I have always loved and appreciated art, but I never considered myself being an artist or even capable of being an artist.

The article, Triple-Self Portrait, illustrated by Charles Rosen and Henri Zerner is a descriptive process of a self-painting constructed by Norman Rockwell. The portrait is claimed to be a clever and witty comment on the artist’s own art. The artist has three pictures into one. The three pictures that are tacked on the top left on the canvas, the black-and-white drawing of Rockwell’s face, and the picture that represents him working from the back. Is it realism or something that can be called a…

A Single Shard The culture was Korean and Japanese. Which they tried to base it up about pottery making and learning how to do pottery and make potts. The location was in Korea and they didn’t have technology but the phones on the wall. They used things that looked like a book bag but was made out of straw and carried the things in there like if you go to garden they will use those and put the pumpkins and other stuff like that in the book bag looking thing.

I had never been to a museum before and always thought I would be uninterested in what was displayed. It was very fun for me to see the differences in art throughout the ancient world. I also visited other collections throughout the museum but nothing was as interesting as the ancient world. It was surprising to me that the museum would be separated into different collections, I thought…

The two were part of the well-known Bloomsbury Group, and their home in Charleston as well as their work on the Church constitute the remaining evidence of the group's involvement with each other outside of London. Grant's painting Christ in Glory sits above the Berwick altar, demonstrating how the Bloomsbury Group took traditional…
