My experience of bloggs

Hello everyone

Today I'm going to talk about my experience of writing blogs. Well, my experience was very good because I think that I improve my knowledge in English. I notice that in every blog session writing the blog was easier and took me less time to do it. It is very important to know how to write in English.

There were very funny subjects along the whole semester, but the funniest to me was the blog about the best birthday that I had, because it was very different of the normally subjects in English’ class.

Also, I like to write about the monsters of my childhoods, because it was funny to remember the things that make me scary and had nightmares when I was a little girl, for example the movies of Freddy Krueger, the exorcist and Poltergeists.

To me writing blogs in English was very challenging, because the difficulty was increasing blog after blog, for example the complexity of the matter, the number of words, etc and to me English, specially writing is very difficult, but actually I like to write in English a lot and I would like to do it better.

Well, that was my experience of blogging this semester.

Bye bye.

My best birthday

My birthday is November 8, I was born in 1988 and I have 26 years old. Today, I will tell you about the best birthday I ve ever had.
Well, I do not usually celebrate my birthday, but I remember when I was a child I had a nice birthday, because it was a surpise. I thing I was 6 or 7 years old, and the thing is to arrive at school in the afternoon, I saw in the door balloons and I understood that was a surprise. And then between my family was waiting for me.
Later , my mom changed my clothes, and I remember it was a sweatsuit of color violet with pink.
this birthday. That birthday I loved it because it was a surprise.

Also, I have had other good birthdays, for example when I turned 21 or 22 years old, because they invited my old friends to my home, my school friends; Fabian, Pablo, Emilio, Romina, Sebastian, etc. Those birthdays were average but had a good time.

In recent years I have not celebrated my big birthdays, but always with my family celebrated with something small, such as with a cake and tea.

I hope you have had very good birthdays.
bye bye :)

My works an artist

The people think that art is not necessary to live, is unusable and is true!!! I think the same but the art is only to be happy. Im so happy artist and also I think in my future, sometimes I feell fear but is not terrible, because with sacrifice we can do many things.

Many people like art, but do not engage in this. too many people admire artists, but also, some people hate art. well, there is everything in life.

I have the luck of study that I love and I know that not be sorry.

Now, is my 4 year of carrer. The next year I like study pedagogy arts, in 1 year. Before I Like the tesis, but the important is my speciality: the "paint" and  the drawing, because is that I love and I want follow painting for ever, follow progress in art, for example body study, the human figure, work follow the colors, the contrast, lights and shadow, the volume, the form, etc...  I would also  like to work with other things and materials.

Well, I hope I can achieve all my expectations.

Francis Bacon

 

Francis Bacon

Francis Bacon is a Irland artist, he was an figurative painter. The principal aspect of his art is the raw imagery and emotionally charged, also the abstract painting its present in his works.

Francis made his first works from 1929. He did watercolor, gouaches, oils and draws.

In 1930 he work in London as an interior decorator and designer of modern furniture.

The work “ Three Studies for figures at the base of a cricifixion” ( triptic ) was the painting that marking the beginning of his mature artistic career. This finish work was in 1944.

I like the artist because I think that his works is daring and different. The Bacon works was reject, but later and now is recognized and appreciate for the form and style.

I think that Bacon works and talent is unique. I like so much the darks colors in the paint, the crazy ideas, the abstraction, the form, the draw, the lights, etc. Is for this that I admire to Bacon.

Well. This is a famous Bacon painting.

Bye bye.
