I love to play with my imagination so creating logos was fun it was a different experience for me being that i love to draw to express my feelings and to build up my drawing skills.

i explained on different things that i see on a everyday basis. things that influence my life and just my hobbies.
3. What was the most important discovery you made in the creation of your logo?
I thought that the logo looked much better in color so worked with different markers to see what would make the eyes pop
4. What is the most important information you learned from watching the videos, powerpoint, and reading material for this project? What is your opinion of the videos?
The videos are more informative. i learned a lot about logos from he videos that is what made me think more on my drawings and what i want it to represent. I was interested to hear about rebranding corporate images.

Art Making/Material Exploration #1: Exploring Value and The Subtractive Color Theory Blog
Discuss what you thought about creating the Value Scale and Color Wheel.
I found the process of creating the color wheel and value scale fun, but kind of hard I enjoyed mixing the colors and placing them on the wheel, i kind of made a remix to the color wheel but thats just me playing around with the colors and seeing what i would come up with. the value scale took time to get all the shades correct. the project was fun and easy to complete.
2. Which media did you enjoy working with the best and why?
The media that i enjoy the best and am most comfortable working with is pencil. I feel that the pencil allows more control over where you are shading in or drawing. Whereas with the paint brush you don't have as much control and it requires a much steadier hand.
3. What was the most important discovery in the creation of these studies?
The most important discovery for me in the studies were the difference between the primaries and secondary colors, and how each color is made. the fact that using the primaries of red, yellow, and blue instead of cyan. magenta, and yellow can create different secondary colors which i never knew of before this project i always thought cyan, magenta and yellow were mainly the assorted.
4. What is the most important information you learned from watching the videos for this project? What is your opinion of the videos?
The most important information i learned while watching the videos for this project was the difference between the primary colors red, yellow and blue, and the primary colors of cyan, magenta, and yellow. I think the video was well done and very informative. It got its message across and didn't take along time to do so. overall It was nice to see an example of what I was supposed to do, especially in the color wheel since I havent worked with paint in a while.

Week 3
1. Describe Color and it's effects on emotions. Use the appropriate vocabulary of color in your posting.Color is a visual attribute of things that results from the light they emit, transmit or reflect. Color has a very large effect on the emotions of people. People have complex emotional responses, and have either cultural or individual association with the colors. Colors can have contradictory cultural association, an example of this can be seen with the color red. Red can evoke the emotion of anger or danger, but can also evoke love or compassion. Color and emotion works best when there is context to provide clues to its meaning. examples being a red stop sign, or a red valentines day card.
2. What is a theoretical aspect of color that most intrigues/fascinates you? Why?
The theoretical aspect of color that most intrigues me is emotion. This aspect intrigues me because of the different ways color can make people feel, and the different emotions they evoke in people. The fact that a certain emotion is brought up from a color interests me because i am a marketing major. As a marketing major i have also learned that advertising uses colors to evoke emotions in consumers, thus leaving them feeling a certain way about a product.
3. In the Color video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions?
In the color video the thing that made the biggest impact on me was the works made by Mark Rothko. His paintings with just colors (intense reds and maroons) were created to evoke certain emotions into people. The paintings were intended for a restaurant but the artist became mad at the owners. The paintings he made were meant to evoke a feeling of being trapped, and to make the people in the restaurant feel uneasy.
4. In the Feelings video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions?
In the feelings video the differences between the two painters Goya and David, and what emotions they wanted to induce impacted me the most. David believe feeling is art yearning to be better, whereas Goya believed the opposite, that it was a murderous drive and the worst of humanity. The colors the artists used show how they view feeling and depict their differences. Goya used very dark colors that stimulate the fear and anger emotions and David used much lighter and happier colors.

Week Two - Blog: Video Review
1.For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Changeux ties in human evolution to art's evolution. He also analyzes the human brain and it's responses to different feelings such as aesthetic. He looks at different parts of the brain and points out where the brain's activity is during these feelings. Ramachandran gave a much better presentation. He also talks a lot about the brain and its responses to different feelings. With the Aesthetics Philosophy of the Arts video I learned about the history of the philosophers all the way back from Plato to the present time which brought me back to high school on my most favorite art class.
2. Which philosopher's theroy on aesthetics do you feel is most important? Be sure to mention the philosphers name, era (time in history), and contribtion to the aesthetic theory in your response.The idea of beauty by Plato. in the Fifth century athens Plato devoted him self to praising and exploring love, ultimately gives us a definition of beauty. He explains that it is the Form of Beauty that is the object of love. Diotima’s teachings describe a ladder of love that moves from the appreciation of singular beautiful bodies on up to the ultimate and higher contemplation of the Form of Beauty that makes it possible for us to discern individual cases of beauty at all. If we look at Plato’s theory of art, we see that he held an imitation theory of art that focuses attention on the objective properties of the work of art.
3. What do you think about Changeux and Ramachandran scientific view of aesthetics and art? What was the most interesting fact you discovered from each speakers lecture? Ramachandran made it very clear for me to understand the real point of view Aesthetics. He goes in depth about about the brain's reaction to real life events and compares them to our brain's response to while looking at art. I got a feel on how Changeux tied in the evolution of humans and the evolution of art. They dig deep on the brain's activity and responses to looking at art.
4. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
yes the video and the readings are similar in a scence the book has alot more wordy detail then in the video it tells a story that viewers can follow by. the video and book talked more deeply about the art and the history and what theme the art tries to present for views to grasp what they are painting. the reading are some what clear but the videos summed up everything that i read in the book.
5. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the topics in your reading?
My opinion on the first flim brings back to the era of aesthetics. the first film drew my attention at an instant once introdcuing the idea of beauty by plato my mind immeditaly went back to high school in my second year of art class. from there i began to graps everything that the narrator in the film and the book saying. the book was very wordy but once i read along it made more scence but the movie made it much clear for me to understand what the philopsher believe was really art,.
