I see fire

Oh, misty eye of the mountain below
Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
Keep watching over Durin's sons

If this is to end in fire
Then we should all burn together
Watch the flames climb high into the night

Calling out father oh
Stand by and we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on
The mountain side

And if we should die tonight
Then we should all die together
Raise a glass of wine for the last time

Calling out father oh
Prepare as we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on
The mountain side
Desolation comes upon the sky

Now I see fire
Inside the mountain
I see fire
Burning the trees
And I see fire
Hollowing souls
I see fire
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me

Oh, should my people fall
Then surely I'll do the same
Confined in mountain halls
We got too close to the flame

Calling out father oh
Hold fast and we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on
The mountain side
Desolation comes upon the sky

Now I see fire
Inside the mountain
I see fire
Burning the trees
I see fire
Hollowing souls
I see fire
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me

And if the night is burning
I will cover my eyes
For if the dark returns
Then my brothers will die
And as the sky is falling down
It crashed into this lonely town
And with that shadow upon the ground
I hear my people screaming out

Now I see fire
Inside the mountains
I see fire
Burning the trees
I see fire
Hollowing souls
I see fire
Blood in the breeze

I see fire (oh you know I saw a city burning out) (fire)
And I see fire (feel the heat upon my skin, yeah) (fire)
And I see fire (uh-uh-uh-uh) (fire)
And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side

ABOUT GESTALT: SIMILARITY AND PROXIMITY

This task will be for the next two weeks. You have to find a very good example of the Law of Similarity and another one for Proximity. You can look for it on the Net or you can shoot the photo by yourself. There are a lot of good examples around you!

Thanks to Hugo Rubio for the photo  http://www.cazatormentas.net/index.php/noticias-de-meteorologia/105-previsiones-meteorologicas-prevision-del-tiempo/4080-vuelve-un-tiempo-tipicamente-veraniego-vuelve-un-tiempo-tipicamente-veraniego

I have chosen these three drawings because I like them. The first one is the logo of the brand "Fox" a very well known company of clothes and other objects. I chose it because I have one bag of this brand that I use everyday to go to the school. The second drawing is the "Ying and Yang" symbol that represents the two main forces that rule de world, I chose because is a beautiful symbol. The third  is an  abstract drawing that I paint with waxes. I chose waxes because it gives more intensity of colours.

My Mass-Media

My favorite medium or mass media is my tablet. I spend with it more or less 1 hour per day. I use it for entertainment and to fill the boredom. I usually use it instead of the television because this way I can watch my favourite programs (like Pretty Little Liars or The Vampire Diaries) any time, without waiting to the hour they play it in the television.
I usually use this medium when I´m already in bed before I fall asleep. Therefore I use it alone without any social interaction.

If this medium didn´t exist my routine would be obiously different because instead of using it to obtain the information needed for homework I would use a computer and instead of seeing my programs with it I would see them in the television. The first successful tablet was the iPad from apple who showed it in 2010 and it was an exit. All the people want it because it was more easily transported than a computer for the work .

The others media I normally use are radio, television, books, newspapers, mobile phone and cinema.

•  Radio:  I hear to it when I’m going to school with my mom and my sister in the car 15 minutes per day.
•  Television: I watch it all days during dinner with my family like half an hour.
•  Books: I read when I’m already in bed alone, usually love stories.
•  Newspapers: I don’t read the newspapers I just do the crosswords with my grandfather on Fridays.
• Mobile phone: I use it, more or less, 2 hours per day normally alone but to talk with more people.
• Cinema: I go to the cinema with my family or with my friends twice per month. 

Icon, Symbol and Logo

I'm Maria González Magdalena from 3rd A and I chose a crab for my drawing because I think a crab is a strong acuatic animal, althought it's size is not so big. In fact, I like this animal because it represents my zodiac symbol, so that would be one of the reasons why I chose this animal.

SARA LUNA

Although this song isn't in english I have already done the comic so I'm uploading the video with the lyrics and my work. 

As you can see I changed some words from the lyrics but I tryed to express more or less the same idea. 

