webloge assignment # 3

My youtube video talks about Edward Hopper. It is an interview with ( Franklin Kelly ) which is from the National Gallery of Art. The youtube video is named "Edward Hopper's New York (NGA). The introduction of the video starts with pictures of Edward Hopper. After that the guest talks about Edward Hopper and his childhood and where he was born and where he lived. After that he gives examples of and subject Edward Hopper was successful with it and during that time showed some pictures of his work. Also the video turned to Edeard Hopper live and where he speand it. After talking about his life he began to talk about Edward Hopper's work and what kind of scenes he liked to draw. After that he spoke quickly about three parts that are when he liked to draw, what is unusual in his painting and how he catch the senes. After that he explained and showed some interesting pictures of Edward Hopper. After that he talk about his painting and how it was exciting and how it affected the public. After that he talk about another painting that Edward Hopper influned. In the end of the video he talk about the most famous artwork of Edward Hopper.

In my opinoin of the youtube video. It is a very organazed video and also it is in order. It starts from the artist's background and ends with the most famous artist's artwork.Also it gives alot of paintings and pictures of the artist. It gives alot of information from an experienced person, so you can make sure all the information about the artist is cerainly correct. Also the video focuses on th most improtant thing about the artist and passes quickly to the leaser important. So you can say every thing in the video is improtant. Also the video expains clearly why and how the artist is unusual and why he is famous and also explain with examples to make it easy to understand. The style of showing the video (( starts with the artist, painting,than goes to the interview; after that back again to the interview)) make it king of easy and perfect way to show the video.

weblog assignmant 2

I am going to describe a picture by EDWARD HOPPER . The picture name is "office at night ". In this picture I see a man sit in his office at night and keep on the the office light,and reading a paper in his hand. His office looks kind of messy. Next to the office owner is a woman. The woman looks at the man while he is reading the paper. The woman looks so thin. I think she is the secretary and her jab is to help the office owner. In front of the man's office there is another office. I think it is the woman's office. And in the woman office there is an old writing machine. I think the woman uses it to help the man with his work. From the picture's title (office at night) I think ther are working at night.

I understand a lot from this picture. The man sits in the office and read some thing in the paper, reads an important thing and while he reads the paper he orders from his secretary some thing; because of that, the woman in the picture is opening the file safe and taking out the man's order. Also because this an importane thing they are working at night. The picture makes me feel about the responsibility and how they are really working hard even during the night. In my opinoin this pisture is a very expressive picture,and i like it.

weblog assignment #1

I will describe picture C in the core boon in page 75. This picture looks like sad and quiet painting people in the painting look like all of them wear a black dresses, and they are very busy. Three children in the painting play in front of a big building has a big door. I think it looks like a religous building. In the background of the painting, I see houses and old trees or in another word dead trees. Also far away from this small town I see a mountain, a big mountain. Anyway i think it will help the people in this small town to get food from it. Also i think it looks like a very old town but how ever this small town has connected with the electricity because I see the electric cables connect with the houses and the big building in the town. In this painting i see the artist use of an exciting way and style to draw in, becaues the picture looks like it has three parts, The first one indvdes the down side of the painting. The second one looks like the next side in the picture. The last parts is the background. Finally I think it is a good and very exciting painting.
