the first piece looks like the guy is eating a little naked man. the guy looks like he is either liveing in a cave or underground, hes dirty, boney. this work is composed of no color. the overall mood of this piece is sad and dark. i don't really like this piece because its wierd.
the other piece looks like a dead guy in a bath tub who was wrighting a letter. the piece is composed of line and shape. the overall mood of this piece is sad and drak like the first piece. this piece is better than the first piece but i don't think you should paint a dead guy.
the frist picece i think is Romanticismwhy i think this is because the frist piece looks like its a legend, you can see the brushstrokes, and its exotica.
and the other piece is Neoclassicism because it has no trace of brushstrokes, calm, and its stressed drawing with lines.

Neoclassicism vs. Romantic
http://animoto.com/play/Q4cq0M9IvSAGwSzT8UXvwQ?utm_content=escape_link
artist and the name of the pictures used in the slideshow
1)delaroc By J.L David
2)insane By Theodore Gericault
3)white horseBy Theodore Gericault
4)the crowing by J.L David
5)Steen The Morning Toilet by Theodore Gericault
6)SuperStock by J.L David
We picked these pictures because they best illustrate what we picked to use in the slideshow. We picked to use values: order Vs. emotion, tone: calm Vs. spontaneous, techinque: not color Vs. rich color. We also picked the music because it went with the slideshow the best out of all the other music that we had to picke from. We picked the mariage of figaro-overture by Mozart. I would say that i'm not a big fan of either Neoclassicism or Romantic but that i like both the Neoclassicism and Romantic the same.

Right brain vs. left brain
Left Brain | Right Brain |
47% | 53% |
You are more right-brained than left-brained. The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body. In addition to being known as right-brained, you are also known as a creative thinker who uses feeling and intuition to gather information. You retain this information through the use of images and patterns. You are able to visualize the "whole" picture first, and then work backwards to put the pieces together to create the "whole" picture. Your thought process can appear quite illogical and meandering. The problem-solving techniques that you use involve free association, which is often very innovative and creative. The routes taken to arrive at your conclusions are completely opposite to what a left-brained person would be accustomed. You probably find it easy to express yourself using art, dance, or music. Some occupations usually held by a right-brained person are forest ranger, athlete, beautician, actor/actress, craftsman, and artist.
37% | Linear (Your most dominant characteristic) |
31% | Sequential |
25% | Symbolic |
25% | Logical |
20% | Verbal |
20% | Reality-based (Your least dominant characteristic) |
Your Right Brain Percentages
55% | Concrete (Your most dominant characteristic) |
45% | Random |
44% | Nonverbal |
20% | Intuitive |
18% | Holistic |
16% | Fantasy-oriented (Your least dominant characteristic) |
yes i agree with the results of the test.
'right brained' means the right side of your brain controls the left side .
'left brained' means the left side of your brain controls the right side.
what i think of the test and its accuracy is that you really won't know if your one or the other just by takeing a test.

Mozart's death
Mozart fell ill while in Prague for the premiere on 6 September of his opera La clemenza di Tito, written in 1791 on commission for the Emperor's coronation festivities. He was able to continue his professional functions for some time, and conducted the premiere of The Magic Flute on 30 September. The illness intensified on 20 November, at which point Mozart became bedridden, suffering from swelling, pain, and vomiting.Mozart was nursed in his final illness by Constanze and her youngest sister Sophie, and attended by the family doctor, Thomas Franz Closset. It is clear that he was mentally occupied with the task of finishing his Requiem. However, the evidence that he actually dictated passages to his student Süssmayr is very slim. Mozart died at 1 am on 5 December 1791 at age 35. he was buried in a common grave, in accordance with contemporary Viennese custom.

Contemporary history describes the span of historic events that are immediately relevant to the present time.The term is usually associated with art in which the traditions of the past have been thrown aside in a spirit of experimentation. It extends roughly from 1860s to the 1970s. It began with the painters Vicent Van Gogh, Paul Cezanna, Pual Gauguin, and Georges Seurat.
