Georgia O’Keeffe Georgia O’Keefe paints wispy curved shapes and her use of thin paint and clear colours evokes feelings of mystical silence. Her work is very different to certain aspects of Anna Keay’s work- abstract shapes based on line, colour, light and dark masses, repetition, and some symmetry. It is however smooth and soft like Renoir when he paints his people but hers is no way near as detailed. ‘Red Poppy’ Oil on canvas, 1927 This painting gives a profound impact, mainly because we never look at something so insignificant in such great detail, as it is a large and vivid, persimmon-red shape which shows an extreme close-up of a poppy. I think the original of this piece is supposed to be smaller, but the viewer still sees the flower in a huge perspective because the angle and position from which the painting was created makes the viewer feel like they are very close to the painting anyway.
Browning over-exaggerates the features and beauty of the nature of England almost making them come alive with her use of personification. The poem is very descriptive and also plays on all the five senses. She shows the sense of taste with the use of the word ‘sweeter’ in line 12, ‘ Made sweeter for the step upon the grass’ and also line 20, ‘Fed full of noises by invisible streams,’ the sense of hearing is shown using the word ‘noises.’ Browning also used the repetition to give the reader a sense of continuity. She shows that nature is evergreen and will be omnipresent in this world. This can be seen with the repetition of words like ‘the’ and ‘and’.
I have an interest in Greek mythology, and I like to see how stories are brought to life through pictures. It is interesting to see how one interprets stories into to a visual form. I especially like the usage of color in this painting. My favorite part of the painting is the two angles. The way the blue wrap is entangled between the two angles shows how graceful the wind is that is bringing Venus to the shore.
The dead man is significant to Myop because a wild pink rose is growing his head. This flower is not like the other flower Myop had seen. Conclusion, flower is an appropriate tile for Alice Walker’s short story, because of the wild pink rose she
He starts talking about the flowers and how beautiful they are, and this makes Elisa feel beautiful and valued. A stranger is noticing her “place”, her hard work. When he offers to take the chrysanthemums out of the garden, off the farm, some place to grow, she is elated. “Beautiful” (690). “Oh beautiful” (690).
One of Tennyson's poems which contradicts this view is 'The Lotos-eaters and Choric Song'. Though the poem begins with a very active: 'Courage!' Which sets the poem up to be one filled with action, it very soon changes tone to highlight the appeal of the island which is one filled with idleness and of a slow nature; Tennyson paints a very idyllic picture of the island and its lifestyle 'sweet music here that softer falls, than petals from blown roses on the grass' His specific choice of diction 'sweet, softer, roses' all create an languid, sweet atmosphere. Roses themselves are often used as a symbol of perfection, thus it could be said Tennyson is suggesting the island represents perfection, lacking nothing therefore entirely contradicting the statement that nothing is gained by being passive. Caesura is used, adding pauses to contribute to the lazy feel and perhaps also to drag out the description of the isle; in terms of form there is considerably more time spent on the context of the isle compared to their lives away from it, again emphasising Tennyson's focus.
I like how the aesthetics and style of her work play with simulara as they are made to look like a sign or billboards advertisement. It is really interesting how she challenges the unrealistic social ideals we hold about self-identity, beauty and self-worth. The way how she expose them as mere simulacrum.The techniques she used , the colours of black and white and how she can make amazing design just using pictures and words is amazing. Kruger's works are direct and evoke an immediate response. Usually her style involves the cropping of a magazine or newspaper image enlarged in black and white.

Rachel Halliday “If we could paint your life and frame it, Like a picture on a wall, then we could all stop For a moment and stand staring in awe,” Connor Oberst *~*~* There is more to everything than what initially meets the eye. As we get more familiar with certain things, we come to realize that these seemingly simple items are more multifarious then what was first thought. For example, when you think of butterflies, the first thing that comes to mind is probably the colorful flutter of their tiny wings, but there is so much more than just the array of beautiful colors that these small creatures display. The same thing goes for us as human beings. In a sense, we are recognized and thought upon
