Module 11

I chose the videos The Mystical North: Spanish Art from the 19th Century to the Present & Dada and Surrealism. I chose the first one because since my culture is Hispanic I found it interesting and wanted to learn more about Spanish art since this is my background. I then randomly selected Dada and Surrealism.
The key concepts I learned in the first video was about using dark colors to portray dark, gloomy images. In the second video I learned about artists using their artwork to get messages across and to demonstrate lessons.
These videos relate to the readings because they describe the concepts learned in the video and describe them in a deeper meaning.
Overall I liked the videos but after a while they became boring. They did not keep me as entertained as previous videos.

Module 4

My thoughts on creating a Value Scale are that I thought this project was creative, and cool. Before this class if someone were to ask me what a Value Scale was I would not be able to describe what that was. Now that I have created one I am able to explain the purpose of one, and what it can be used for. While creating the Color Wheel I was a bit challenged at first because I wasn't sure if I would make the colors correctly like it was shown in the video. After I had noticed that I did it correct, and it became fun to watch the colors blend together, and produce other colors.  The media that I enjoyed working with the most was the color wheel. This is because it was more hands on involving the paint, and brushes. I like working with paint, and painting things and although we were not instructed to paint a object or create a picture with it, it was still fun to put the colors together, and see what can be created from that.  In my opinion an important discovery that I had not

3rd art gallery visit

Al Mitsu 1944 Oil painting Jame Amos Porter 1957 Oil on Canvas Frida Kahlo 1945 These are all of the three of the inspired self-portrait pieces I have decided to include from the art gallery visit. All of these pieces were found virtually from the Google art project website. 1. Why did you select the inspiration pieces? I selected these inspiration pieces because I felt like these are exactly what self-portraits are supposed to look like. It is the person, and they are either doing something or just still. 2. Why did you select the media to create your self-portrait? I selected the media to create my self-portrait because I felt like it would be the best way to create the image of myself that I wanted to. 3.
