Module #3

1. Describe Color and it's effects on emotions. Use the appropriate vocabulary of color in your posting.
 Color has a surprising effect on emotions . The video "Color" illustrates this idea in two different ways, first being how every different color is used to describe the feel of the place and gives individuals in the painting life and feeling as if there expressing there own emotions. Secondly would be its ability cause emotion in real people. Different lighting, shades and intensity of different colors creates emotions in the viewers of that art piece. Seeing the differences in the colors presented can promote different feelings such as sadness,pleasure,pain, sorrow, happiness, joy, guilt, love and many more just based on the way it is presented.

2. What is a theoretical aspect of color that most intrigues/fascinates you? Why?
The aspect of color that most intrigues me is the use of the reflection of color onto other objects, as in the "Color" video where the painter of "Titian's Assumption of the Virgin" was the first to use this technique and it gave his art piece a whole new level. I like these because it is said that color is "the most powerful artistic element" and also "the most difficult to control", i feel as by doing this it push paintings closer to real life that ever before and gave a greater intensity and dept to it.

3. In the Color video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions?
My biggest impact was the use of different shades, intensity and aspects of a color to truly create a beautiful painting with emotions. The painting "Titian's Assumption of the Virgin" is basically a red painting, this was not apparent to me until it was pointed out by the female in the film. A variety of red paints was used symbolizing different emotions, class status, intentions and even divinity.  Its impact on me truly comes from the idea that colors even a single one if used in a correct manner can give and describe emotions to me and every contrast of a different color or even the same one gives feeling and emotion, such as in the bright white swirling painted lights behind individuals in the video and how it played off the red and gave me emotions of peace and divinity. 

4. In the Feelings video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions?
My impact relating back to the "Feelings" video on emotions is the wide array of used colors can have in describing emotions to a viewer. The two artist talked about in that video is though having greatly different styles, used there use of color to talk about either the darkest part of humanity and what horrors we could commit,experience, deserved and fear or, it could describe what we could be, are currently, wanting to be, going to be, or suppose to be in a positive manner. This is amazing because these emotions not only in painting but on the viewer can be achieved with the correct use of color both bright and dark.

Project #1: Elements and Principles Slideshow Reflection

Doing this assignments was very challenging for me, the only easy part to this assignment was creating my Photobucket account, which was as simple as it get. The assignment on the other hand was hard with its fourteen different concepts of art this was so challenging that I still don't think I completed it very well. Starting off my assignment I first read the pages in the book to gain a better understanding of the elements and principals I was to take pictures of. After which came the first difficult task for which was to find real world inspiration that relate to my topic. Taking pictures was like a day and a half process constantly deleting, re-taking and posting over and over again, after which it was just a matter of trying to accurately put the slideshow together, which was also difficult. This assignment showed me that I struggle with understanding art concepts in my own way. Album http://s1383.photobucket.com/user/alkatek/library/Mobile%20Uploads/Elements%20and%20Princ...

Project #2 Art Gallery Visit #1

The two art pieces that made an impact on me from my visit to the Albright Knox are as followed in this order " The Marvelous Sauce" by Jenhan Geogres Vibert in 1890, done with Oil on wood panel, the second piece was "Tempest in Red" Sandra cinto in 1969, done with acrylic and permanent pen on canvas. The piece it made an impact on me because I found it so funny and full of life, unlike all the other art pieces i found that day this one made me smile as soon as I saw it and looking at these characters made me wonder what is in that sauce. The second piece on the other hand simply garbbed my attention for its visual beauty, its use of lines pull me in and had me lost captivated, reminding me of a very intense sea storm. Art pieces I feel the most connected with are as follows "Carnival of Harlequin" by Joan Miro in 1925, done with Oil on Canvas, and the second piece " Twirling Hands" by James Drake in 1996, done w...
