III. PAMAMARAAN
A. Panimulang Gawain
B. Presentasyon at Talakayan
Ang sining ay nangangahulugang "anumang gawain o likhang pinagbuhusan ng husay at talento" na galing sa
salitang Latin na "ars" - talento o kakayahan. Ito ay sinangkapan ng agham ng aesthetics - ang pinakamataas
ng anyo ng pagpapahalaga at pagiging sensitibo ng isang tao sa paghuhusga sa mga produkto ng sining. Ito rin
ay hindi kumukupas, tumataas ang halaga o pagpapahalaga habang lumilipas ang panahon at nasusukat ang
tunay na halaga sa pamamagitan ng damdamin at kahulugang nais na maiparating sa mga nanonood nito. Ang
Edukasyon sa Sining ay nakatuon sa buhay ng tao at sumasaklaw sa ating emosyon, talino, pagkatao,
pananampalataya, pagkamalikhain at aestitikong pananaw.

Ang sining ay kaakibat ng personal na pananaw ng isang tao, ang kanyang nararamdaman at iniisip na
nananatiling mabisa sa pagpapanatili ng moralidad, pagsulong ng kaalaman, pagpapatatag ng kalagayan sa
lipunan, tagapagbandila ng kultura ng isang bansa at tagapag-ugnay ng tao sa kanyang manlilikha - isang
dahilan kung bakit ang sining ay mabisang daan tungo sa pakikipagtalastasan.

Art in some form or another has existed as long as man. It is a part of our daily
lives and is present in cultures across the world. Most people have an
appreciation for art. They enjoy observing it or creating it, they may even
support it financially or by volunteering.
Art is integral in our culture because it provides us with a deeper
understanding of emotions, self-awareness, and more. The following are all
reasons why I believe everyone needs art in their lives.
1. It is a natural part of us. There is a drive within all of us to create and
express ourselves through art. Observe any child with box full of crayons and a
piece of paper and you will see it. I believe that drive comes from a need to
achieve a balance within ourselves. That balance is felt when you are creating
something exactly as you wish it to be. Sometimes other forms of
communication may fail to allow us to express ourselves completely, and this
is when we turn to art.
2. Records the emotions of society. It is important that we know our history.
We learn the dates, people and places of important events, and we even learn
why and how they occurred. Art gives us a different insight into our history. It
shows us how those events impacted the people living them. Through art we
learn the joy felt during times of happiness and we see the pain and despair
during times of suffering. We see the hopes and the dreams, or the fears and
regrets of the past. Through art we gain a better understanding of how the
events throughout history have shaped us into what we are today.
3. Helps us achieve a better self awareness. We live in a fast-paced world of
quick decisions and fragmented thoughts. Creating art allows us to slow down
and experience the full range of our emotions. Viewing the art of others can
give rise to emotions within us and help us explore and interpret what we are
feeling. Understanding our emotions can help us heal, grow and improve
ourselves. Increasing our self awareness through art can lead to more success
both personally and professionally.
4. Encourages critical thinking and better communication. When we create
art we make decisions throughout the entire process. When we view art we
make decisions on how to interpret what we are seeing. We use logic and
reason to attribute meaning to what we see or what we create. Because art has
such an emotional connection to us, these choices are passionate to us. We
learn to defend them and explain them to others. Art not only helps
strengthen our critical thinking skills, but improves the way we communicate
our thoughts and emotions to others.
5. Bridges the gap between cultures. Through art we gain a better
understanding of cultures in the past, but it also gives us insight into various
cultures of present day. There are no distance or language barriers in art, it is
universal. By observing the creations of people from other cultures we can
gain a better understanding of their lives. Through art we are able to get a
glimpse of another persons existence through their eyes. It is a powerful tool
that can improve communication and relationships between cultures.
6. Improves our daily lives. Art can make a community more beautiful. It
makes the spaces we work in more interesting. Our homes reflect our
personalities through the art we choose to display. It can inspire us, make us
happy, or even motivate us. Living in a purely functional world would lack
meaning for us as human beings. We need to express ourselves through art
and we need to surround ourselves with the expressions of others. We always
have, and we always will.
Bring some art into your life. In Michigan, we have great organizations like
the Kresge foundation, ArtServe Michigan, and the Knight
Foundation supporting the arts.
If you’re in the Metro Detroit area, make sure you visit Art X Detroit this
weekend and stay tuned for our recap of the event.

The role of art in our life.

Art is an all embracing notion (music, painting, theatre, literature and so on).
Art had the most important role in the development of the mankind. The first
were found on walls of ancient caves. So we can guess that painting was the
first way of art. Painting is the most understandable way of art, because it
gives us the most full and vivid impression.

