Art has always been a passion of mine, no matter what the form. It has always been something that can appeal to all tastes, no matter how unusual they may be. I am often working on a collection of art projects ranging from things like drawing and painting, to music and video. Working on projects helps me express my creativity and I also find it relaxing working on things that I enjoy. Out of all the different forms of art I do, drawing is what I work on the most. Drawing is the basis for most…

I’m from ripe, yellow, and riper than before, bananas and smooth, juicy, peanut butter in a jar. The jelly and bread got up and ran away. I am from fresh, bright red, succulent, tomatoes right off the vine. I’m from dead deer and fresh venison. I’m from Old, antique cars and fast, furios, prowling supercars, and trucks with heaps of mud on them with flags and more mud. I’m from muddy, wet, and ponding soccer fields and soccer balls in the back of the net on the whole other side of the field.…

What is the most important element of an engineer’s job? Speed or safety? There is no doubt that most engineers choose the public’s safety as their first priority instead of speed, for even a small difference between draft and reality can lead to engineering disaster. For some engineers who hold the speed as the highest goal, they had left several sever disasters caused by flaws in their engineering design; from their unforgettable experience, engineers put more thought in to the design before…

Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Nadezhda Petrovna Vygovskaya, a survivor of the event recalls “I can still see the bright-crimson glow, it was like the reactor was glowing. This wasn 't any ordinary fire, it was some sort of shining.” During the night graphite reactor number 4 had exploded and was releasing seven tons of dangerous radiation into the surrounding area (Borrero).…

called ‘Thermo Composite Technology’. This gives the bats lots of pop, and the increasing speed of the batted ball speed of 3.85 mph more than wood bats. The importance of this composite material is that it uses a carbon fiber polymer and a strong graphite wall in the inside so it is packed with power. Since wood bats don’t have that technology, there is way less power to a…

Shakily, I breathe in. Retreating from the room where voices are hurled at one another like bullets, I find solace in the kingdom of clothes. The clothing dryer hums and heaves, radiating heat. I like it here, even if it is not far enough to drown out the sound of a war waged only by spoken word. As I tiptoe further into the room, something outside crashes to the floor, shattering—I am used to broken things: toys, crayons, vases, marriages. The dryer beeps, indicating the end of a cycle and the…

I had to understand why Seurat used such a difficult technique for his work. I then came upon the theory that perhaps he wanted to produce a deeper sense of life in his paintings. All things in the world are composed of millions of cells, and these cells create objects, color, and everything that practically exists. I imagine that Seurat's motive was to utilize this scientific law in his work to give an atmosphere of life, texture, and movement in the scenes that he…

stylistic choices, sticking almost entirely to what I already knew. In Mr. Palmer’s class, however, art projects in a multitude of new styles suddenly became mandatory, and I was soon elbow-deep in acrylics, pastels, colored pencils, watercolors, and graphite. I discovered a special love for watercolors and colored pencils, which prompted me to purchase my own supplies and experiment independently. I soon began to see progress, and even put my abilities to use selling handmade Christmas cards. I…
