Class #7

The First Picture Is Called "The Japanese Bridge" It Was Created/Made In The Year 1913 In Cleveland .It's Basically 101 Years Old. The Artist name is William Sommer & Its From The "Modernism" Era. I chose This Piece Of Art Because it is Extraordinary, It Is Simple But Eye Catching At The Same That. I Love How The Artist Took His Time To Create It, From The Shape Of The Bridge ,To The a Color Lake, & The House On Top Of The Hill. Everything Coordinate One Another. The Choice Of Colors Plays A Major Role On The Outcome Of The Art Piece .

The Second Piece Of Art That Caught My Attention Is The " Sun And Moon " By Robert Delaunay. It Was Created In Paris Between The Years 1912-1913 I'm Not Too Sure . I Chose It Because It's Similar To The First One ( The Japanese Bridge ) .. Although They're Not The Same Or From The Same Artists, But To Me The Colors Are Basically The Same. I See Red, Green, Yellow, Purple Etc. I Like The Fact That It's Just As Beautiful As The First One. It Reminds Me Of Calm Day, You Know Like Sort Of  Mellow, Not Too Cold Nor Too Hot Kind Of Day.

In My Opinion I Feel Like Both Artist Did A Great Job. It Doesn't Matter How An Artist Chooses To Do Their Work, Art Is A Form Of Expression And Relaxation. There Is No Wrong Or Right Way To Create Art. The Best To Do Is Let a Your Imagination Run Wild, Do Your Best & Whatever You Know Will Show At The End Of The Day . There's No Doubt That Both Artist Did A Great Job, They Took Their Time & They Are Both Beautiful .

Favorite Dish Project !!

One Of My  Favorite Dish To Make/Cook/Bake Is Patties. Favoritebly Haitian Patties. I Started Making Patties As Young As 7 Years Old. In Fact, The First a Time I Tried Making Them, It Was A Total  Disasters. They Were So Bad To The Point That No One Wanted To Try Them Out. I've Had Other Patties Such As Jamaican Beef Patties,However, Haitain Patties Are On Top Of The List For Me. It's From My Culture, I Enjoy Making It But Most Importantly I Love Eating It. It's Been About 15 Years Since Ive  Been Making It, I Really Good At Making Patties & They Final Product Always Come Out Beautifully .

First Step : Mix The Water & The Seasonings Together In A Bowl

Step 2: Add The Flour To Water Mix It We'll

Step 2-A Mix It Untill It Looks Like Something Like This

Step 3(A) . Chopped The Onions Into Small Pieces As Well As The Egg(s)

Final Step: Is To Either Bake The Pattie(s) Or Fry It.

The Pattiies Should Come Out Looking Like This Depending On Either If It Was Baked Or Fried. I Chose To Bake Mine Because I Didn't Want To Deal With Oil & The Mess That Comes With It. It Took About an Hour And Half For Me Accomplished The Whole Project. It Was Fun, I Loved Doing It, It Was Relaxing .

Class #5 Part 3

I Was Born Into A Christian Family Ever Since I Was Little, As Young As Four Years Old My Mother Would Always Teach Me Or Tell Me To "Pray" Because In My Religion It's Believed That Prayers Changes Things & Make Miracles Happen. I Would Not Consider Praying A Skill But It Important To Me As Well As My Family.I've Been Praying For So Long That At This PointI Don't See It As A Skill But More Like A Part Of Me Or Who I Am. I'm Not Saying That I'm The Most Religious Person  Because There Are Times That I Don't Go To Church For A Long Amount Of Time But That Never Stopped Me From Thanking God For Protecting Me & For Continuously Blessing Me And Seeing Me Through. Praying Is A Time For Saying Thank You & Asking For Forgiveness. People Usually Get On Their Knees To Pray But I Don't Do That, I Rather Lay On My Bed & Before Sleep.  If I Had To Use A Material To Pray I Think That It'd Be The Bible & It Would Definitely Be In My Room Because That's Where I'm At Peace. I Don't Think That I'd Pray With People Simply Because I Wouldn't Be Able To Keep Focused . I Always Do Best Alone When It Comes To Things That Requires My Full Undivided Attention .

Class #5-Followup MOMA & Translation

This Is The Piece Of Art That I've Chosen To Do My 13 categories Content On , Simply Because It Really Caught My Eyes. It Actually Reminds Of An Episode Of Xena The Princess Warrior. In The Episode Xena Had To Go Save Grabriel From Hell. I'm Not Actually Into Dark Things But The Colors Pulled Me In, I'm A Color Lover, Anything Colorfully, I Want . The Artist's Choice Of Colors Stands Out Beautifully. I Don't Know, Maybe I'm Reading Too Much Into The Painting...In My Opinion The Redish Orange Color From The Top Left Corner & The Redish Yellow In The Center  Represents The Internal Fire " Forever Burning, Everlasting Fire " Basically "Hell". I Don't Believe Hell Exists But If It Does It's Not Somewhere Id Want To Be. The Dark Green From The Top & The Greyish Colors At The Bottom Maybe Represents The " Monsters". It's Dark, It's Scary But It's Hard Not To Take A Minute To Figure Out What It Is About. I'm Not Sure Who's The Artist Behind This Painting But I'd Love To Find Out What Was The Purpose For It & If There Was A Reason Why He/She Uses The Colors They Did. I Also Feel Like Maybe The Artist Was Going To Through A " Dark Stage" Or " Rough Time" Because Some Artist Used Art As A Way To Express What They Are Going Through, Mood, Emotion, Feels , Etc. Maybe That's Why This Artist Did. I Looks Like It Took A While To Create & I Also Love The Fact That It's Overlapping But A Good Sort Of Way, The Colors Goes Well Together Almost Like They Were Made For Each Other. This Painting Is Amazing & Its Breathe Taking.

Class# 4 Process Drawing !

This Is My Process Drawing. I Started With A Blank Piece Of Drawing Paper Taped To My kitchen Wall. From There I Put An Empty Glass Of Bottle , A Black Piece Of Clothe & Some Skull Looking Thing From Haiti. I Arranged The Materials On The Table And From There I Proceeded To Draw The Items With My Opposite Hand (In That Case My Left Hand).I'm Right Handed So I Drew The Drawing With My Left. I Wanted To Do Something Out My Element And My Comfort Zone & I Was Very Anxious To See What The Outcome Would Look Like.  It Wasn't Easy To Say The Least But It Was An Very Interesting Process. I Had To Take Mini Breaks Because My Left Hand Got Tired From Me Using It & Only It For So Long . It Took Me About An Hour and Half To Finish The Project. I Enjoyed Doing This Assignment, It Kept Me Calm & Focused . I'm Happy With The Final Product, Although It's Not Perfect But I Must Say That I Am Proud Of My Self & I Would Definitely Do It Again .
