Student art show

             In side the student union building the first picture I was that captured my focus was Charles Lamb's “ War is yellow” (65PH). It’s a photography that contains a biohazard sign, gas mask, a toy soldier, and what appears to be some sort of gas. This picture was medium size with a yellow mustard tint to it, hence the title war is yellow”. I think what intrigued me the most was how real it felt. We live in a society where we are constantly looking over our shoulders to whether other countries have nuclear weapons. The toy soldiers on both sides of the picture gives it a feel of reality of some sort. The second picture that called my attention was Chris Beaman's Music Room at Talieson (6DW). This sketch won 1st place at the art exhibit. This drawings was made by pencil marks of light and dark shading. Such detail and time was put into this sketch and can be seen by its clear straight lines and glossy look of the piano. Music has had such an impact in me that I feel attracted to anything music related such as the drawing.
