Her hair is in Havana twist. I choose this picture because this image inspires me to change up my style. I always want to try new things to see if it fits me or my personality. I guess this image would say that I am a curious induvial, even if someone tells me something. I would have to see and experience anything on my own.

If I could find who did this anime version of "Number 5" (yes that's her code name in the show) from Kids Next Door I will post it, but I couldn't. I choose this picture to post because I always find it interesting different creative versions of cartoons. In the show they're kids no older than 14. However in this picture, the character is clearly a young adult. I find it awesome to see perspectives of people think the characters will age or look in the future. This image takes me back as a kid watching this for the first time, it gives me a strong feel of nostalgia. I also find myself relating to her because of our personality and race.]]> 2019-01-14 16:54:01 UTC https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/320394476 favorite artwork from the readings 1/23/19 cassandrabrown885 https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/323543086  Luks, G (1925) Boy with Baseball Retrieved https://www.metmuseum.org/toah/works-of-art/54.10.2/

This seems to be the image that stuck out to me because it reminds me of my uncle in law. before his dad died sadly, he painted my uncle when he was a kid. The style of the painting relates and is very similar.

Another interpretation I gotten from this painting is Capitalism vs Communism. Religion vs Atheism too.

Their figure shows how the culture functions and their religious practices. One element I need to know is the origin to why it was created in the first place or just the entire culture.]]> 2019-01-30 14:59:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/325859918 2/5/19 Heels cassandrabrown885 https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/327801935 What I found interesting about this picture of the heels is the style of the heels. I have slightly bigger feet. So when I saw this picture it made me happy because I usually can not find nice heels such as theses when I shop around. These heels gives me a Cinderella feel, something a bride would wear in her fairytale wedding. Also I like fashion so this was a very interesting pick.]]> 2019-02-05 14:58:17 UTC https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/327801935 2/5/19 Outfit cassandrabrown885 https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/327819473 In this week's picture I found interesting is the fairy jumpsuit. I love the wings that is attached to the pack. It givens me a fantasy feels. Something a superhero women would wear. I think this outfit is very sexy.

She was born on July 6, 1907 in Coyoacan, Mexico City and died on July 13, 1954. She was known for her surrealist style in her paintings. Where she worked at is unknown but her job was being a painter. The form of the Self Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird is painting and the medium is oil on canvas. The subject matter of this painting is herself since it is a self portrait. One element of art I notice that is used is directional lines . For example it is used in the direction of the leaves in the steams. You look closely it
I plan on giving background of her life or maybe the painting itself before I start talking about the elements of art the painting presented

He was born on April 15, 1452 in Anchiano, Italy. He died on May 2, 1519, in Chateau du Clos Luce, Amboise, France. In his early years, he received no formal education beyond basic reading, writing and math. However, he spent his earlier working life in the service of Ludovico il Moro in Milan. In my essay I plan on discussing the backstory of the famous Mona Lisa painting and then going into detail about the elements of art I notice in the painting as mush as I can. The medium use in the painting is ‎oil on a wood canvas. The subject matter is portrait of Mona Lisa. The style of the painting is the early Renaissance era. One formal element use in the painting is organic shapes, one example of how it is used is in the background the mountains has some sort of organic shape to it.

I do not read books or comics very often which makes this book so special. The book gives the audience backstory of the main character as well as talking about her adventures with her friends. Max is also not a ordinary person because she has wings and special powers.

I choose computer games as theme because I found computer games to be fun. I enjoy being able to slip into a world where anything is possible, or where you get to live vicariously through a character. I find it relaxing also. I choose this theme because everything we do is surrounding technology. Most assignments I had since I been in college for my major is creating games so I figured why not have one of my themes be about computer gaming.]]> 2019-03-13 18:15:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/341024951 3/13/19 cassandrabrown885 https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/341034174 I found this theme to be exciting for me being that I have a industrial piercing which is showed in this picture. The after care of any piercing is exhausting part of the healing process because you have to be patient and check on your ear a couple of times a day. The theme is of course the healing process of the industrial piercing.

