as some of the other professions, but it holds the high likelihood of taking me away from my home as well. Becoming a freelance artist would not take me away from my home, but the unstable pay and lack of guarantees make it an unwise decision. The art produced for sale may not fetch high prices, but an artist has more connections and side-job offers that can arise. Becoming a musician, similar to becoming a freelance artist, would have many uncertainties. These two fields often rely on public…
believed that artists were able to use this stolen fire to create art and interpret truth in a way that normal people were incapable of doing. This view led to them being revered as god-like or even as demigods! There were also many critics who neither trusted artists, as they had allegedly used the stolen fire from the Sun, nor believed they were of any value in the public circle, viewing artwork as useless. In other words, “Art doesn’t have the honesty of reason nor the power of philosophy.”…
The internet is full of a wide variety of digital interactive art and the artwork that stood out the most was Andy Deck, Glyphti (2001-2006).

Right Bird Left is a painting that primarily used four of the visual elements to show and display a different meaning of the painting. This is a painting that used implied texture, which was accomplished by the way the artist worked on the brush strokes. The strokes created an idea that there were textures that were actually on the painting, even though they were not there. I think that it was good that Krasner made the strokes look different with the brush and changed the way it looked because…
One of the least common art forms in the contemporary art world is the mosaic. Compared to the more common art forms such as painting or ceramics, mosaics have decreased in use from their peak in the ancient world.
