Assignment #1

1) I believe that we make art all the time. Drawings, paintings, sculptures: these are the main focusses when we think of art. I think that we make art everyday, sketching during class, singing in the shower, taking pictures and uploading them on facebook, these are all ways that we create art on an everyday basis. My favorite type of art is photographs. I love big framed photos of football and baseball stadiums. I also really like the photographs taken in the low country and at the beach.

2) I used to take art in an art studio when I was 11. We made drawings, water paintings, and stained glass portraits.

3) It has been a while since I have been to an art museum. I don't know that I have ever been in an art museum. I was 12 the last time I was in an art studio, however I took an arte 101 class my freshman semester so that has to count for something.

4) I have been to several plays at the Kroger Center. We took a field trip in high school to see the Phantom of the Oprah and it is one of my favorite plays of all time. Unfortunately I am not a big dancer, I would love to learn though.

5) I believe I learn the most when it is hands on learning. I hate sitting in a lecture hall listening to a boring lecture, when I could be gaining experience with hands on learning.

6) I am taking this class because it is a fine arts elective for the Physical Education major. I also really appreciate artwork.

7) I appreciate good artwork, and when I see a painting that the illustrator has put a lot of time and effort into the art, it does move me and makes me feel proud for the illustrator, not knowing him personally.

8) I love listening to old inspiring speeches by coaches. I am a PE major so I really can appreciate a good pep talk or inspiring speech right before a big game. Also music inspires me. I like to listen to music while I workout, do homework, pretty much all the time.

9) Art can be whatever we want it to be. Paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs, television, music movies, buildings. Art is everywhere.

10) Yes! I consider all of these art. Each one of these take time to perfect and there are several different things that go into making a great movie, tv show, or video game.

11) I think we all have different opinions on "good" art. For me personally, I don't think Picasso is good art, but to someone else it might be the best there is.

12) My friends and I have similar but different taste in music. We all like most of the same artist and songs,  but we do differ on some things. For me, I hate screamo music, and they like some of that. I like country and rap, and they don't like most of that. But we all have different interest and we compromise on most music.

13) I think Toy Story 3 was the best movie of 2010. The best movie of all time is Top Gun!

14) I'm not really sure what an art film is. Maybe it is any movie. I believe that movies are all art so that makes every movie an art film/

15) Im not sure I understand this question. The song on my Ipod right now "Right Above It" - Lil Wayne.
