Art in different forms

I particularly liked our last assignment. One of my other classes that I'm taking this quarter is fundamentals of drawing. Im learning a lot about the structure of art and center of interest and what not. I did my paper on William Carlos Williams' The Great Figure and how it went along with Charles Demuth's painting I Saw the Figure 5 in Gold. I was able to use some of what I learned in my art class about the wieght of some objects/ center of interest and apply it to my paper to show how the two worked together. I also had never seen the two different types of art paired together and the idea was very interesting to me. Thanks for the good assignment Jared!

Hey, thank you for making my day with that post! Making connections between classes--that's a dream come true for me!

I agree that linking classes together is nice, and actually helps you learn. People just get more interested in classes when they take one that they like and apply it to some other class. Last year I took an ethics class and I’m still using some of it in my classes.
