When marketing, it is important to know whether color and location affect a person’s decision to take the product or not. Previous studies have looked at the effect that color and location has had on the taking behavior of people. Saito (1996) found that the geographical location and cultural proximity are possible factors for color preference. The study was done in Asian countries with university students. They were asked to rate their three most and least liked colors from a neutral color…

Harvest on the Campagna The piece I chose to write about is Harvest on the Campagna by John Gatsby Chapman. This piece is displayed in the Kentucky Museum at Western Kentucky University. The museum had a wide range of artwork both professional and local, although, this particular one caught my eye at the door as it was displayed in the front lobby near the entrance. This piece is approximately 8 x 3 ½ and was surrounded by a large golden frame that was surely a show stopper but, that’s not…

Depression and Anxiety have for many years been downplayed and minimized. Walking down the street one can hear individuals talking about their “depressing” weekend and the “anxiety” they feel over a possible date. What many fail to understand is that the fact that Anxiety and Depression are real mental illnesses that require a lot of work and extensive treatment. According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, “It 's not uncommon for someone with an anxiety disorder to also…

Postpartum depression (PPD) is defined as a mood disorder and a serious mental health concern that affects many women immediately or shortly after the birth of a child (NIMH, 2016). There is no single event or cause that brings on the effects of this depression. The mother has no influence over the introduction of this condition. With every woman having a different chemical structure, symptoms may appear or present differently. It affects 10-15% of new mothers but many of them remain…

What a patient has gone through in his or her life will also affect the bees in their bonnet. Knowing a person’s patient history will help me provide them better care. This primary source will tell me what medications they are allergic to, family history, and previous medical problems. Without this information I would not be able to provide a patient with the best care possible. Another reason history will be relevant to me…

In art class there were many concepts about the different techniques and designs in order to make a piece of artwork. With the creation of various unique art compositions one can tell the brushes or movement that the artist took upon his or her artwork. Throughout the museum field trip, there were two paintings that were intriguing that caught my attention. The first painting called “Cypresses” by Vincent van Gogh is an oil canvas that was created on 1889. This is an asymmetrical balance of the…

Color symbolism has an influential role in The Great Gatsby, as it has had in many literary works throughout history. It is used many times to give a deeper meaning to the story, and convey messages that the author doesn’t explicitly say. It is the responsibility of the reader to read closely, and try to find the deeper meaning in specific details of the story. In F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, The Great Gatsby, a tale is told of Jay Gatsby. Jay is a new money business man, and is intent on trying…

times it felt like simply one statement after another with a simple connection. For my next research paper, I hope to be able to find more secondary research and better the flow between them. I think I did a fair job of carrying on and connecting my primary and secondary sources but it could have been stronger. I talked about my research about framing and connected it to what I found but other than that the conversation fell flat. I’m still unsure as to how to improve that. I could not find many…
