Secondary color

The sky in the background is in a shade that gives it a grey blue color. This serves a couple purposes. First, it lessens the details in the background providing the atmospheric effect. Second, it places more emphasis on other aspects of the painting. When wondering what it draws emphasis to, the crashing wave stands out…

examine the independent variables, which are the colors of light, temperature and pH, the dependent variable of our experiment is the motility of the Euglena cells, the positive control is white light while the negative control is when there is no intentional light shined on the bacteria; we cannot keep all light off of the sample. We hope to be able to observe which direction the Euglena migrates towards by doing this, we will repeat each separate color three times in order to determine if our…

In The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald developed many motifs that span the whole book, Since a motif is a recurring image, detail, occurrence, etc. that an author develops to unify an idea and/or explore an idea, I chose the green light found throughout the book. The green light represents Gatsby’s dream to be with Daisy again and the perfect future that he strives for with Daisy. This idea is found throughout the book especially when Nick sees Gatsby alone at the end of chapter one, when Nick…

get outside on such a beautiful day. I sat down on the bridge and looked down at the shining river. The water was twenty feet below me and looked about fifteen to twenty feet deep. The large trees surrounding the river had just changed to their fall colors, and some leaves began to drift down. Fall was my favorite time of year, with football games, the cold weather, Halloween, and Thanksgiving nothing was better. I layed back on the bridge, threw my arms above my head, and sighed. I had many…

I remember waking up early in the morning, even before the sun began its day. I knew it would be cold, but still I couldn't wait to get out on the water in my grandfathers boat. "Come on sleepyhead, don't forget the early bird catches the worm," my grandmother called out. I'd holler back, "I'm awake," even though I never understood what a worm or a bird had to do with anything. I was eleven years old and had so much of life figured out, and it wasn't until I was thirteen that I realized I was…

Picture yourself in a desert. You are alone, left to your own thoughts and the sound of the wind blowing in your ears. I can close my eyes and experience this very feeling of lonesomeness and solidarity. Christina's World by Andrew Wyeth causes me to experience these feelings when I am left to myself to study the painting. Upon first look, one is immediately drawn into the girl, laying almost limp on the ground. One might wonder if she chooses to be this way or if it is due to a medical…

In the essay the author’s thesis is that the pentangle is directly juxtaposed with the green girdle and that the transition from the pentangle to the girdle represents Gawain’s transition from “the emblematic world of the pentangle into one of opinion and uncertainty” (Ralph 3) so therefore the “pentangle, the emblem of a world where meaning is clear and exemplary, becomes replaced by an object, the girdle, to which meaning must be assigned” (Ralph 2). The author supports her thesis by stating…

In my Thursday seminar 2 class we were to focus on an artwork emphasizing certain elements of art such as shape, mass, and light. I took a like in a certain landscape piece entitled “On the Beach” by Donna Gilbertson made in Australia. This is an 18” x 14” landscape painting, but this certain work is not dated. It is said to be “painted in a loose impressionistic style.” Seeing that “On the Beach” shows children on a beach likely enjoying themselves. I would say that this painting is very…

vision start to fade and growing slightly blurry…. I don’t feel much in the way of pain… but am I actually dying? Finally activating her aura, further shots were repelled. Upon seeing Ruby’s Aura activate the bear realized he had no chance. He himself was not an aura user. Ruby thrust down the naginata once more into the squirrels arm before he reached his shotgun. “Hey Rio, We got to get away from here we can’t take em now!” the bear faunas glancing over at the Koala. Fear in his eyes as Emmet,…

I leap away from cold, fierce eyes set in a stony face. But for the blood drawing down dour lips, its’ chiseled features are indifferent to the hot rage in its’ eyes. I recoil, but my back slams hard against the dank crypt wall. I would rip my terrified stare from the creature, if I could and I know not to turn my back to the beast. I don’t have to look to know that my friend lies dead at the feet of the immortal. The monster had tossed Chris’s limp body aside, as if he were a slurped…
