Wanderer Above The Sea Of Fog By Freidrich

The lines outline the water, the clouds, the trees, all show the volume and depth of each element. The use of lines surrounding the ocean and land show the division between each land and water. The use of lines on the rocks show the layers and rigid layout of the land instead of just a flat ledge. The painting also has a lot of shape and definition. The clouds have a fullness so you can see the difference between sky and land. I think Bierstadt also used some aerial perspective in this painting. The sky is blue in spots showing that it is further back in the sky. It’s almost like you are looking down on the fishermen from the sky. The light is very bright and tends to stand out over much of the painting. At first glance your eyes are drawn straight to the light because much of the painting is very dark and gloomy. The light would be focal point of the whole piece. The light allows you to clearly see the mountains and the beach. I think a lot of low key values such as the dark clouds and the water were used in the painting. However, a lot of high key values were used such as the sky and the clouds. This painting is one of my all time

Instead of being afraid, be courageous and do not let fear affect difficult decisions. Courage is a choice everyone must make to overcome challenges. Though being courageous is hard, it always pays off. Even though it's easy to be scared, true courage is overcoming that fear. One example of overcoming fear is “The Ravine” by Graham Salisbury, in which a young boy named Vinny shows great courage by overcoming his fear of being bullied and standing up to peer pressure from his friends.

Some rocks are stretching all the way to the center of the lake, where some people and their cattle are standing. The whole painting don’t have any special focus because the artist didn’t give any part more attention. The whole scene seems clear and calm in a sunny weather. The sunlight comes from the top part of the sky behind trees around the lake on the right side of the painting.

The subject of this painting to me is a picture of the Pacific coast when a rainstorm is starting to come inland. The context is Indians on boats just gotten to the coast to avoid the storm that has already started at sea.

His hand is positioned on the bottom left of the frame with the fingers and palm situated towards the middle left side. The shoulders positioned in the top third cut through representing a horizon. The direction of the fingers makes your eye travel around the painting, the tie the slices through the middle of the shirt, the cuff of the shirt cuts across to stop your eye falling out of the frame, the lightness balancing all the darkness. The mouth dominates the image and drags you eye back to the

The convergence of the implied lines forming the river banks with the fading blue mountains on the right produce a left to right movement when viewing the painting. The invisible lines created by the mountain range and the river emphasize direction by moving the viewer from a narrow and cramped foreground to a vastly open background that seems to go on for miles. His use of lines to produce this movement down the river has an effect of taking the viewer on a short ride into the distance towards the open mountains under a clear blue sky with white fluffy clouds. In contrast the buildings in the distance are enveloped in white with much softer lines and less defined outlines. This progression from clearly outlined and defined to less defined and wispy shapes communicates the thought of starting a journey in firm reality and moving down a dreamy river towards the unknown. Carefree clouds, beautiful mountains, and blue water just take the viewer to a more serene place, away from the reality of the

The sharpness of the waves contrasts the soft sky. The equal amount of water to sky makes the this painting balanced. Contrary to the title, the main focus of this piece is the fisherman in the boat. The wind seems to be blowing from the northwest to the southeast as the directions of the waves indicate. The waves have a very defined shape.

The first thing to note is the overall composition of the painting. First and foremost it is a landscape painting. The colors are very monochrome; the space is stretched to reveal a depth to the painting that the eye cannot capture; and there is stillness to the art that embraces nature and serenity of life. In the right-hand corner of the painting there is calligraphy. The calligraphy lacks the precision, but is very clear in its form, much like the depiction within the painting

In this novel, the reoccurring theme of responsibility is prevalent throughout Krakeur’s ascent up the “third pole” of the world, Mt. Everest. It is responsibility that eventually leads John’s climbing guide to drive himself to death as he struggles to lead his clients up the mountain. This theme shows us that a hiking guide should provide the utmost care and satisfaction to his clients throughout the climb, but should refrain from doing so when the guides own health is in a significant amount of danger. Even other fellow clients and climbers should be able to depend on each other for aid and safety, but never at the risk of their own life. The actions of Andy Harris, Krakauer’s climbing guide, and his bold determination to care for the survival and well-being of his clients, make us question the depths to which a person should go to care for other people before caring for themselves.

It is a beautiful painting. In the painting, the sun appears to be shining down upon the mountain range. The light appears to be almost religious. The way it is painted causes your eyes to be drawn into the light, in the center of the painting. The waterfall and lake appear to be still and the animals (deer or elf I presume) look west.

As we look towards to the back of the painting we see the mountains getting smaller and becomes blurry. Next, there is movement. We know waves crash and in the front

In Name of the Wind, Patrick Rothfuss gives life to The Four Corners of Civilization through his storytelling. Storytelling gives the author an opportunity to show their experiences and reflect their beliefs within the world they are creating. During the time this book was being written, there was the Iraq and Afghanistan War taking place which had been sending many soldiers back home with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Rothfuss parallels this disorder within his book through the main character, Kvothe, when he experiences trauma and he shows how Kvothe copes with the persisting trauma through grief theory, “four doors of the mind” (135) . His four doors of the mind is similar to the Kubler-Ross Model, which is widely accepted by practitioners, but challenges it by believing the mind copes with pain through the central idea of numbing. However, this mindset of categorizing emotions experienced within grief can be destructive behavior towards any griever rather than helping them cope; stages of post-loss grief do not exist.

God is a beyond exceptional being. He loves everyone, helps everyone, and most importantly, does the best things for everyone. In my life, others' lives, and "At the Back of the North Wind" by George MacDonald, God shows that He can be good when He allows bad things to happen. Believe it or not, I had one of the toughest beginnings to my life that anyone could imagine. For the first ten years of my life, I was neglected, abused, and treated like a lion treats his prey.

The rambunctious and mischievous children’s short storybook, Where The Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak, is not an appropriate book for young children to read. Where The Wild Things Are is a story of a rebellious young child named Max. One night, Max puts on his wolf suit and creates mayhem and mischief. His frustrated mother banishes him to his room and labels him a ‘Wild Thing’. In Max's room, a whole new world appears with overgrown trees, dangling vines, and ominous oceans.

Earth, a vibrant blue sphere in the solar system, is the only planet in the solar system that is currently known to host a multitude of life. Everything needed to survive and thrive is provided under a thin veil of atmosphere that separates all terrestrial organisms from the vast, frigid void of space. Earth is made up of intricate, collaborating systems that are often unpredictable. Land, water, air, and life-bearing organisms, including humans, collaborate to create a constantly fluctuating biosphere that is still being investigated to have a deeper understanding of its processes. In today’s technological age, the collection and interpretation of data has become paramount to help devise strategies to combat future threats. Data collection comes in many forms, but the collection and interpretation of climate data will be the topic under scrutiny. Recent data collected and analyzed by scientists suggests that the global climate is increasing in temperature and that information may be a cause for alarm. Why would this be a cause for alarm? The alarm should come from an understanding of how each living organism depends on one another to survive. If the delicate biological cycle is damaged or broken, the results could be catastrophic; forever changing the planet. This change in temperature may potentially affect all organisms that are currently known and those that have yet to be discovered and documented. This scenario is far too
