post #29 20th Century Artist: Pablo Picasso

This is one of Pablo Picasso's work of art. It is a portrait of what appears to be a person. What is different about it is the shape of the face, nose, and eyes. I have seen it before and I personally feel that Pablo Picasso  is a groundbreaking artist. Why? Well he showed an unusual version of a person. Normally people do not see others like this. He is displaying a person who may not have the same features as another. Also it could possibly tell someone that it is okay to be different. It doesn't matter how someone looks at another, long as they are comfortable with them self. The artist may have displayed a person looking in the mirror and seeing their reflection. There are a variety of reasons why Pablo Picasso is a groundbreaking artist. He is able to give us unique interpretations on his work of art.

As you can see there is a little innocent boy with a flower in his hand. He is staring at something far off in the distance. One of my old friend's uncle drew the original version. This inspired me to do a replica of the exact same version. What I notice with my artwork is that I can think of something random and make it my own. I am also able to look at someone else's work and try to do the same. You can see that above, no I'm not Pablo Picasso or Andy Warhol but, I can create a piece of work. My best drawings are those of nature and portraits.Sometimes I cannot produce what I feel quality work when I'm asked. When this happens I try my best to complete it. I can draw and write poetry when I'm alone.  This helps my brain to settle on any issue I want to make aware to others. I enjoy drawing and poetry especially when my world seems to at peace. In a way I can fall back on it whenever and wherever.

Post#27 FACEBOOK :)

  Facebook: Well what can I say? This is a website that I usually go on everyday or at least every other day. Some may ask: What do you do on Facebook? First I look at recent news and scroll down to see what my friends posted. After I do that I play Family Feud. I am in competition with my friends. I do not stay on this site for no more than two hours. I update my status by adding informative news or giving my opinion on something that is on my mind. Not only do I do that I upload photos of my friends and family. I get comments and also people who like the photos. This is part of my identity because I can keep up with others as well as my social life. People post online what makes them happy or sad. The struggle that they go through encourages me to make the best out of my life. Generally Facebook is known for catching up with classmates in college, or people from your job. Sadly teens and adults cannot use it properly. They feud each other and make rudely comments. Luckily I am not that kind of person.

Post # 26 David Alfaro Siqueiros Reflection

David Alfaro Siqueiros was telling the viewer that possibly his life had it's hard times. Everyone goes through something that could eventually make them weaker or stronger. In this artwork he is showing that the young lady is devastated. You can also see that the young lady has massive hands and knuckles. David Siqueiros exaggerated her hands for a reason, she must be powerful. I also believe that this artwork shows David's strength, he must have to take matters into his own hands before. What the work of art may tell is that he was frustrated at the time he created this. He took the time out to produce this work and you can tell.
