Blog#8-Future job/college

As I finish highschool this year, I plan to become a vet assistant as my future job or go for the animal care. The college in Brampton (Shariden College) has a course for one year in animal care and for two years of vet assistant. Before i head to college i plan to travel and explore the world and see if i really want to be in the animal care or maybe become an artist, media, etc in the art industry. By then my goal will be to get a horse and keep to my education unitl I get into the Animal care/hospital. I volunteer at a horse ranch and used to walk dogs at a animal shelter for experince with different kinds of animals. Therefore, it will be art or animal care.

Blog#7 Video games

http://www.gametab.com/images/ss/gcn/2705/box-l.jpg


Zelda Twilight Princess:

This Fantacy action pack game is filled with adventure and stories of fun for teenagers. The animation is very effective as well with 3-D form and no flat characters involved. The game is about a young man named link (elf), he is the "one" who has to save a princess named "zelda". It is only up too you on how you want to end the story with a happy or sad ending. Twilight Princess contains the same expertly designed puzzles and gameplay that you've come to expect, though parts of its presentation feel stuck in the past. Playing this game has excitement of it, example, turning yourself into a wolf or riding a horse in the game creates a good effect.

Blog #6 Photo i like

The photo is called "The Legend Lives On" and the person in the picture is named Lubbock cowboy and his horse in front of a spectacular West Texas sunset.

Critique:
Response: how i feel about this photo is longing to go to the ranch where i volunteer every weekend and a relationship between to befriends, working hard to gain better trust. The sunset ends a long days work and they spend there time together.
I see shadows of a horse on his two back leggs facing the cow boy, who is throwing around his lasso towards the horse. The back ground in of a sunset with the colours of pink, orange and light blue/purple. The title of the photo is "the legend lives on" down by an unknkown photographer but,
JOE GULICK AVALANCHE wrote an article about the picture and the picture was done with colour in the background. That this picture was tooken in texas and somewhere in the middle of a feild. This is a very powerful shot and has alot of meaning to what horsemanship means in a cowboys life. If I were in the picture i would love to in the cowboys position and experience what the cowboy is feeling/seeing.
The photo shows beauty, power, strength and spirit in a world. This photographer could of made this photo to show the wild side of texas and that a cowboy is just not a name but a role/responsability of being a rancher, that you need commitment. Yes the title does match the image (the legend lives on) because, even though the day has end tomorrow will bring a new day of work and creating a new story of excitement with his horse, like the movie "Eragon".

The picture is balanced with the horse and the cowboy and this picture i really realistic.
This photo interests me with the feeling of freedom with you and your horse.

Blog#5 banksy

The artist Banksy, born in 1976, well-known English graffiti artist from Bristol and his artwork is often political and/or humorous in nature, in the streets of london. Example of an art work would be "Are You Using That Chair?"Banksy, 2005. and his art deals with topics from politics, culture, and ethics. His street art, which combines graffiti with a typical stencilling technique, has appeared in London and in cities around the world of all countries. His purpose of art was created during the time of the great Bristol aerosol boom of the late 1980s, which gave him idea's to start creating these pieces. I think his work is interesting in some ways, that he uses proportion and colour to express his feelings during that time.
