•  Hello and welcome to my blog! ( I sincerely hope you get the joke that is the URL.) I am a second-ish year UAF student focusing on a degree in Elementary Education. I enjoy spending time adventuring in the outdoors spending quality time with friends. I grew up in Alaska and love every aspect of it. My hobbies include snowboarding, camping, biking and just about any other activity that gets me out in nature. 


  • I love all art that involves many colors. I would say that I am a very artistic person, in the way that I like to express myself in my art. I enjoy creating digital art and designing clothing and throwing ceramics. I find ceramics a very fun and enjoyable way to create art because of the color scheme that is attainable, and the surprise of never knowing how a glaze is going to turn out, and the way that the glazes mix and blur, as seen in the picture above. 




    Thanks for checking out my blog.

    You might get more traffic with that URL. I had to look up why it was a joke. Beautiful coffee cup. I would totally like to have a coffee cup like that.

    Love the reference in the url!
    I'm also a big fan of ceramics and how glazes shift and change and mix as they bake in the kiln, it makes seeing the end result for the first time always exciting.

Art and Scientific Discovery in the 1700’s

 1700's Art Around the 1700s is when art changed for the people. It was no longer only for the rich or royalty  but was accessible to many. Access to art supplies also became much more common, allowing more and more people be able to express themselves through painting. The ways of the universe also started to reveal itself to humankind. People started to learn about space, and the stars, and even cell structures. This opened up a whole new world for what artists could portray. For instance, before the microscope was invented, a painting of cells would look completely abstract, but with that microscopic understanding, a psychedelic and seemingly random painting of cells became scientific knowledge. Benjamin Franklin Drawing Electricity from the Sky 1816 Benjamin West While this art piece was not painted during the 1700s, it was depicting one of the most important moments that happened in the 1700s. It shows the iconic time when Ben Franklin got a kite struck by lightning. West recr

APPRECIATION OF ART

     This is Dragon Sculpture by Hung Yi. It is in New Taipei City in Taiwan and was finished in 2018. I love every aspect of it. From the color to the shape, to me, it seems like it radiates some "psychadelic energy" and I very much enjoy that and hope to see it one day. The main two artistic elements that I see in this beautiful piece by Yi are the contrast of colors and the form taken by this sculpture, with the flowing curves of the body blending together. I like how the contrast of so many colors makes this an immediate eye-catcher, added to the already large and eye-catching nature of the sculpture. If I could own a copy of this it would be amazing, I would put it in front of my house one day. I really like the brightness, or high value, of this work of art, and how you could not miss it even if you tried. Yi really did an amazing job making the lines flow together in the pattern, and the 3D shape is smooth and even, allowing the entire sculpture to flow from nose to ta
