I love your picture! :)

Your pic is awsome!!!

=__MORE EXTRA CREDIT__ = ==**Anthony Hopkins--->** I went to the Higgins art gallery here in Honolulu. I was quite surprised to see some of Anthony Hopkins pieces showing. I marveled at most of them and was quite intrigued. They almost remind me of Van Gogh a little-because it was an art gallery they would not allow photographs so I went on to his website and found some! :) enjoy==

==__**Unknown street artist in Honolulu---**__>This dude was awesome. First for all of you that dont know I'm currently in Honolulu Hawaii. I walked past this dude last night. He draws these aawesome letters from different pics like the one beneath. He does it on t-shirts as well as paper. He frames it too, and that looks super neat. I have some more art work from my hotel that I'll post later. All sorts of art here though, from stained glass stuff to galleries filled with island type artwork. I'm on my way to the beach, I'm going to try and snag some more pics of diff art. Aloha! :-)==

ASSIGNMENT #1
==is a work of art depicting mostly inanimate subject matter, typically common objects which may be either natural (food, flowers, plants, rocks, or shells) or man-made (drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, pipes, and so on). I remember drawing my hand in my drawing and painting class in High School and it actually turned out awesome. . pretty surprised with that. . . :) ==

==The art of "Sand Fantasy" was created for certain song lyrics and themes. Some of the clip messages are presented as a story created by sand. The Sand Art clip is not only created as a song's main message and spirit, but is also synchronized with the rhythm and music. I thought this was awesome, I like how they can recreate different pics with the use of the old ones yet. == ==Art made from recycled material; cardboard, plastic bottles, cigarettes, newspaper.=sustainable!!!:) == ==[] == ==Art made from latte foam-awesome :) I'm a barista at the campus coffee shop so I really enjoyed this:) ==

==Julian Beever is an English chalk artist who has been creating chalk drawings on pavement surfaces since the mid-1990s. He uses a projection technique called anamorphosis to create the illusion of three dimensions when viewed from the correct angle. Some of these were hard to believe it was chalk. :) ==

==__**Personal Definition**__: I think Indian art is any kind of art encompassing our native culture.I think Indian art work tells the story and history of a group of people. Although it can be appreciated by anyone, it holds special meaning to the people who created it.==
