something that i found intresting in Art hisotry class that ties into ealuating English-113 poems!

I have an Art history class and we are learning how to evaluate art the correct way. Today during Art history realized that evaluating visual art is a lot like evaluating a poem. Like a painting with your first glance your going to view it as well, what it is or what you physical see, is how your going to view it. But once you understand a little about the authors back ground and the time format you become more familiar with the artist or the writers "prefered" style. And as you continue to evaluate the painting or the poem certain things began to pop out at you that you didn't notice before. So you began to explore and you realize that the painting or poem some how expresses something personal to you. I think that it's amazing how Art can effect anyone if they just start with the right mindset and search in to it with a non-biased eye.
