Introduction Blog Post

 Hello! 

My name is Olivia Whitehair, I am a senior at UAF. I will be graduating this fall with a BA in Criminal Justice and an AAS in Paralegal Studies. I am 22 years old, married, and have five dogs. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, adventuring, and spoiling my dogs. 

I really enjoy painting and would love to get more into pottery. I love art museums, and I recently went to an interactive art museum in Pittsburgh, which was awesome! We then went to Randyland, which was a pretty whacky place! I have inserted one of my favorite murals in my home state of West Virginia. I love this simply because the artist was able to create something beautiful out of something relatively unattractive.

Classical Era and Revolution & Art in the 1700s

  This piece is called, "The Tennis Court Oath" by Jacques-Louis David (1791). France. This painting showcases the famous Tennis Court Oath, which is an event during the early stages of the French Revolution where members of the Third Estate swore not to disband until a new constitution was established. It symbolizes the revolutionary spirit and the commitment to political change. The dimension in this painting provides us with the illusion that there are many people in this square elongated room, that we now can recognize as a tennis court. There contrast in this photo brings out the man in the front dressed in white as well as the man to the right that is propped up and pointing forward. It really brings your eye to the center of this painting. The man standing tall in the center also helps to create this effect and assists in bringing the eye to the ceiling helping to give the effect that the room is very large. This painting is relative to the classical era because of the...
