1. What were your expectations for this course and where they met?
- Looking back at the first blog posting and discussion board I made, my expectations were definitely met within the course. The expectations I had involved inquiring as much about art as I could possibly learn. I wanted to learn art history, applying art, how one can become an artist, etc. The topics and work done throughout the course allowed me to gain the knowledge I now have regarding the curiosity of the questions asked.
2. Now that you've been through this course, What is art? How would you define it now compared to your intial posting?
- Now that I've been through this course, I would define art in a similar instance as my inital posting. Art being, a creative skill of imagination for indivudals to express themselves emotionally, mentally and spirtually.
3. Who was your favorite artist in your original posting and who is your favorite visual artist now? If there is a difference, why do you think so? If you have the same favorite artist, why do you think so?
- In my initial posting, my favorite artist states an African American painter named Bou Bou. Now, my favorite visual artist includes the African American painter Kara Walker. The biggest difference between the two is the fact that Bou Bou is a free hand painter whereas Walker is a contemporary painter, silhouettist and print-maker. Her work really stands out to me since it is unlike anything I have ever seen and I love the statements being the works.
4. Now that you've completed this course, how do you feel about taking an online course? Is your answer the same as it was in your first posting? How is it the same or different?
- With the course now being completed, I enjoy taking online courses. There is some irony due to all of my classes switching to online learning, however it has not changed my perspective about taking an online course. I enjoy the flexibility of online courses, along with not having to focus on being on time to class and mandatory attendance. I've had nothing but good experiences.
