For the first blog review, I did agree with the images used for elements and principles. It was evident that this peer reading the materials prior to choosing her images for the project. I was able to identify certain details in the images that can depict why it could be an element or principle. Far as project #2, there were not images the same as mine because we did not attend the same art gallery. The images that were chosen were of a different interest than mine but they were eye catching images. For the second blog review, I was unsure of which project was the elements and principles because there were two postings that had the same images from the art museums visit. However, the artworks that were captured from the art visit where very powerful and represented a reflection of emotions in several ways. I also thought that the artworks represented symbolic meaning such as religious or emotional. Far as project #2, there were not images that were the same as mine, however, this peer did mention choosing artwork that she had more of a connection with. I personally usually choose images that I have a connection with or that I can try reading the meaning from.

The images from peer 2 project #2 with the hand reaching towards the sky is the main piece that I felt a connection with and curious to know what the meaning or inspiration of the painting is for the artist. I felt a spiritual connection with the painting because I was able to connect the contrast of the skies to my religious beliefs. I also felt a sense of peace looking at the image because listening or reading religious scriptures typically calms my mood and I felt the artwork portrayed that image for me. I thought reading my peers reflection was important to a certain extent, because there were images that I was curious to know why they chose it or what their ideas about the artwork were. It could be important for the learning process to make connections with others point of view and being open-minded about the process of art. I also did find my peers comments on my blogs helpful as well because I spend time and thought to complete these assignments.
