1. What were you expectations for this course and where they met?
I expected to learn more about the concept of Art, and to better understand how art is made. Yes, I would say my expections were satisfied immensely.
2. Now that you've been through this course, What is art? How would you define it now compared to your intial posting?
I think my initial response to what art is still stands, however I feel I have a much better understanding of what it entails. Art is anything created by mankind, whether that be through a statue, sculpture, painting, or photograph and is something that can be shared with others portrayed visually that can be appreciated by others and evoke an emotional response in its viewers.
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?
My favorite artist at the beginning of the semester was Vincent Van Gogh, however after seeing some of Claude Monet's painting in the Albright Knox art gallery, I've come to appreciate Monet painting a bit more, considering his style of painting and the immense detail within them. I must have stared at Monet's painting of "Water Lilies" appreciating every detail for at least 10 minutes. I think I have appreciated painting techniques more since the start of this class, and different elements of art now stand out more to me than before.
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?
Yes my answer remains the same. I have taken several online courses before in the past, and am registered for more this upcoming fall semester. I enjoy them because of my chaotic work schedule and I can get to the classes whenever is convenient for me, even if it is 1130 at night.