One theme I am considering for my final project is "Rock or alternative bands". The theme interests me because I always loved listening to rock but I noticed that most parents hate them. With that being said I want to explore why and the history of rock bands.  Including them in my exhibition would help me in my argument to why more people should be open to listening to rock music and to have a open mind to the topics they sing about compared to rap.]]> 2019-03-25 13:14:47 UTC https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/344799762 3/25/19 cassandrabrown885 https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/344810264 Image retrieved from https://bullshit.ist/everything-youve-ever-wanted-to-know-about-my-abortion-4c78e7ee0c37

 Another theme I am considering for my final project is the topic of  "Abortion". The theme interests me because of my experience and the fact that i understand both sides of the argument. Including this in my exhibition would help me to free write about controversial topics like this helps me learn and not judge others on their choices.

I choose this picture to represent cultural music and different genres. So many people exclude different genres because it is not as popular as others. The picture is a physical painting I believe. I could not find any other information on this painting, however, I can give 1-3 points on why this picture is interesting. I believe music is a universal language shared with people around the world. Music has a way of identifying cities, heritage, historical events, etc. Music is a means to express culture in a way others can understand.

What makes her unique is her clothing style and what she does to keep herself and her family in the public eye. Every time she does something or speaks out, it seems as if the world stops to cater to her. Another thing that is unique about Kim Kardashian is her business sense, she definitely knows how to market herself. For example, she creates her our brand of clothes, makeup, and shoes which a lot of women want to buy. Another aspect is, when something great happens to a celebrity or just in general and it starts to trend. She figures out ways t release something about her, her brand or her family, which steals the spotlight from the previous person. I like the fact and I find it funny that she gets people talking about her good or bad. Well, I would go there with my thought on how Kim Kardashian and Ray J are the most memorable moment of Kim Kardashian, but I am not sure if that is appropriate. So my next memorable moment of Kim Kardashian is when she, Kanye West and Taylor Swift was going back and forth on twitter and Kim Kardashian aired out text messages, recording, She came with receipts.

This image would be important to include because through the representation of art it shows the viewer how music can be expressed and how it can be expressed. Although I could not find a backstory of the meaning of the picture, I can use my interpretation a what I learned in the course to look at details and to dig deeper than what is presented to us. Also because music is usually written with lyrics, it can connect us to other people and through words that's how we express ourselves as individuals.

Especially because we are now in the mist of spring/summer, the sun makes the sensory pop more. For example, around school is a garden of floors next to a place where people go to sit at. The first thing that captures my eye is the flowers. Looking at the different forms and shape of the flowers is beautiful because I am not just looking at one set of the same type of flowers it brings uniqueness. When you stare closer at the flower and how the sun hits the flower, I notice slight shading and color changes from the original color]]> 2019-04-15 16:26:13 UTC https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/351718267 4/15/19 cassandrabrown885 https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/351722266 So I find this topic very interesting because it affect a variety of different women. I feel like I can offer insight because I talked about this in another class on how media and society affect women self esteem and body imag . The media places stress on women to obtain and maintain the “ideal” body image which causes them to feel insecure about their bodies due to looking at media images daily. This provokes women to diet more because they feel more pressure to be slim. Society pays a significant amount of attention to body image, physical attractiveness, youthfulness, sexuality and appearance, “the minimum requirement for the sort of model who appears on advertising hoarding is a height of 5 ft 9 in a size 8 to 10” (Buckroyd 55). Compared to today, where these requirements have risen to a higher standard of being beautiful. Today's size of a perfect women is a size 0 to 3 and a height of 5'5 and up. When in all actuality “The media sets standards that create an idealized image of feminine beauty, which then become subconsciously etched in every woman’s mind” (Schneider 67). ]]> 2019-04-15 16:36:44 UTC https://padlet.com/cassandrabrown885/thjme5yk5lr7/wish/351722266
