Reflection on Week 1-5
First I did a research on a painting, which is "The Flower Carrier", I think the painting is interesting, and there are some meaningful stories behind the painting, so I chose the painting, and I did research on it, you can see my work in my blog also (if you are interested).
I also made a survey for my teachers and friends to fill in in the "comprehension stage", it's about art and drawing, because my topic is about art. Most of my teachers and friends helped my with filling the survey, most of the people have different answers and opinion, but I think it's still a very important information for me to know.
Now I am preparing for the next stage, which is "Application" and I think I will record my voice, make a short presentation, and I think I will upload it in internet.
Now I should prepare my presentation, so see you next time.

*The Flower Carrier*
Our featured painting by Diego Rivera is The Flower Carrier. Notice the bold, bright colors he uses. With the use of shadows he makes the subject stand out from the background of the painting almost as if the figures are outlined. How does he repeat the colors? Compare the size of the man to the size of the woman. The man is carrying the heavy load, but he appears to be a smaller person than the woman putting the load on his back.
Diego Rivera ( de A go rih VEH rə) was born in Guanajuato, Mexico in 1886. He had a twin brother, but his brother died when he was only a year and a half old. His mother became depressed and sent little Diego to live with his nurse Antonia, an Indian woman. She cared for him in a small village high up on the mountain.
When he was six years old Diego's family moved to Mexico City. Diego loved to draw and his father made a studio for him by covering the walls with black canvas on which he could draw with chalk. He loved drawing soldiers, but he was not destined to be a soldier. He was sent to military school at age 10, but only stayed for a short time.
He enrolled in evening art classes at the San Carlos Academy of Fine Arts in Mexico City. He studied there for five years , but was later expelled for participating in student revolts at the school. These experiences were only the beginning of the controversy which would surround Rivera throughout his life. At age 16 he left and started his career as a painter.
Summary:
The painting, The Flower Carrier, is a painting that used very bright color, and it really make the subject stand out from the other part of the drawing. The man who carried the bucket seems to be smaller then the women behind who seems to be loading stuff on the man.
Diego Revera was born in Guanajuato, Mexica in 1886. He had a twin brother, but he was dead, and he had a sister but she was also dead when he was 6. His mother sent him to live with the nurse because she was depressed.
He moved to Mexico when he was 6, Diego loved drawing, his father made a studion the wall was covered with black canvas, and so he could draw on it with chalk. He liked drawing soldiers, but his destiny is not being a solider. He went to the military school at 10, but didn’t stay there for too long.
He joint the art class at San Carlos Academy of Fine Arts, studied for 5 years, but being expelled because he joint the student revolt at school. He started his carrier as painter at the age of 16.
Who? Painter: Deigo Rivera
What? Painting: A man and a woman
When? 1935
Where? It’s in the “San Francisco Museum of Modern Art” now
What?
This article is about a famous painting “The Flower Carrier” and a painter name Deigo Rivera, a short part of his early life.
How?
It’s oil and tempera on Masonite, which is a kind of board.
Why?
I think he wants to express his feeling through drawing, and this painting is just his opinion about the community, because this painting has some special meaning in it. From what I’ve researched, it says that flower is a symbol of luxurious, but the flower carrier wouldn’t see that, because they are not “use values” but “exchange values”.
Personal opinion:
I think the painting is very beautiful, and it’s very meaningful, I think it’s a really nice painting, because the color is not very bright, but it’s clear and bold, and it’s really detailed, so I like this drawing.

Term break--> March 26~ April 4
In the first day of the holiday, which is March 26, I was on the mountain because I had an expedition trip starting Friday. We started walking at about 9:30. We walked 10 km at that day, and I arrived home at 7:30.
The next day, my family and I went to the mall, to do some shopping.
After that I stayed at home for 2 days and I went to Bandung on Wednesday.
Actually it's because my brother and I was finding a game.
On Thursday I got a hair cut, and it's really short.
I didn't go out until Sunday. We went to mall to shop.
The last day of holiday, I stayed home to finish up my home works.
It was a really relaxing holiday, even though is short, but I think I get enough rest.

Introducing myself (edited)
Drawing is my favorite thing to do since I was very small, even though I’m not really good at drawing. I think drawing is fun, and I think pictures can express my feelings better then long stories or lots of words.
Cooking is one of my favorite things to do, and I also like baking cookies and making cakes. I like making sweets very much, because I actually REALLY love sweets! Something like chocolate, cake, some cookies or candies, so I also like making it by myself.
So…this is pretty much things all there is to say about me.
See you next time!♡ヽ(●´∀`●)ノ☆
