In Thomas Cole’s The Oxbow he depicts a landscape in the aftermath of a storm. Contrasting darkness into light a clear view is given of the remnants of the storm shown by dark clouds and gnarled trees and metamorphoses into the bright and sunny New England countryside. In comparison Hokusai’s Ejira in Suruga Province, also a landscape but shown in a different perspective. Where The Oxbow is seemingly calm and contained, Ejira In Suruga Province is a flurry of motion its’ inhabitants scurrying for shelter from the powerful gusts of wind.…
I picked John Byrd, the artist, because most of his projects are of animals and i am an animal person that has a lot of love for animals. He looks like he is trying to convey his love for nature, animals, and interest for the organs and intestines of animals. John looks like he is trying to show the animals in a relatable way so more people can connect and relate to the artwork. In most of his pieces, John shows the animal with its inside organs and intestines showing through, maybe showing that we are all the same inside. The sculpture is labeled as a horse but untitled, it is a horse standing on what looks like a stone platform. His description of the artwork doesn’t tell the meaning behind the sculpture or its reasons for the…
In conclusion, Tim Burton’s art style is clearly unique. He uses certain colors that help develop a character. The fact that he can use certain colors do develop something shows that this man is truly talented, Edward scissorhands and Vincent are perfect examples of his…
When looking at the two images of John Taylor and Howling Wolf’s views on the way the treaty signing of 1867 happened we can begin to see the way both represented their own view. In my opinion, John Taylor represented the treaty signing better in the eyes of all of us. He may of used only black and white for his painting, but the distinguishing lines that help form both the figures and nature are much clearer. In John Taylor’s picture I can tell that it is a meeting of some kind. The way that all the men are sitting around as one man stands in the middle with his hand up almost as if he is addressing the group with some serious news. Taylor allows you to see the faces of these men and the different facial looks of interest they all had. Howling Wolf on the other hand showed the backs of those watching and only a poor side view of the men standing. Wolfs painting looks more like the end of a meeting gone bad. You can see two men trying to get a horse to come to them. The horse standing firm as not to go near them, almost to say even the horse was standing its ground away from the men. Then you see two other men with something, maybe a pen, in his hand. From the face of this man with the object he looks like he is handing the pen off to a man that we cannot see the face of. To me I wonder if Howling Wolf had problems with the signing of the treaty and used his abstract ways to show it.…
The usage of a wolf, and the horse which is known to be a completely different creature when it comes to comparing them psychologically. The wolf is known to be a loner, also known to be very dangerous; however a horse is known to be a companion and an animal that could be reliable and dependable, connecting back to that first part of the passage, the wolf is mentioned within a dull and mysterious environment full of negativity. Moreover the horse is known more to be on the peaceful side, witnessing peace, cleansing, and repentance.…
In “The Osage Firebird,” The author adds more detail to fill in gaps in the passage. In the passage “A Life Painting Animals,” The author leaves a few gaps in the story, and doesn't give all of the information needed. The gaps in “A Life Painting Animals,” don’t help support the passage, because the reader does not get all the information, and can not grasp the next part. In “A Life Painting Animals,” the author doesn't tie the sections together as well as the author of “The Osage Firebird.”…
This drawing is considered to be a more honest depiction of the events held at Medicine Lodge Creek due to what aspect he includes that all others are missing. When looking over a comparison drawing of the event, done by Taylor, you notice that in Taylor’s drawing, there are many native men, and white men, but only one woman. This woman was not even a full native, yet instead an interpreter for one of the tribes. In the drawing done by Howling Wolf however, he represents the many native women present, and identifies them with characteristics in their hair, or on their tepees. Howling Wolf’s drawing is mainly focused on the women, and represents their great importance with the treaty signing. Women were very important to the tribes. They played a great role and importance all over the Plains society. Howling Wolf in my opinion was more honest as to include all members that took part in the treaty signing, as opposed to others, who picked and choose whose importance was needed in the art.…

William’s uses Damien Hirst, her example of art, that’s not art, throughout her writing of, “A Shark in the Mind of One Contemplating Wilderness. She cites some of his displays. I looked up one, and disgusted I went no further. He is as much an artist a butcher working in some cattle yard warehouse is. Displaying the mutilated carcass’ of slaughtered animals, is not art. I agree with William’s disregard of this as a form of art. It is a display of a nurtured talent for cruelty. Nature’s very own version of, “Jack the Ripper.” William’s spoke of bringing Hirst to the wilderness, “let him bring along his chain saw, Cutting Ahead (1994), only to find out somebody has beat him to it, creating clear-cut sculptures out of negative space, eroding space, topsoil running like blood down the mountainsides as mud. Mud as material. He would have plenty of material.” We should invite him to southern West Virginia. Mountain Top Removal is exactly that. Communities once rich in family and generations of mountain tradition, now broken. Homes flooded, mudslides, with some of the no longer passable. Destructive actions not only damage…
In the intriguing story of “Never Cry Wolf,” Farley Mowat shares his experience studying Arctic wolves and caribou on an investigation in the Barren Lands of central Keewatin. What I presumed to be a dull memoir on wolves, turned out to be an emotional and nearly humorous text about a naturalist becoming fond of Arctic wolves. Mowat has an elaborate use of diction as well as syntax, imagery, pathos and anthropomorphism.…
In Lord of the Flies, William Golding utilizes figurative language to compare the depiction the Jack’s jungle to that of Simon’s jungle to represent different approaches of humans to the natural world.…
The pairing that I have chosen for my comparison is A Lady with a Parrot and a Gentleman With a Monkey by Casper Netscher and The anointing of David by Samuel by Benouville. Netscher and Benouville both represents human forms and use animals to draw symbolic parallels, they greatly differ in their depiction of the human form, attention to detail, and use of shadows in a way that greatly exemplifies the ideals of art for their time period.…

Throughout the poem Richard wright the author uses imagery personification and symbolism to help the reader feel exactly how he felt a descriptive way. “One morning while in the woods I stumbled suddenly upon the thing’ you can see the speaker stumbles over the body and there is disbelief of his view. I am aware that the body he was stumbling over was the body of a African American who was lynched maybe the night before .I could tell by the way the speaker spoke about it that he was affected by it .I noticed that he used imagery to communicate his attitude toward the things he saw in the woods. For example when he is referring to the torn tree it basically says Richard was torn inside .He uses personification so readers can feel the emotion…
