is God (Vaughn 64-65). Aquinas’ second argument is that from first-cause‚ this is basically

Canterbury1‚ the ontological argument was born in the early 1100’s. The ontological point of view‚ according to St. Anselm‚ describes God as “a being than which no greater can be conceived”.2 St. Anselm concluded that if such being failed to exist‚ another even greater being could be conceived that does exist. This argument would be illogical‚ as no being can be greater than the greatest being. Therefore God must exist. As you can see‚ St. Anselm’s ontological argument attempts to prove the existence

makes up life. One of the most critical arguments that claim that there must be a God is the Kalem Cosmological argument‚ which uses the universe’s mere existence or the beginning of the universe’s existence to claim that whatever has a beginning‚ must have a cause‚ insinuating that the cause of the universe’s beginning is in theory‚ God. Though with creative intellect in further questioning it’s impossible for one not to question that the Cosmological argument may be correct in theory‚ but does the

Outline the cosmological argument for the existence of God (21) The Cosmological argument is an argument that attempts to prove the existence of God‚ it is also known as the causation argument which argues that as all events require a cause‚ if the universe is an event it must have a cause and that cause is God. The argument is a posteriori because its based on evidence that already exists in the universe. The cosmological argument is also inductive because the conclusion is what

St Thomas Aquinas version of The Cosmological Argument Aquinas developed the five ways to prove the existence of God. He based his arguments on what could be observed‚ his observations included that the universe moves and changes. From his observations he reached conclusions about the existence of God. However‚ Aquinas did actually accept the fact that he may not prove that the cause of the universe is the God of classical theism. He also did not accept infinity because he believed that there had
