2- While making my photobucket slideshow I saw different elements in a bunch of the pictures I used. Kali's photobucket slideshow she used pictures of her backyard which was a really good idea. I think you can find more of the element in objects outside. Such as contrast and color. For all the pictures she chose for each element I thought went together and made sense. She used pictures that I would of used to describe each element as well. Jessica's photobucket I also thought her pictures matched with each element. She was nervous she was not going to be able to find the right pictures and I thought that as well.
3- Jessica's choice of pieces were different then mine. The ones she picked out were interesting and I see that more now looking at the pictures of them. The convergence by Jason Pollock looks really interesting and I didn't notice it as much as the other ones at the gallery. Kali's pictures she chose were very similar to mine. We both like the Polarity. We all thought the Wood Iron Rods looked like they were moving even though they weren't. I also really liked the stairs when you first walked in, I has to really watch walking down them because they were so filled with colors and stripes, it was very different.
4- Jessica chose the Triumph of the French Painting, which looks really interesting. It looks to me that there is a story behind it that people would like to know more about. It has a variety of colors to make the piece more alive. It also looks like there is emotion behind it as well. Kali chose the "Fog” by Susie Rosmarin. I thought this piece was really cool. I remember seeing it at the gallery and couldn't stop starring at it. So many of the pieces there really make you stop and stare for a while.
5. I think it is interesting to see what other classmates are interested in. Being an online class no one knows each other, so this gives us a opportunity to see what their like. I find it valuable to see how and what other people do for the projects. This is my first art class and a elective so I am basing off the directions not any examples. This assignment shows us what other peoples ideas are and we can learn from them.
6- Even though I did not have any classmates respond to my artwork, I feel this assignment helped me for my future assignments and projects.
