A slide show of my favorite works of art

On the graffiti beat

This piece of graffiti artwork says "We are diverse. Are we unified?". The world is diverse in so many ways but in the end, we really don't know if we can all come together as one.

The art of this culture

This is a picture of B.B. King. He is a well-known blues singer from Chicago.

I love this piece of architecture

i love this piece of architecture because it is so different. It looks like it took hard work and effort to even think of this blueprint. To actually build this had to be a hard task.

My favorite artist

My favorite artist is singer, song writer, actress, and dancer Beyonce. She puts on a show like no other. When you go to a Beyonce show you will definitely get your money worth. Her beautiful voice along with her crazy dance moves, and her sexy costumes keep me entertained throughtout the entire show.

Poetry slam

This is my favorite poem. Its called Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.

I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size

But when I start to tell them,

They think I'm telling lies.

I say,

It's in the reach of my arms

The span of my hips,

The stride of my step,

The curl of my lips.

I'm a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,That's me.

I walk into a room

Just as cool as you please,

And to a man,

The fellows stand or

Fall down on their knees.

Then they swarm around me,

A hive of honey bees.I say,

It's the fire in my eyes,

And the flash of my teeth,

The swing in my waist,

And the joy in my feet.

I'm a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,That's me.

Men themselves have wondered

What they see in me.

They try so much

But they can't touch

My inner mystery.

When I try to show them

They say they still can't see.

I say,

It's in the arch of my back,

The sun of my smile,

The ride of my breasts,

The grace of my style.

I'm a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,That's me.

Now you understand

Just why my head's not bowed.

I don't shout or jump about

Or have to talk real loud.

When you see me passing

It ought to make you proud.

I say,

It's in the click of my heels,

The bend of my hair,

the palm of my hand,

The need of my care,

'Cause I'm a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,That's me.

My right brain, my left brain

The left side of the brain thinks more logically but the right side thinks more emotionally and appeals to the feelings of oneself.

My photographic eye

This picture is unique in it's own way. I set this picture up so it would look exactly like this.

Fashion as art

This picture explains it all. Fashion is art. Using your body as a black canvas and coordinating the colors to match your style is creating art. Click on the picture to see the full image

Im having another catharsis

This is a picture of an air purifier. This little machine helps to cleanse the air of any germs or bacteria floating around in the air.

This Music video is a true work of art

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWzlD7Lc6w8


Kanye West's video Heartless is a true work of art. The entire video is an animated version of Kanye performing the song. The video even contains animated video vixens dancing. The song is about a love story and the animated characters, including Kanye, act out the love struggle of the song.

Dance

Dance is a way of displaying your feelings and emotions. Its a way of expressing yourself.

My blogroll

Art and the human behavior

I chose this picture because it displays what a human does when they feel alone. Humans often sit aloof from the world in their own corner so they can think.

Art and the human nature

I chose this picture because it mixes both human and nature together. The tree's almost look like humans intertwined with one another.

Art and the human condition

I chose this picture to represent human condition because simply by looking at the picture you can see that something is bothering the man in the picture. He has bullets of sweat on his forehead, he is holding a large torch that looks like a lit match, and his eyes are filled with worry. There is even a hand reaching out of the background, apearing as if it were reaching for help. He is wearing a suit and a hat and lives in the city which to me symbolizes he may be well off, but he still has things to worry about. That is his human condition.

Art and the human struggle

I chose this picture because it reminds me of a human struggling and fighting. It exemplifies humans fighting to be on top, to be the best at whatever they want to accomplish.

Meet this artist I know

Meet my cousin Jasmine. She is the artist that I know very fondly. She has an amazing singing voice and she writes beautiful music. She mostly sings gospel, but she also loves R&B.

Why I believe this film is a work of art

I think the movie Idle Wild, starring Outkast is a work of art. The way the film portrays its characters and settings in this western moive is definitely a work of art. In some scenes in the movies it looks as if you are looking at a painting, instead of a motion picture film.

Im having a catharsis

Catharsis is like a cleansing of oneself. This picture shows a little boy being baptized, washing away all his sins.
