Website for art student

Website for art student A website related to my studies is HA! (Historia del Arte), and its link is  https://historia-arte.com/ . Is a website where you can find information about art history periods, its exponents and works. In its home page, you will find suggestions of works to see, and if you select one, it will take you to information about the piece of art, the year in which it was developed, its context and author. At the same time, it gives you more suggestions as you are doing click, so you can navigate between works of art and their stories. But if someone is looking for something in particular, can write it in the search bar. I always visit this website when a have to do one theoretical work for the university, because if i write in google what i'm looking for, always appears this page among results, and i know that there i'll find something of what i need. Well, as most of my chores are practical, because i study plastic arts and i mainly do manual works, i d...

My favorite artist

Imagen
My favorite artist There are several artists that i like, which are mostly painters, because it is actually the area of art i know most. And what attracts me the most in painting, is when it is painted in large formats, when it envelops you, you can watch it in motion and go discovering in its corners more and more elements. The muralists are the artists who most call my attention and although i have a favorite, i would like to talk about Julio Escámez. Escamez was a Chilean painter and engraver  of the province of Arauco,  born on November 15th, 1925. His work was very marked by the influence of Mexican artists exponents of Muralism,  which are also subjects of admiration. He studied arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Concepción, then in Santiago at the University of Chile. He also obtained a scholarship to study the technique of fresco mural painting. He shares the idea that painting should be something that everyone can see, so his work...

My favorite Movie

My favorite movie... I find it hard to think of a favorite movie, because I like many movies, but there are some that I can see many times without getting bored. I really like the saga of X-men, these must be my favorite movies,  all of them. Must be because every time i see her again, i discover something i had not seen before that serves me to understand, because they are so many and so tangled.  The first is of 2000, when i was barely two years old if not less, and continue to be released until today. Began to like me for my older brother, who was a fanatic of X-men, and Marvel's general fan.  I like it because in a way, those alternative realities are based on scientific fundamentals, and you could imagine that it is possible. They are made with a great power of imagination, one wonders how could all that happen? I haven't read the comics of any Marvel super hero, but  i admire the mind so much that he could create all that. ...

I going to talk about my favorite tecnological tool i frequently work in computer, to make digital image, to paint drawings and posters for activities. But i wanna talk about somethig more than computer, although that makes life most easy and fun sometimes. There something that help in this work,  next to computer. I use a graphic tablet for work in the computer, like a mouse but with more possibilities. this connects with computer an it's like a book where you can draw and write with a special pencil, and image is appearing in the  screen. I use it very much, everytime that i need work in photoshop,for example, or in some similar program, and those ocassions are often. At the beginnig it was difficult to use for me, accustomed  to paper. But i have gone getting used and i dominate it increasingly. In addition to be useful, it is really fun for do beautiful digital works like it's a canvas to paint, for that i like it so much.    without...

Why i chose plastic arts

Imagen
Why i chose plastic arts I wanted to be so many things, really. But all of those were of the typical dreams of girl. I wanted to be dancer, it is the first that i remember, i loved dancing, and i still love it, but at the time i liked dancing ballet. That time is past, now i only dance cumbia or salsa. Also i thought to be astronomer because i liked see to stars and i believed that was all there was to do. And i wanted to be teacher of music too. At the moment that i had to apply to university, i was between plastic arts, pedagogy in arts, or architecture, i don't remember well. But before, in the last year of school, i was not so sure about art, because also i liked maths and i thought that i could do something whit that. Finally i decided one night of winter holidays, i was up all night painting and painting nonstop to eat. then i said my self  that is what i wanted to do in my studies: spend whole nights painting. Now i just wanna sleep, please, more than three hours. I h...

My name is Tania. I am from Santiago de chile, i was born there in the center of city. But we had to move to field because my sister, one year older than me, began to get sick for the pollution. So i live in San Jose de Maipo since i was little. Always attracted me things of arts, be working with my hands and create images for communicate my ideas. But i thought leave the art like a hobby, and study something that give me more income. My teacher of maths always said me that i had to study something with sciences, and i really believed in that. Some night, in the last vacation of winter before entering to university, i spent hours painting. Many nights one after the other. Then i thought that if i can sacrifice my hours of sleep for something more, i can dedicate my life in that. I get into university to study plastics arts, with support of my family. My family is my two parents, and my two siblings. we are so unite. Besides study, I take part in politic and cultural organization...
