White coat

When I look at this piece of art I get a sense of tension going through me because I want to save the human that is in the water. One man with the stick and the black coat looks like he’s going to try and kill the shark, while two other males are trying to save the human that’s in the water. There is one male that is trying to hold the males in the boat that are reaching for the human in the water. The African American…

The first thing in the morning is to prepare an outfit for the day. Generally when I am getting dressed I think about the weather, what classes I have to attend, and how I am feeling in general. If I am a bit down and just want to be left alone, I will wear black so I don’t stick out, but I still look like I tried to get dressed and look presentable. If I am in a good, happy mood, then I will go with a lighter color such as blue or orange. When getting dressed in the morning, have you ever…

collection, and as I look at this picture, I see two men in agony. Suffering or even stuck in life they do not want. The color palette used: blue, white and brownish-yellowish may signify the mood of the painting, but also, explicitly, defines the two men as the focal area of the painting. The brownish-yellowish rocks I believe also signifies a hard life, but the white clouds in the blue sky, defines even though the two men are suffering or in agony, their suffering…

blue, green, etc.) were rated 80% positively. The results also showed that achromatic colors (e.g., white, black, and grey) were rated positively only 29.2% of the time. Green was the most positively rated color and participants associated green with nature and soothing emotions. The Asian countries’ locations from Saito’s study are more industrious than the United States. This could explain why white was preferred in Asian countries, but green was preferred in the United States. Because of all…

associates Daisy with the color white, but to wear white is to be “an absolute little dream” (Schneider 2). Nick discovers white is a corrupt mixture of dream and reality (Schneider 3). To Gatsby, white is not pure, but it is inevitably stained by money. Daisy is a white flower with a golden center. In The Great Gatsby gold, along with silver symbolizes the dream and the reality. When Nick first sees Daisy, he notes they are “like silver idols weighing down their own white dresses…” [qtd in…

In “The Second Coming,” what does Yeats mean when he writes “The falcon cannot hear the falconer” (line 2)? How does this relate to “the centre cannot hold” (line 3)? In “The Second Coming” there is a footnote at the end of the first line explaining what Yeats envisioned for the word gyre. It mentions that it was meant to represent the age of Christians and how it was spiraling downwards to an end. With this in mind, the second line that reads, “The falcon cannot hear the falconer” it paints a…

shifts in color and lines. For example, Sophia’s white hair is formed by the use of a shift from the black background and her darker checkered body. Consequently. both lines and shift in color are implied at the same time as it creates shapes in the artwork. In this artwork, the light source is not seen. On the other hand, the light source is placed in the left of the artwork. This is presented when Minter uses the black Ben-Day dots overlaying white. It shows the artworks focal point, Sophia,…

the color “white” in both Sonnet 12 and 99 represents one of Shakespeare’s most prominent themes: the inevitable concept of time, in Sonnet 12, the narrator, reflects that the only defense against Time’s scythe is having children (leaving behind a legacy), while in Sonnet 99, the narrator condemns four different types of flowers for stealing attributes of his beloved (the Lilies stole the whiteness of his beloved’s hand, for example). In Sonnet 12, the narrator uses the color “white” to…

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…
