Brazilian Carnival!!!



Bad Art



This work from Chris Burden doesn't stimulate my imagination when I look at it.  It reminds me of one day I put potato chips on a napkin which is a very ordinary thought.  However, because art is very subjective it could have deep meaning to the artist and other people observing it..

Good Art

This picture shows a cupcake that my mother gave to me in Brazil which have some Christmas designs and a small flag.  The time spent, design, flavor and effort put into baking this cupcake to be so beautiful is art for me.  Therefore, good art can come in many forms such as a cupcake or the churches of medieval Europe.  In other words, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder".

The fascinating world of Art..

Hello everyone,

When I knew that one of my core classes was Introduction to Art, I was surprised because my major is Civil Engineering.  Imagine a lot of math, physics and chemistry...  However, with only a few classes I learned a lot through the Professor's videos and my trip to MoMa.  Setting up my blog account was a great learning experience also...
