Chapter 3: Sculpture




Descriptive:
Wooden base with wires arranged in the shape of two hands. The wires are arranged to just be the outline of the hands. The base is a simple solid wooden piece.

Technical Elements:
The dimensionality of the figure is linear. The construction is with thin, elongated item such as wire. This sculpture uses composition by being comprised of the same elements. This sculpture uses the natural color of the wire and wood base with any addition of paint. The sculpture uses the natural color and elements in the construction.

Stimulation of Senses:
I view the sculpture to be a pair of “helping hands.” The hands appear to be as if they are being presented out and together in uniformity. They appear to be gentle in nature and nonaggressive. In the nursing field being able to help people a give a helping hand is what our jobs are meant to be about.
The artist is a male from India. The wire is being bent into freestanding line drawings.

Chapter 2: Pictures


Description:
This picture is taken at a hotel in Sarasota, Florida. It is wooden bridge that is being crossed by two young blonde haired girls that are dressed up. The rock waterfall is flowing into a green water retention area. A bird had stopped on a concrete edge of a gardened area. The wind appears to be lightly blowing by the sway of the little girl’s hair. It was originally printed onto a light colored canvas.

Technical Elements:
This photograph uses secondary hues. The hues use more than just the primary colors (red, blue and yellow) and using secondary hues as derivatives of primaries. The changes in intensity allows for the green of the water to show variations and depth. The picture demonstrates mass in relation to other objects. The mass of the child in relation to the mass of the railing.

Stimulation of senses:
I love young children. They show such innocence and inquisitiveness. The curiosity of children to explore their surroundings makes things seem so pure in nature. The running water makes the picture appear calm and innocent.
