7.2 class
Journal 7.2
I thought that my WP2 went pretty well, i believe that i had plenty of previous knowledge for the prompt which made writing the essay much easier. I liked the idea of us choosing our own topics which ignites an interest so we get more involved with what we read and write. I was very happy with my sources, because my topic was prostitution it was very interesting to see all the disciplines that had something to say about it. I really liked how i found an article from a woman in the actual sex industry, it was more real life based than studies and observations. Overall i felt that my paper is flowing because i made sure i connected sentences and used transition words that kept the reader on track with my claims.
When we peer edited i though sort knew going into it that my i ended up writing something completely different from my thesis and didn't bother to go back and correct it. So beatrice commented to make my thesis more specific and give the reader a clear idea of what is to come. Beatrice also advised me to readings into my paper because it gives it for purpose and makes it seem like i know what i'm talking about.

Video Response:
Emphasizes the brush stroke and the hand technique that the painter needs in order to paint the natural landscape properly and accurately. Advises the amount of pressure one needs to apply to give sharp edges.
-many adjectives to describe movements of the hand and brush (wiggle, overkill, back and forth,
- lol Bob Ross assumes that everyone know there is 500 branches on an evergreen tree *i didn't*
- Both disney and Bob Ross take in consideration movement and how real life events influence how images move and ultimately interact with its landscape.
- both disney and bob ross consider timing, from instance when disney draws the setting for sleeping beauty they were aware of the old kingdom era and drew appropriately. Whereas Bob Ross thinks about timing in the aspect of daylight, for example the way sun shadows the evergreen tree.
My attention is constantly directed to the colors and the artist's ability to project such pretty pictures.
Disney often uses similes to describe natural features, but is very heavily influenced by archaeological terms.
- They see all the richness that nature has to offer and choose to view it with respect that one would give a human being.
- Family Guy personifies the bush giving it humor to a younger audience. And it also overexaggerates the connection and relationship that bob ross creates with viewer at home
- Bob Ross has such a relaxed confident energy that translates to his style, he goes slow so people have a chance to digest the information as well talks about painting as a deity.
- Disney artists are all very intelligent and are clearly aware of keen on painting according to accuracy or the fairytale or time period.
I like the different moves you pointed out while watching the painting videos! I had some of the same ones but didn't even think about the timing of the painting. The way you described the aspect of daylight was very interesting to me. Do you think there are other moves more specific to his paintbrushes and how he uses them? Other than Bob Ross's style, do you think there is something else that he is trying to draw the attention to from his audience? Is there a specific part of his painting style that you think draws the most attention?
