For this activity we looked some scientists or theorists who have changed the world. They introduced these theories about things and how they work, mostly from close observation. Off of that, we were asked to choose one of two paintings to observe it and describe what we see in as much detail. The two pictures were "Day and Night" by MC Escher, and "The Starry Night" by Vincent van Gogh. So I went with the painting I hadn't seen before.

ReplyDeleteHi Victoria,
ReplyDeleteI liked how you described the painting as almost like an illusion. I found it interesting that you chose the painting that you hadn't seen before. Would you want to become an artist like Van Gogh and Escher?
