Art

 __ Summing up art articles __ __ By: Anna Hill __  This year has been an amazing year in Newspaper class. We have been writing articles like crazy! We had beats to do. Each Beat was a section of the newspaper online. It’s been so much fun! I love writing about art! I’m an artistic person, so I loved writing about art. Here is a summary of the articles I’ve done in art so far. My first article- WHAT IS HAPPENING IN HTMS’S ART CLASS? - I really had no idea what to do. I said that they are drawing line ear perspectives and they are drawing building so that they look realistic. But as I said this was my first article. I was having difficulties. I have improved so much since the first article though. My second article-ARTISTIC ARTIST HARD AT WORK-  was about our HTMS students working hard to achieve their goals of being artist when they are older and grown. The 170 students that she has were studying and artist by the name of Paul Cezanne. My third article-THE PRIMARY PICASSO - this article was about Pablo Picasso. It gave his life story. It also talks about his many stories and many wives that he has had. He had many wives and many children. My fourth article- DA VINCI DA WHO?-  This article was about Leonardo Da Vinci and his life story. I looked up his life stories and his background. He was very… interested in the form of a woman’s body. That is what he was so good at; he was very good at painting pictures of nude women.

__Vincent Van Gough__ __By: Anna Hill __  Van Gough. He was a very interesting man. We’ll start with the basics and move our way to the important stuff. Van Gough was born in Holland in 1853. He got started in art by workin with jobs that consisted of art. He worked at a bookstore, an art gallery, a school, a preacher, and finally an artist.  Van Gough didn’t live a very happy and exiting life. He showed that in his art by painting pictures of sad and poor people in them. His paintings were also very dark instead of the very colorful and bright pictures most people painted. He was not satisfied with where he lived so, he moved in with his brother. <span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Black','sans-serif'"> Van Gough found someone to paint with so he wouldn’t be so depressed all the time. Apparently this was a bad mistake. They didn’t get along about anything. So finally Van Gough became so depressed and so angry that he cut off half of his ear! <span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Black','sans-serif'"> <span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Black','sans-serif'">After these things happened, he painted one more gloomy painting. It was called //Wheatfield with Crows//. After he finished it, he shot himself. <span style="COLOR: darkgreen; FONT-FAMILY: 'ALBERTUS','serif'"> __

Da Vinci Da Who????? __ ==<span style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt; COLOR: lime; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Berlin Sans FB Demi','sans-serif'">Leonardo Da Vinci <span style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt; COLOR: lime; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Berlin Sans FB Demi','sans-serif'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial">is known for the world famous painting called __Mona Lisa.__ Da Vinci painted this portrait during the 16th century Italian Resonance. The painting is still in good condition and hanging in Paris, France. This painting was a portrait of another man’s wife, and Da Vinci painted a picture of her? <span style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt; COLOR: lime; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Berlin Sans FB Demi','sans-serif'"> ==

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt; COLOR: lime; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Berlin Sans FB Demi','sans-serif'">
==<span style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt; COLOR: lime; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Berlin Sans FB Demi','sans-serif'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial">The reason behind it being so famous is no matter which way you look at it, it seems as though the picture is starring straight at you. It follows you everywhere! The expression on Lisa’s face is describes as enigmatic. Her expression is half smile, half frown (almost like a smirk.) The only remaining question behind the Mona Lisa is why? Why did Da Vinci paint the Mona Lisa? Could it happen to be a love affair with another man’s wife or were her looks just intriguing to him? That is a question that only Leonardo Da Vinci can answer. ==

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt; COLOR: lime; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Berlin Sans FB Demi','sans-serif'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial">
==<span style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt; COLOR: lime; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Berlin Sans FB Demi','sans-serif'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial">The portrait of Mona Lisa still today remains a mystery. Why was it just her he painted? Why was she smirking? Mysteries that will probably never be solved remain about Da Vinci and the Mona Lisa. He painted thousands of pictures and still questions still lurk about the Mona Lisa. Exactly why is that? =) <span style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt; COLOR: lime; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Berlin Sans FB Demi','sans-serif'"> ==

==__What is happening in Hewitt Trussville Middle School's Art Class??????__ <span style="FONT-SIZE: 18pt; COLOR: aqua; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Bernard MT Condensed','serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-font-kerning: 18.0pt">By: Anna H. <span style="COLOR: #ff00db; FONT-FAMILY: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #00ff00">The middle school students in art class are doing one and two line ear perspectives. They are very busy learning and drawing. Today in the class the teens are drawing buildings so the y look realistic. == = Art is a hobby! : ) =

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: #5e3bf1; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Kristen ITC'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial"> __ The Artistic Artist Hard at Work! __ __ By: Anna H. __ The teens at HTMS are hard at work in art class. The students are busy at work. The class talks about artist very frequently. The latest one that they have talked about is Paul Cezanne. He painted France and is known as “The Father of Art”. The students also do paintings with materials, just like Paul Cezanne. It depends on the project they are doing; that is how they determine which materials to use. Usually the students use simple materials to learn the basics before going on to the harder stuff. Mrs. Reichert has 170 students. As of today, they are making pottery and small sculptures out of clay. The students are due doing a prodigious job. Making pottery only requires patience and technique. It also depends upon skill, but getting skill requires practice and an eye for art. =)   Mrs. Reichert (the art teacher for HTMS) teaches every period for 50 minutes. She has practice and now she is an exquisite artist. She isn’t professional though. She teaches students <span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: #5e3bf1; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Kristen ITC'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial">to teach students how art relates to every other subject they take in school. She says that she reaches students to provide the opportunity to express themselves in a visual way. She also says that she teaches them because, “In order to provide the opportunity to practice creative problem solving in each activity they do in my class, I teach them what they need to know about art.”  <span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: #5e3bf1; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Kristen ITC'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial">  The HTMS art classes are hard at work. Our little artists will soon become BIG.

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; BACKGROUND: red; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Cooper Black','serif'; mso-highlight: red">!The Primary Picasso! <span style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Cooper Black','serif'"> <span style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; COLOR: red; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold','sans-serif'">Picasso was a mind-blowing artist. Pablo Picasso was an artist born in Malaga, Spain on October 25th 1881. Then he passed away on April 8th, 1973. His full name was: <span style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; COLOR: red; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold','sans-serif'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial">Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Martyr Patricio Clito Ruiz y Picasso. He was an artist that certainly knew what he was doing. He was a Spanish Painter, Sculptor, and a draughtsman. <span style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; COLOR: red; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold','sans-serif'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial"> What made Picasso big in the first place was his first painting: <span style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; COLOR: red; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold','sans-serif'">Les Demoiselles d'Avignon. It was a painting of a group of nude women. That painting made him huge. One painting lead to another after another; his hands were as hot as fire. <span style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; COLOR: red; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold','sans-serif'"> Picasso had many children. He had all his children with different wives. He was a busy man and he had no time for children so he just abandoned them and his many wives. He didn’t stop for anything. He reached merely over 20,000 pieces of art work. Wow! Isn’t that amazing?
