My work is visual communication,
and I would rather show than tell.
I combine words and images to convey ideas.
This piece is the start of a visual summary of some of the main themes of this class.
To complete it I would like to include some representative works.
My natural tendency is toward the side of reason,
but this is a reminder that we all embody both aspects,
and sometimes I will need to use the tools of passion
to communicate most effectively.

Great visual Karen. Powerful tool- cliff notes to say something smart about just any work of art. I'd love to see it continue beyond romantic into the impressionists and the modern...
@Gabe,
Thanks! Yes, it's a useful framework for viewing art. I also was tempted to try to extend it into later movements, but I'm not sure it would be valid. Changes in technology and society allow a vast array of styles to coexist at once, and influence each other almost instantly, unlike the past, where styles evolved more slowly.
