1. What were you expectations for this course and where they met?My expectations were that I would be looking at A LOT of different pictures and learning about all the different genre's.
2. Now that you've been through this course, What is art? How would you define it now compared to your intial posting? From the first class discussion I defined art as "something that comes from the soul. People will connect with it on whether or not it "speaks" to them. Art is as diverse as the human body. There is no right or wrong." I still agree with my original definition. I feel even more strongly now that it is something that comes from deep inside. The artists we learned about some of them we recluses and didn't enjoy the actual life around them, but were able to paint it or sculpt it. There are so many things/themes an artists hides within their work. It's like a mystery and it never gets boring. I love that when you look at a painting you are looking into the eyes of that artists.
3. Who was your favorite artist in your original posting and who is your favorite visual artist now? If there is a difference, why do you think so? If you have the same favorite artist, why do you think so? Well my favorite artists were my nrother and sister. They still are but I have also added Picasso (whose works I did not like before).
4. Now that you've completed this course, how do you feel about taking an online course? Is your answer the same as it was in your first posting? How is it the same or different? I feel that an online course works if you want it to. Sometimes though things happen and it's impossible to stay on track. I wish that I hadn't had certain things happen throughout the course, because I feel like I missed out on a lot of what I should have gained and had to rush through things that I would have enjoyed spending lots of time on.
