Description
There’re eleven stars in this picture. The back ground is painted with dark tone and it gives the image of night. Below the night sky, there is a town and its left side is tower-like figure. The lines are curvy; the shapes are organic; textures seem smooth. Colors are harmony with dark and light.
Analysis
The space seems tight and cropped.
The space seems spacious and leisurely. The left tower-like figure catches viewer’s eyes on it and naturally the point of view starts from it. Shading and shadows also seem to be used; the mixtures of colors are very prominent. On top of that, tower-like figure and the moon is places in juxtaposition and it rules the moods of the work.
Technique
The artist painted his picture with the energetic strokes, the vibrant colors of the stars against the dark blues and blacks of the night
Interpretation
A cedar which rise high on the left side and a village on the middle side are well-matched each other and give us the sense of distance. This ciew of the village looks peaceful and bright stars in the sky look cheerful and dynamic.

midterm-exam!

You can't connect the dots looking forwards; you can only connect them looking backwards.
So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
You have to trust in something-your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever-because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well-worn path, and that will make all the difference.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
Don't be trapped by dogma-which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.

And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
