I think they both did a good job on capturing each element and principle. There definitely were multiple elements and principles in each picture. For example, Matt's picture with Niagara Falls was labeled as line but I could also see unity, proportion, space, etc. in it. They both were very creative and different from each other when choosing photos and that's why I chose each of them. I liked how they weren't completely similar and could give different examples to express each principle and element.

Neither of them had any of the same artworks that I chose. But they both chose Janet Fish's artwork, Ryan had it as something he found a connection with while Matt had it as an artwork he wanted to know more about.

One artwork that really interested me was the one by Phillip Guston, Voyage. I find this one interesting because like Ryan said, I wasn't quite sure what I was looking at, and I'm still not quite sure what it means. I like how this painting keeps me wondering and keeps me thinking about it. I definitely want to know what this artwork means and why the artist created it. I also want to know what inspired him and what he was thinking about while creating it. There has to be some reasoning that is quite interesting about this piece.

I definitely like reading my peers responses because I can see how much they are learning as well. I can also see how their appreciation is growing like mine. It is also nice to see a different perspective than my own. Especially with the first project. I liked looking at my peers pictures because some of them were really cool and I would have never thought about choosing some of the things to represent the elements and principles.

I think the comments that they left were definitely helpful. I never realized that the labels for my slideshow weren't showing up. I also liked how they got the same feelings from most of the paintings that I choose from the Albright Knox. Its cool to see that people can have the same view points as you and also different ones. The comments also help me get a better understanding and appreciation for art.
