ASCll Art Is an astonishing and complicated skill to learn. It is a true eye opener that art is in everything that you see today. You can make art with paint, pencils, food, objects, sounds, and just about anything you could ever think of, but did you know that you can make beautiful and complex art through symbols on a keyboard? It sounds crazy but people actually put their time into making beautiful pictures with just the fonts that they have on a computer.  From replicas of the beautiful and priceless Mona Lisa, to pictures of cats with top hats, you can find almost everything in ASCII style art nowadays because someone has most likely put it to life on their screen already.





I cannot even begin to think about the time and the effort that it must take to actually put one of these pieces of art together.  The artist has nothing to go off of except for their brain power which is an incredibly difficult task.  I see vivid pictures of cartoons I know, and famous actors and I'm just astonished that they managed to paint that clear of an image with only symbols that I use to help myself write a paper. The only ASCII art that I was familiar of was its most simple and basic form in which it could possibly get... the colon and parentheses ( :) ).  You would think that these simple text art would be the peak of what art can achieve within this category but you would be incredibly mistaken after a little searching on the web.





 Being in an art class, I think that this would make an awesome project to be assigned to us. I would like to see the creativity that both me and my classmates share. It might be one of the hardest art projects I could get but art is just one big, beautiful challenge  so that is to be expected. I think that this ASCII art is so extraordinary because of the tools that are being used to make it and just the amount of knowledge and patience that is  applied to it. You don't have to be good with paint and a canvas nor a pencil and paper to make astounding art,  there are tools all over you that are capable of making the same unique art that is shown hanging up in museums. It just depends on how far your imagination can travel.

         My name is Gavin Gonzalez and I'm an extremely open person who loves to meet new people. I was born and raised in South Philadelphia and loved every minute of it. I am 18 years old and chose Tampa due to its beautiful campus and endless positive opinions about it. Classes here so far have been a huge change from the high school setting I'm use to, but its everything I've ever dreamt of.  This class seems like it'll be interesting because it is all new to me. I expect to come out of this class knowing more about Art and Technology than I've ever known befo. I am also a huge Game of Thrones fan as you can   see here.

FlipBook Assignment





















   `This flipbook assignment was by far the most fun and interesting assignment that I had in college so far. It allowed me to just put whatever was on my mind onto a sheet of paper and allow others to see the creativity that I hold as well as my fellow classmates. Although mine isn't a masterpiece like others that you may see, I really enjoyed making mine and that's all that matters. These are the types of assignments I look forward to in my art class and I hope there are more to come.   `After finishing my flipbook, I went online and searched for other flipbooks made from people and I was astonished with what I found. The creativity that these random people hold in there brain truly is a gift and a work of art. Each one has a story behind it and explains the character of the artist behind it. The amount of time and effort that was put into these flipbooks is also something quite amazing. As I was making mine, it felt like a stress reliever because all that I was focused on wa

ART AND TECHNOLOGY FINAL





















    Life as a college student sure does sound like one big hoorah when your young and have been stuck in your parents house, under their rules your whole life. But with all the fun comes much more stress and responsibility and thats what I tried to capture here in this clip.   The first months of college are always a blast and the most exciting time of our lives but as time goes on the work just piles up more and more,day by day. At times youll feel so overwhelmed and feel like you cant relax or take a break because it will only further the stress but that is not true. Learn how to take a break and regroup with your life or surroundings.   Call your parents, text your life long friend, do something that eases your mind and doesnt make you feel like theres an elephant on your chest. College isnt as serious and important as you think it is but your health surely is!!!   EAT, SLEEP, WORK, PARTY, AND REPEAT!