Icon, symbol and logo by Claudia Iglesias (3rd A)

The icon and symbol want to express freedom, as a bird flying free and happy in the nature, and I chose the theme park because it's a place for children to be free and have fun.

ACTIVITY 1.1
I chose this logo because I think it is very beautiful, I chose this symbol because I think  it is symbolic and I draw this abstract composition because in my opinion is very fun.

Candela Suárez Álvarez 1ºD.

Icon, symbol and logo.

I'm Lucía Del Riego Nozal, from 3A.
I chose the cat sybol for this activity. By one hand, the cat represents a homely, domestic, gentle and sweet animal, that protects our homes, but by the other hand, the cat represents a very independent, powerful, free and cunning animal, that cheats and steals away. So we can translate the meaning of the cat sybol in many different ways, because it has a very complex behavior.

Perfect Two

AUBURN

You can be the peanut butter to my jelly
You can be the butterflies I feel in my belly
You can be the captain and I can be your first mate
You can be the chills that I feel on our first date
You can be the hero and I can be your side kick
You can be the tear that I cry if we ever split
You can be the rain from the cloud when it's stormin'
Or you can be the sun when it shines in the mornin'
Don't know if I could ever be
Without you cause boy you complete me
And in time I know that we'll both see
That we're all we need
Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry
Cause your the one for me for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you for you (for you)
You take the both of us of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two
You can be the prince and I can be your princess
You can be the sweet tooth I can be the dentist
You can be the shoes and I can be the laces
You can be the heart that I spill on the pages
You can be the vodka and I can be the chaser
You can be the pencil and I can be the paper
You can be as cold as the winter weather
But I don't care as long as we're together
Don't know if I could ever be
Without you cause boy you complete me
And in time I know that we'll both see
That we're all we need
Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry
Cause your the one for me for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you for you (for you)
You take the both of us of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two
You know that I'll never doubt ya
And you know that I think about ya
And you know I can't live without ya
I love the way that you smile
And maybe in just a while
I can see me walk down the aisle
Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry
Cause your the one for me for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you for you (for you)
You take the both of us of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two

Green Day-Boulevard Of Broken Dreams

                                                                  "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams"

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, aaah-ah,
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, aaah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah

I walk alone
I walk a...

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone...

Logos,Symbols and icons

For my project, I  choosed this because I really like music. This logo is based on the Stradivarius line . In the icon I drew a simple treble clef. In the symbol there is a treble clef and a treble of the bass together forming a sort of heart in black and white. The icon is the logo of Stradivarius but with the name "Shirts" in bright different colors.

ICON, SYMBOL AND LOGO

I did this exercise about an icon, a symbol and a logo trying to represent the same idea. First I thought that everybody is influenced by the people and the things that are around them. Because of this my icon is a fish. In my symbol, the fish is transforming into a bubble and in  my logo it has already transformed into an orange bubble (a logo for the Aquario de Gijón). I have chosen the fish and the water because they are always together.

Activity 1.1

Symbol, Icon And Logo

   The exercise we had to make this week was called: Create Three Pictograms. The thing is that we had to draw an icon, a symbol and a logo about the same idea. To draw the icon we had to draw the animal or the object exactly as it is. Then to make the symbol we had to draw that idea but more abstract. And finally we had to design a logo including the idea using our imagination and that was the best part.
Here is my work:

Ester Roi

Today I would like to speak about an exceptional artist, a woman with a powerful taste for colours who changes our perception of  the meaning of word “stone”. Yes, stones and much more than this .Rainbows on the water, hearts under rivers and seas. If you think that to paint stones can be boring you´re absolutely wrong. Ester Roi obtains a wide variety of tones  from the hue colours of her palette mixing pigments in order to achieve masterpieces of Art. 

At last, pictures are amazing and delicious.

Special drawings for a very special day

I´m uploading several drawings about flowers and fairies on this post ´cause all of them form part of a serial collection for my wedding invitations. It´s not completed but I would like to show it next days. I´ve taken inspiration from my fiancé´s potos, from images on the Net and extracted some ideas and characters from a very famous British artist´s beautiful book :How to Draw and Paint Fairyland,Linda Ravenscroft
