I learned that of course Art is Literature and Literature is Art. But something that is worth mentioning about is a certain individual having a gift for analyzing a piece of Art. Tracy Chevalier is able to write short stories of paintings that has little puzzles of the art that does not make sense. It was fascinating to listen as she talked about the little pieces of the art that stood out to her and wrote stories about that those little pieces. She would dart the whole art gallery and when a certain piece of art catches her eye for any reason. She'd then put her attention onto that piece of art and ask what drew me?
Another thing that was fascinating to talk about would be of course the Girl with the Pearl Earring painting that was mentioned in the video. To the regular folk, it may look nothing special to you or I but if you know little trivia of art or of that time it was painted. You'll see her mouth open which signifies that she is available. Maybe odd to mention but I had to mention it because of how it was in plain view. For everyone to see such a thing but not be able to understand why she had her mouth open.
The last thing I've learned this week would have to be the poem of the week.Elegy in X Parts, this poet was able to use the Elements of Poems to be able to create a unique voice for the speaker. It dealt with suicide but it did not use Lamens Terms. It simply used the Elements of Poetry to create something better. I was surprised at this but I shouldn't be.
For these are the things I've learned this week.

The reason I chose this link is because we humans often forget that we have the worlds resources right at our fingertips. How often do you see someone pull out the internet and search at certain piece of art or painting?
