2. When looking at Project #1: (Elements and Principles), did you agree with the element or principle the artist listed with the images? Did you see other elements and principles in the images?

In Blog #1, I am not sure how Dylan did with connecting the elements and principles of art with his photos because when I go to his Photobucket page I cannot see elements he used for I can't see his titles. His photos were decent though and the cookie photo looks tasty. My favorite photo he took was the photo of fireworks because I love the lighting and the value in the photo. 

In Blog #2, Kelly did a excellent job with connecting the elements and principles of art with her photos. The photos were spot on with the principles and elements. I could add some more elements and principles to a few of his photos because her photos were just that good. Kelly seems very on top of it and organized, too, with this project and I think she did a really good job with it.

3. When looking at Project #2: Where there any images in the Peer Blogs the same as your own? If yes, what were they? Where the reasons the image was selected the same or different as your own?

In Blog #1, although I did view the Vega-Nor at the museum, I did not chose that to write about in my posting. None of our images were the same.

In Blog #2, none of our images were the same.

4. Where there any images that your Peers selected that pique your interest now? If yes, what are they and what is your connection with them? What would you want to know about them?

In Blog #1, I like the art piece Music and Literature, 1878 that Dylan included in his blog post. I want to learn more about this piece of art because my connection with it is how I love how abstract it looked. This piece of art looks so interesting honestly and I want to see what it is more about.

In Blog #2, I like the art piece Andy Warhol, 100 cans because pop art has always been so interesting and aesthetically pleasing to me. I love pop art. I think this piece in specific is interesting because of how plain it is, yet so vibrant and loud. I love that about this piece.

5. What do you think about  the process of reading your peers reflection? Do you find this to be a valuable in your learning?

I find peer evaluations and reflections important because it gives me an insight on how others are doing in the class. I also like getting feedback on my art and blog postings because it gives me a sense of what others are thinking about my work/thoughts. It is valuable in learning because peer interaction, especially over an online course, is extremely helpful.

6. Check your Blog and read comments posted by your Peers. Do you find their comments helpful?

I have received my comments and yes, I do find their comments extremely informative and helpful. It is very nice getting feedback and it is what I need to continue happily! I like getting comments on my work.
