The 1899 Painting by Vuilliard

In Vuilliard's 1899 painting you can see were he tryed to use balance when he put small and big objects on the left side of his painting and on the right side. On the left side in the back ground you can see a small table and a vase, and on the right side you see the lady sitting at the table with something in the background. In his painting one principle of design I do see is proportion. You might be able to see this in the color when he uses light colors to dark and big shapes and small shapes. you can also see repetition on the ladies jacket and on the walls thay keep the same shape and colors.

                                       Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire

What I learned is that Fred danced with Ginger because he was wanting to marry her and he didn't know how to ask her so he danced and sang to her to capture her attention. They also danced to the beat of the music so that they could do a good performance for there audience. Its smooth classic music and maybe its a love song. I think its trying to say that you can fall in love with someone when you look into there eyes.

   Assignment 1 - Blog: How "place" shapes our way of thinking

I grew up in Lexington, Kentucky in the projects for about four years and it was in the rural area like around the city.Then in 1998 I moved into a trailer on a street called newtown pike. I had lived there for about nine years and I was about twelve years old. Then I moved to Denver Colorado with my dad,stepmother and two brothers. The apartments that I lived in was far from the city and close to my school. There were lots of buildings, and I remember there was this big opened land were some construction people were beginning to build a park. when it was done it looked really nice. While I lived in Denver there was this place called Golden Colorado while passing through there it had some houses and buildings it was like a town. My dad had to work there and he helped build a bridge. It seemed as if there was always construction going on.
