What did you learn about from completing your Artist Research Project?
I learned a lot about my artist, Thomas Hart Benton. I really like his artwork because it is of the wild west and country life. I also learned how a back ground of the artist affects what his artwork is about.
What did you learn from presenting?
Have a clear strong voice, try not to stutter or trip over words. Don't talk too fast, people won't understand what you're saying. Eye contact, though I didn't go up and talk, that is still what you do, or else you sound like a robot reading off your iPad/paper.
What are you most proud of?
I am proud of all of it. I got all the information I needed and more. It was cool researching about Thomas Hart Benton.
How do you now understand the visual arts in relation to history and culture?
There weren't cameras back then, so how do you know how life was like? That is a reason for what art is for. Thomas painted Western life like a flood or hailstorm. Now-a-days, you can have 1,000+ pictures on you cellphone and hailstorms don;t destroy everything, because everything is sturdier and better.
What did you learn about art movements?
Every one is unique and different like Pointillism to Regionalism.
