Oil On Canvas Edouard Manet

Hunting Dogs by Jean-Did-Gustave Courbet is the
first painting I looked at and I was created in
1867. The painting is oil on canvas and the size
of it is 361 / 2 x 58 inch. Courbet paints two
dogs and a dead hare in the woods. The woods are
becoming dark and the sun is setting. The painting
is dark and gloomy except for the quarreling dogs
that the sun is directly setting on. With fine
brushstrokes he sets a depressing mood because of
the choice of dark colors. This picture is a very
good exampl...

Green Eyes Tragic Events

Never, never, never give up, was coined by Sir
Winston Churchill. This quote holds more meaning
than could ever be put into words. Everyday we are
faced with obstacles that occur in our lives. How
we manage these everyday occurrences make us not
only who we are, but also who we hope to become.
Nineteen hundred eight six was an exceptional year
filled with triumph and tragedy. May I never
forget lessons learned and innocence lost. Tragic
events do not preclude tragic outcomes. Leaving

Finally Realized Bright Light

It was a normal Tuesday for Ted Williams, on his
way to his job at 6: 30 in the morning. He has no
wife or children and his parents have recently
passed away. He is in a dead-end job that he
hates. He doesnt even know why he continues to
work there; maybe it is for the money or sense of
responsibility. Either way the job is very
degrading. His daily routine is very uniform. He
stops at his usual coffee stand for his
decaffeinated coffee and jelly donut for
breakfast. He then makes his way to the...

Early Childhood Learning Centers
1,020 words
The mission of public schooling is to offer every
child full and equal educational opportunity,
regardless of the background, education, and
income of his / her parent (s). To achieve this
goal, no time is as precious or as fleeting as the
first years of formal schooling. Research
consistently shows that children who get off to a
good start in reading rarely stumble. Those who
fall behind tend to stay behind for the rest of
their academic lives. Good teaching and a good
classroom reading program...

Vietnam War Air Strikes
1,235 words
Most people in our society think of the Vietnam
War as a tragedy, or a negative time in our
history that was later viewed as a misstep. These
comments are true and most-certainly conventional.
However, does the average person realize how large
of an impact it had on the men who fought? When
questioned on the Vietnam War, it can be rightly
assumed that many Americans would know that it
lasted over a decade. Maybe even a few would know
that over 14, 000 U. S. troops were killed in
1968, alone, (Ap...

Piece Of Paper Lottery Ticket

The beggar dashed away from the cart with is heart
pumping and feet feeling as though two shoes of
lead had been branded around them. His breath was
short and his head filled with contempt for his
own being. He ran non-stop to his friends waiting
two blocks away in an abandoned ally. He ran not
for himself but for his friends, as they had done
time after time for him. The bread that he had
stole was not a meal for one, but a meal for
three. The only meal that most would see for two
days, and tha...

Cared For Animals Abandoned Lioness Daniel

An abandoned lioness cub, alone, frightened,
scared and cold, yet still holding to life like a
drop of water holding to the granite stalactite of
a lonely cave, in the darkness of despair. The cub
crawls to a nearby barn where it stays and waits
out the storm. But stays longer than expected.
Daniel cared for animals, almost too much and that
was why he was in the barn that fateful night,
during the unusually heavy summer storm. The cub
collapsed just as Daniel got close. He picked her

Good Or Evil Good And Evil
1,256 words
The difference in the way humans perceive things
is part of the complexity of mankind. What is
thought of as evil to one person can be seen as
good to another, and vice versa. The issue of good
and evil is brought up in William Golding's Lord
of the Flies, when innocent boys are set on an
island to bear the weight of society on their
backs. What happens to them? How do past
influences effect them? Are their actions good or
evil? The actions of the boys were not a matter of
being good or evil, bu...

several videotapes dealing with the serious
subject of drunk driving. After watching these
tapes, I would like to recommend the one story
that I consider the best. I would like everyone
who drives a car to see it. I think the story
about Bruce Kimble, entitled The Aftermath is the
best one on the videotapes because of its strong
emotional impact. It shows how innocent people
suffer from the actions of a drunk driver. In this

The Leonis Adobe was built in stages; however, who
and when the original portion of it was built is
still under research. At first, there appears to
have been a simple adobe farmhouse with
whitewashed walls. This original portion of the
house is believed to date back to 1844, and if
this is so it is almost certain that Leonis did
not build it. In any event, about 1880 he
extensively enlarged and remodeled the house into
the gracious Monterey style mansion you see today,
and he and Espirtu moved ...
