Professor Galina Shevchenko

 Last week Professor Gabby brought us to the 8 floors to listen to Professor Galina introduce her art studio. She introduced us to the subjects covered in the art studio on the 8th floor. Especially the digital multimedia design she taught, which she explained in great detail. What impresses me is her clothes, which are rich in color and have personality. I admire her very much.

Building tour

 Building Tour I have a good tour of my art class. I had an unprecedented experience, and the first time I took a class outdoors. This course is to search for Chicago architecture and then give a speech to the students. My team Iris and I are in charge of explaining the Richard J. Daley Center. It is also called Chicago Civic Center after December 27, 1976, the building was renamed for Mayor Daley. 

My experience with the Harold Washington Mural

My experience with the Harold Washington Mural  I like to draw, but I have never painted such a large mural. I am very grateful to Professor Gabby for giving me this opportunity to give full play to my strengths. Although I am only responsible for a small part of the coloring work, I really enjoy it. My classmates and I are very excited to participate in the production of works. Hope to have the opportunity to experience it again next time.

   My experience exploring the AIC website The AIC website is a richly informative website where I can learn many things about art. At first, t he home page shows me the time of the latest art exhibition and recommendations. Of course, I can find the price and address of the AIC on the website. I can preview the information from the website before visiting the museum, so I can visit the artwork with a clear goal without wasting time.   Also, I have 3 images from  the collection: No.1: Water Lilies (1906) Claude Monet French, 1840-1926 Water Lilies is a famous work by Monet. I chose this work first because its rich colors attracted me. If I look closely, I can find the painting technique is very delicate, and I also can see the clear brushstrokes. This is the second point that attracts me. No.2: Water Lilies Pond (1900) This artwork was also painted by Monet. T his is the pond that Monet liked very much. He would come here to describe this pond at ...

Au lit: Le baiser, 1892

  Henri De Toulouse-Lautrec Au lit: Le baiser ,  1892 The image described two naked women lying in bed and kissing. The background of this picture is in a brothel where the artist watched the lives of prostitutes, and he was interested in their love affairs. He was interested in lesbians and wanted to tell their stories. He painted this ode to a special kind of love in 1892 as one of four paintings of female couples. These scenes launched a series of his works that describe the lives of women who have no choice but to surrender to reality.

Color

I love color, and my life is always around color. Most colors that I love it. There are green, yellow, blue, pink, and purple. One of my favorite colors is green because I think green is a calm color that could relax me. Green can also have many variations. My favorite greens are avocado green and dark green. Avocado green symbolizes spring and warmth in my heart. When I am in a good mood and the day is a very happy day, I will pair it with avocado green accessories. I'll be happy when I see it. When I want to cool off, dark green is my first choice. Dark green feels calm and peaceful. I think this color is mature and makes me feel like an "adult". I like this image also due to the green, and the sense makes me feel like I'm swimming in the universe. The surrounding red, yellow, blue, and black are like various emotions in my life. I am surrounded by green, so these little emotions are nothing to me.
