Piece Of Art Early In The Morning
918 words
Throughout time there has been at least one
constant that I am aware of. That constant is art.
One particular piece of art stands out and catches
the eye. That piece of art is The Shepherdess and
Her Flock constructed and perfected by Jean
Francois Millet. When one makes a certain judgment
on a piece of art, one must be precise and certain
about that judgment. When observing Millet's piece
I will take in to consideration three things to
make my judgment: use of color, theme, and
meaning. The She...

Billion Years Ago Carbon Dioxide

Our understanding and our modern perception of our
solar system, the Milky Way, has been drastically
reshaped from the corresponding perception of only
a few hundred years ago. Our Solar System, the
Milky Way is probably about 4 - 5 billion years
old. Only in the last 400 years or so have we
realized that the earth is not the "center", and
that in the Universe alone there is an immense 200
billion "Suns" in a galaxy like our own. Although
the origin of the solar system is uncertain, most

Miles Per Hour Warm Air

Weather is the condition of the air that surrounds
the earth. Weather affects our lives in many ways;
for example, the type of clothing that we wear any
given day depends largely on the weather. If it is
cold we put on slacks, if it is hot we slip on
shorts. The United States has to deal with the

Chlorofluorocarbons Cfcs Ozone Depleting
1,295 words
The ozone layer is one of the oldest things on the
planet, older than any of the ancient creatures we
see in our museums today. The ozone layer has
provided protection for the living components
under it for millions of years, and without the
ozone layer, we most likely would not be here
today. Our evolution would have been cut off
millions of years ago without our planets ability
to provide protection from the ever-harmful rays
from our sun. Each year since the late 1970 s much

Dejection An Ode Separation From His Imaginative Soul Nature
599 words
William Wordsworth's, Ode: Intimations of
Immortality is what inspired his friend, Samuel
Coleridge, to write Dejection: An Ode. The
connection the two writers have with nature is
their method of nature to express the feelings of
their inner soul. Coleridge was in a state of
sadness, confusion, and separation from his
imaginative soul when he composed Dejection: An
Ode. The separation from the imaginative soul
which Coleridge feels is similar to the separation
that Wordsworth observed between ma...

Water Lily Pond By Monet

Water Lily Pond by Monet Over the years there have
been many respectable artists, however, one of the
most famous of these artists Claude Oscar Monet
always stood alone and was ultimately determined
to follow his own solid road of experimentation
and significant tradition of impressionism. With

them beyond the instant forms. Monet created his
