This was made to protest the Vietnam war. He used photographs of his own experience as a veteran to make this. This was created in 1973. Mia suarez]]> 2022-06-01 20:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2207993358 mdoucette12 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2207998283 The meaning of this picture is finding yourself in a precarious situation. The proverb says, “He who rides a tiger is afraid to dismount." A tiger can't get at you if you're riding him. but of course that's a helluva place to be caught in. Mason Doucette]]> 2022-06-01 20:24:31 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2207998283 hchow1 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2207998693 In this work you can see soldiers walking through a battle field carrying a tarp. And it is assumed that in that tarp there is a body of one of their fallen comrades, who died in the fight. And because there seems to be dirt and brown/grey colors I can assume it's because the battle is still going on, or it has just ended. With the artist behind the painting being Burdell Moody in 1967. With the reasoning behind making this painting it was that it was created for the Vietnam Combat Artists Program. and it was a program where artistic soldiers drew art to make records for the war.

Also looks like the Americans got ambushed and are asking for help. Many are hurt and need medical attention.

This painting can be interpreted as the sulking gloom that a soilder may feel after losing on of their partners to war. -Kayla Young ]]> 2022-06-01 20:27:58 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208000526 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208001591 James pollack was given a paper to walk around give a description of  his experience in Vietnam War.

The meaning of this art work was a way of how the soldiers saw war and blum wanted to make us feel how they felt and think about how they felt standing there not knowing if someone is watching them and being in danger it makes you feel nervous for them. ]]> 2022-06-01 20:30:01 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208001859 gjimenez616 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208002239 In this old eroded painting by Burdell Moody  I see five of what seem to be soldiers four of which carrying the body of what looks to be a sixth man possibly dead or wounded on a piece of cloth or tarp in a dirty, smokey war destroyed terrain or landscape. I believe they're on their way back from a battle that they possibly won or lost that is yet to be clear and I think it shows how they lost men along the way and so here I think they're carrying a friend back who like I said could be dead or wounded back to a basecamp but to a betterplace then there at none the less. I think this painting shows how terrible, destructive but still beautiful war can be, because although these men have just been in a battle or battles that they will never forget and seen and lived some of the the worst things possible they are still fought for what they believe in and some were killed in action but not they weren't loss without defending their beliefs and their country. It's a beautiful piece it really is.]]> 2022-06-01 20:30:37 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208002239 emorado1 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208002574 This picture shows just how active the war of Vietnam was. When you look at this picture you'll notice a lot of red is coving the picture. Red symbolizes evil. This shows that the war was bloody and brutal. I notice that the men behind the first guy and with their eyes wide open and crouching in alert. This shows that the soldiers needed to be wake for any ambushes or attacks that could happenen any second. I also notcie the first guy on the phone. He is probably the commander right there and is calling for back up or for a bombing on the ambush. ]]> 2022-06-01 20:31:08 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208002574 kvelasco21 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208002638 This painting depicts the veteran of the Vietnam War and his struggle for honor, dignity and lifesaving care in America. Poisoned by Agent Orange and suffering mightily from PTSD, he kneels before his Flag and the names of his fallen Brothers in Arms to appeal for help and recognition. Although it cannot be seen from the outside, he is dying from the wounds he received there ¨I was killed in Vietnam, I just havent died yet¨ So many feel their suffering and service has been all but forgotten as the Country attempts to turn the page on this difficult and controversial period in American military history.

The one in the back is looking away while the one in front seems to be looking at the kid, the kid is down on the ground laying down, it seems like the kid is looking back at the soldier scared. What I also notice is that the sky seems blue and clear not dark and bloody. This shows how dark it could be even in clear skies.

There are some choppers coming to pick them up. There is a soldier with an AR-15 in his right hand and the "dead soldier's" hand in his left hand.There is a dead body of a soldier on the bottom right of this painting. The soldiers seem to be in a jungle of some sort.

Blum created his work Attack at Twilight in 1966 while in Hawaii and was inspired by his first view of a burning hut or “hooch".Around the huts the sky appears to be daylight and baby blue, but as the sky draws away from the hut shades of red are blended into the blues. The use of red can symbolize the violent destruction taking place in the distance. Blum put more detail in the soldier in the foreground than he did with the huts in the background, this creates a positive and negative space that adds depth to the painting. The burning trees and hut look like they’re being swept up into the sky from the brush strokes Blum used which generates the appearance of movement in this painting.

You'll notice that the body only has its upper half of his body. This represents how awful the war was and how badly one can get hurt. This painting seems like it was not finished but if this was Robert's final product then he incorporated negative space around the lower body. He made this painting look powerful.]]> 2022-06-01 20:40:18 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208009053 aambriz111 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208009608 From the title of this painting by Ronald A. Wilson I think the painting was inspired by having to face the fact they had to kill other people that most likely had families and children at home. In the painting the solider on the left looks distressed or shocked to see the body of the dead child. The painting gives the feeling of grieving or guilt over taking the life of a child that hadn't even experienced the real world yet. anthony ambriz]]> 2022-06-01 20:40:56 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208009608 jgonzales88 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208009798 In this picture i see a guy who has been hurt and his losing his life as many soldiers lost their lives during the war . I think the art represents what the Soldiers had to see on a daily basis during the conditions of Vietnam war as many of them were lucky not to lose their life . i think the artist painted this because he saw many of the wounded soldiers during his time in war and wanted to show the world what they had to go through .

In this painting, there are 4 soldiers going thru a waist deep swamp while on guard. The painting seems to have 2 main colors which are blue and green probably used to show the camouflage of the soldiers into the environment. Roger Blum placed the soldiers in the background and having the foliage in the foreground drape around the border of the painting so that the audience could feel as though they are apart of the painting and witnessing what's happening. In another perspective it can be seen as if the soldiers are unaware of their surroundings and not know they're being watched. Blum probably wanted to capture 1 of the many feelings during the war such as feeling of being vulnerable in a way.

It was made with a lithograph and a body print. What I see is that there is someone or something that is wrapped in the American flag and that the only thing colored is the flag while the other is black and white, I believe this is to make the flag stand out more than the black and white. The flag is colored to show that the attention is supposed to be on the flag rather than the other one. Again I see the colors on the flag to be bold and very flat.]]> 2022-06-01 20:53:21 UTC https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2208019397 asolache11 https://padlet.com/oxnardunion/ku6jkh0gajgjtda2/wish/2209413502 This piece was created in 1970, it shows a man and his grandmother.
