Hi everyone, I am Thompson from Wenzhou, China. <\/span> I am a second year Computer Science student at TWU. <\/span> I am taking this course because it is one of my core course and I hope that my appreciation of art and my eye for beauty will be enhanced. <\/span><\/p>\n

1. <\/span> How did the videos challenge your ideas about art and drawing? <\/span> \u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

I quite agree with Ralph Armer that painting is not meant to be a work of art, painting has many other functions that can help us become better.\u00a0<\/span> Painting is also the first language we master. <\/span> Before everyone learns to express complex sentences, the time is ripe for them to express with a brush.\u00a0<\/span> When they grow up, for whatever reason, most people stop picking up a pen.\u00a0<\/span> Painting is the only creative hobby we leave behind as we grow older.\u00a0<\/span> We are taught that painting is a gift from God to some people that we ordinary people will never learn.\u00a0<\/span> Painting is really a great thing, it brings us a lot of benefits, this video has changed my view of painting and art. <\/span><\/p>\n

2. <\/span> How could drawing or thinking like an artist help you in your daily life? <\/span><\/p>\n

Drawing plays an important role in our lives and helps us in different ways. <\/span> For example, drawing helps us remember the good things, the people we meet, the things that pass by in life but that you want to remember. <\/span> You can choose to draw these things, unlike writing them down, drawing is easier to understand and clearer than words. <\/span> Drawing helps me design new and innovative things, and it will express the ideas in my head clearly. <\/span> I think if I record the new and strange things in my life every day and then put these drawings together, it is the best art work. <\/span> Maybe words can\u2019t express our imagination and creativity well, but painting can. <\/span> Drawing gives a direct visual impact, for example, we combine what our friend likes with his habits, which is a great gift. <\/span> Painting is really helpful in life, we don\u2019t need to be talented or artistic to paint, anyone can create a world with a brush. <\/span><\/p>\n

3. <\/span> What is one specific area mentioned in the videos that you would like to grow\u00a0in during this class? <\/span><\/p>\n

I want to expand the field of imagination in this class. <\/span> I want to combine two ideas in my head into one new thing by practicing drawing in this class. <\/span> Sometimes I will have some faint inspiration, but I don\u2019t know how I should express it through art or painting. <\/span> For example, when I was designing covers and pictures for my software, I didn’t know how to assign them the position and color. <\/span> I also don’t know how to arrange the various patterns to make my whole design look attractive. <\/span> So I can use the skills and knowledge I have learned in this class to achieve what I want. <\/span> I think drawing still needs constant practice and familiarity to make my ideas clearer, so I hope to develop that knowledge in this class.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
