Where am I? Why am I in so much pain? What has Happened? Bastill, awoke with a heaving breath in aches and pain to the warmth of the surrounding environment. Becoming aware of the bright light playing behind the eye lids, he began hearing ragged shallow breath of a creature fighting for its continued survival. Everything felt leaded down and groggy in his current state. Bastill could feel himself lying on a hard surface with his legs and feet held in place. Painfully he tried prying open the heavy lids apart to peer into the room, but to no avail. He continued laying there trying to catch his breath. As he breathed in he could smell sulfur. I just need to come down a bit and everything will be fine. Until after what felt like years, he …show more content…

His skills certainly told a story. He grew up in an Orphanage and didn’t gather any of the normal skills from various chores such as Gathering. Those kinds of skills are what most children would develop due to their parents. Instead he went joined a street gang and spent his time thieving until he turned his life around and started sculpting. He never liked that life and was happy to get out of it. He opened a new page and put that life behind him and threw his whole being into the work of sculpting. He threw his whole life into sculpting and it became his biggest passion in life. One of his proudest moments was gaining the Trait Stone Touch. Not that it was help
Change and continuity are two major principles of life. They can easily be applied to history because their application accurately portrays the circumstances, and characterizes the era of interest. Merriam-Webster defines continuity as an uninterrupted connection, succession, or union, or an uninterrupted duration or continuation especially without essential change. Change is defined as to make different in some particular, to alter, to make radically different, to transform, or to give a different position, course, or direction to. These antonyms are critical in understanding history.
His pieces inspire in a way. They give you that thought of anything is possible, and you don't have to be normal to make clay. I have learned that there are many different wheel methods you can use. Such as folding the clay or distorting it in some way other then it is supposed to turn out. I learned that flaws in an artists work might not be flaws. I have noticed that in a art when something is different or unique from other artists work than they are noticed more and are much popular. In the future I will definitely be influenced to put more creativity into my work. It will make me think a lot more of how I can make my artwork and clay pieces different than others, and maybe unique isn't such a bad thing. Changing something up a little bit every once in a while isn't that bad. My perception of ceramic art has changed over the course of this year. Just making clay yourself will make you appreciate another's piece a lot more. Especially if clay pieces are basically perfect you will have a lot of respect for the artist of that clay. Learning about clay artists and the work did is just mind opening to what is possible. My perception has changed in a way that I will always judge a piece by its uniqueness and its ability to astound or make me question it. I'm very glad that when I spotted George Ohr I picked him. What I was very interested in this research was the fact that everyone thought he was
One night he sprang from sleep with a start, eager-eyed, nostrils quivering and scenting, his mane bristling in recurrent waves. From the forest came the call(or one note of it, for the call was many noted), distinct and definite as never before—a long-drawn howl, like, yet unlike, any noise made by husky dog. And he knew it, in the old familiar way, as for as sound heard before. He sprang through the sleeping camp and in swift silence dashed through the woods. As he drew closer to the cry
Between the advancements in farming and the guild system, people across western Europe were highly effected by some part of the economy or another. Early on in the Middle Ages, around the year 1000, farmers had heavier plows and had greatly improved when it came to harnessing horses (Palmer et al. 27). These two aspects made it considerably easier to farm because the plows had a much easier time getting through the soil, while having horses readily available and attached to the plow in the right way made the entire process faster, and overall a better experience. Advancements in farming made it much more productive, which eventually led to the feudal system. Because farming was becoming more and more productive by the day at this time, surpluses were starting to be created, ultimately leading to job specialization and guilds. During the Middle Ages, towns and cities were often home to a guild that specialized in one specific product (LeVan). Masters worked with journeymen and apprentices to perfect whatever craft their guild specialized in (McKay et al. 346). Because there were highly trained masters in charge of everything, from training apprentices to creating goods, it could be ensured that quality was up to par. The masters passed on their knowledge to apprentices, which meant that the products would still be of good quality after the original master ended their career. For the most part, guilds had monopolies on whatever product they specialized in (555). With one guild producing all of a certain good, consumers had no choice but to buy from them, meaning that if necessary, a guild that created a product that almost everyone needed could significantly raise the price, and people would have no choice but to buy from them. People working in the guilds typically made very good wages because of this idea. Economically, the Middle Ages progressed tremendously,
“I remained during the rest of the night…fearing each sound as if it were…the demoniacal corpse to which I had so miserably given life” (43).
“Yet in languid/frenzy strove, as/one freezing fights off/sleep desiring sleep;/strove against/ the canceling arms that/suddenly surrounded/me.” (Hayden 4). The use of sound in the last six lines of the poem causes the reader to feel the need for air and the fear of death. “Reflex of life-wish”/Respirators brittle/belling?
In the agricultural industry the children would harvest crops and sewing. If the children were working in the mining industry it was very dangerous. The conditions were very poor, it was very dirty and not pleasant. The boys were called “Breaker Boys” they broke down raw coal into different pieces for certain furnaces. The coal bearers would carry coal on their shoulders, and the smallest children worked as trappers, they would open trap doors in the mines to move the coal. As for the manufacturing industry, the children would work in dark and dirty conditions. They worked around sharp tools and and machines, which caused a lot of injuries to them.
While his life was building up to the moment he became rich off of his creativity, it helped him become the man he is today. No matter how unique his life has been, one thing has been a constant in his life, along with many others; He was influenced by the color and personality shown through a piece of art, which was the intent in the first place.
.... He uses his work as a form of therapy and puts his heart and soul into anything he touches. The pain from being unaccepted by his peers and family is put into his work. His nightmares from the past come out on paper. Without the judgment and pain thrown at him, he could have never been as great as he is today. Every aspect of his work has been affected by his life, whether it be relationships, being pushed down, or feeling alone. He has rose from the ashes of his past, taken all of the pain and turned it into something truly beautiful.
“The room was silent. His heart pounded the way it had on their first night together, the way it still did when he woke at a noise in the darkness and waited to hear it again - the sound of someone moving through the house, a stranger.”(4)
The time period this work takes place in is a very gloomy and frightening time. He wakes up in a dark place by himself and in fear, which makes things worse. A common theme we can relate this dark place to is when we fall off of the path of God. Since God represents all things good, the dark is the exact opposite. Since everything is not so clear in the wood he his describing, the path back to God is even more difficult to attain.
Lago perfectly fits into the villain archetype throughout Othello. We see examples of this on numerous occasions throughout the story. He is the “Puppet Master” of all of the conflicts throughout the plot. He orchestrates events that perfectly align with his motive for revenge. Just like the stereotype of villains all having one main motive and way of viewing life, so does Lago.
A sudden dark cloud crashes over him rendering him motionless, lost and destitute. The black dog that haunted him for so long was now not running but flying at him, suddenly engulfed completely by despair. Thinking of his wife and children, tears come to his eyes. Wiping the dusty sleeve across his face, cursing himself for crumpling under the darkness. Failure was never supposed to be a part of him and his future.

As he continued he grew closer to the the squeals that were as loud as gunfire he began to cover his ears. He looked around the wall at the end of the stairs and saw something terrifying a corpse with less blood than a mummy. He waited a second to see if any of the Hatman’s would appear but instead the only thing that happened was the squeal stopped entirely and a strange looking circle of black mist arose and started to expand throughout the room and Dr.Toboggan heard whispers surround him. He started
