Mitchell Rossi Every Art Piece Tells a Story Apr 25 2014
As the bright yellow sun shone like a jewel in big blue sky,
coming with a few clouds as Sun FM mornings with Randy and Mare said these
clouds could bring in a 46.7% chance of showers. Off from school as we head
down to the Art Gallery. The school is a great place to learn, but it’s ok to
leave it behind for a bit and take learning to the outdoors. On our walk down
Ellis Street, I immediately turned on my IPod to “Dancing Queen” by “ABBA” then
“Take on me” by “Ah-Ha”. Having great conversations and seeing the flowers
start to bloom as spring comes around. As birds fly and sing and Ellis River
flows it reminds me what a beautiful city we live in.
Ellis Street is named after Tom Ellis, same as Vancouver
Street and Van Horne, and much more. Penticton has a lot of history for a one
hundred and nine year old city. The art gallery has some fantastic art pieces,
objects, everything tells a story, has a message or connection. The walk had
plenty of drivers going about on their daily commute. Also plenty of parked
vehicles standing on all four wheels. As ducks were sleeping and birds
chirping, nothing much changes in this city.
Entering the famous art gallery had the theme was bullying.
Talking about bullying bugs me because I find it sad to hear about. If I ever
see bullying happen in school to others or myself I immediately tell someone I
trust, a teacher, counselor, and parent. I don’t put up with bullying, it’s
unacceptable. The art gallery had a few interesting pieces. When you enter the
doors the first thing you see is baseball bats with awful words on them like
name calling.
There are too many art pieces to look at in such little time.
Quite a few pieces stood out with messages. You didn’t even need to figure out
what the messages were trying to get out. Other pieces took some time to
discover their messages. One stood out
to everybody, three bathroom stalls with writing all over them for other people
to see. There were some bad words and bullying messages. The piece of art that
I chose was called love. This water painting stood out to me, it was a man and
blue painting on one side of the picture, and the other side was a girl and
pink. Both were on top of a planet in space.
If this artist wants the person to connect to the art piece,
or see a message. The message would be two people finding each other and there
two different worlds are connecting into one. He trip was interesting, every
object or paining of art out there has a message or connection. The weather was
beautiful as the sun brought warmth and lifts up your spirits every day. Art is
a talent, a hobby, and even a job. Everyone has different talents and hobbies;
everyone can be good at these different talents. You just have to find them.
