Human Condition: Guernica

Pablo Picasso's Guernica displays the human condition by demonstarting war and it's negative effects on people and their lives.

Human Behavior: Rebellion.

Specifically teenage rebellion. Specifically as seen in the movie Thirteen, the movie The Breakfast Club and the book The Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger.

My photographic eye.

Like the song from The Sound of Music... These are a few of my favorite things. :)

Going to the beach with my husband.


Sunsets.


Mascara.


Catching my kittens do silly things.


Giving blood.

Violet.

This pretty little flower was growing out of a tree trunk in my back yard.

I love this blog.

Wish jar! Explorations of the familiar.
Written by Keri Smith.

She's an artist and blogs her art, which is all pretty unique. She also has interesting and random opinions about everything. She has this neat list of 100 things to do everyday, especially if you have an art journal.

I like:
27. Read a story out loud to a friend. Cause even though I'm grown and in college, sometimes I and my best friend since elementary school tell each other bedtime stories.

Ugh. Catharsis. Now.

I'm feeling ridiculously overwhelmed this semester! It's like no matter how I manage my time, I still don't have enough time to do anything to completion. I'll be glad when Christmas break rolls around!

AH!

*yells really loud*

<---- How I feel almost every day.

Cold Mountain is definitely a work of art.

A father and a daughter arrive in Cold Mountain, a small town in North Carolina. Inman meets Ada and they instantly like each other, though they speak little. At his first chance to fight in the war between the North and the South, Inman kisses Ada and leaves. The war lasts for 3 long years. The South has lost, and the soldiers who try to return are considered traitors and are ordered to be killed. Inman tries his hardest to return to Ada, but he is considered a traitor and is killed almost immediately after he is reunited with Ada.

Coupled with the love story is the beautiful soundtrack and the setting of the Blue Ridge mountains.