Seneka once said: “All art is bur imitation of nature”. I doon’t agree with him. I
think that art has many functions and it’s hard to overestimate the role of art in
one’s life. Art has great influence on our souls, feelings, forms our moral
values. Art forms our outlook and enriches our inner world. Art influ-ences
greatly the development and of evolution of con-sciousness of a person and of
the mankind. Art makes us think of the sense of life, how people must live,
what is ideal of beauty, what iss love, – the eternal questions. Art helps us to
understand people who lived hundred years ago and to learn the history of the
mankind. Art creates our notion about beauty and harmony. Art helps people
to understand outside world and ea

ach others. Art develops our good qualities. Art has a great educational significance. Art
brings people up – makes them more humane and kind. The language of art is
universal. Everybody, in spite of age, nationality, occupation understands what is said
by the painter. Art gives people a possibility to express ourselves and to become
famous. But I don’t think that every painter becomes famous. Only talented, genius
people like da Vinci, Raphael and others can create great, eternal art, real
masterpieces. Art is great only if it has links with people’s lives, interests, ideals. If it
hasn’t, it won’t be understood and acknowledged. Real art appeals to the heart and
mind of a man, to his feelings and it proclaims liife.

As to the trends of art, I prefer old art. Painting of old masters is one of the greatest
treasures mankind has col-lected in the history of its civilisation. The pictures of old
painters are in all big museum of the world (for example, the Hermitage, the
Tretiakovskaya gallery and others). Old paint-ing reflects the collective experience of
human spiritual life of many centuries, because, as I have already said, painting is the
first way of art. As to country sc
chools of painting, I prefer English painting school. My favourite English painter is
George Romney.

George Romney was born in 1734. He was a son of a cabinetmaker. He was

apprenticed to Christopher Steele, a travelling portraitist between 1775 and 1757; at
that time Romney established himself in Kendal, Westmoreland, where he had a fairly
prosperous trade in small portraits. In 1762 he left for London; here he broadened his
style considerably. In 1763 and 1765 he won awards at the Society of Arts. During the
next few years he became more popular as a portrait painter. In 1764 Romney paid a
short visit to Paris. In 1773 he left England and spent two years in Italy, mainly Rome,
study-ing antique sculpture and the work of Raphael. These studies had a major
influence on the development of his style.

On his return to England in 1775 Romney rapidly be-came and remained for many
years one of the most fashion-able portrait painters in London; his patrons ranged from
the Prince of Wales and members of the aristocracy to the literary and dramatic figures
of the day. Second only to Sir Joshua Reynolds in popularity, Romney was, however,
such a pathol-ogically timid character that he never ventured to present himself for the
ho
onours of the Royal Academy of Arts and hence acquired an unmerited reputation of a
recluse. In 1782 he met his “divine lady”, Emma Hart, later Lady Hamilton, of whom he
painted a great number of famous portraits in vari-ous character roles. Romney painted
four pictures for John Boydell’s Shakespeare Gallery between 1786 and 1791. These
were among the very few subject he finished, though he left thousands of rough
sketches that are of great interest. Unlike his public work, these sketches link Romney
with the imaginative world of William Blake. After 1796, ill health forced Romney to stop
painting. The last years were spent in Kendal. George Romney died in 1801.

The most vivid impression on me has produced Rom-ney’s picture “The portrait of
duchess Elisabeth Derby”, which was finished in 1778. It is an oil painting, canvas.

The figure of a beautiful rich woman is placed on the landscape background. It is a full
length portrait. The woman is represented sitting. The figure is arranged in a vertical for-
mat. Colouring is subtle, soft, delicate and restful. Brush-strokes are not visible.

The women is dressed in luminous dress, through which one can see contours of her
figure. The lady’s figure is lighted up evenly. The women has be
eautiful big dark eyes, tall forehead, rosy cheeks, straight nose and beautiful lips. The
profession of the woman isn’t indicated, but she has graceful hands, so one can guess
that she doesn’t work with her hands. We can judge that she is a representative of high
class family.

Every pleat of the woman’s dress, coiffure and other details are painted very precisely.
As to my opinion the details are not emphasised purposely. Accuracy in details is the re-
sult of supreme mastery in technique of the painter. So the figure is a harmonious unity.

The landscape isn’t painted so exactly. There is a piece of blue-grey sky in the right-
corner of the picture, but on the horizon the clouds are condensing. The forest behind
the lady isn’t green, it is obscure and gloomy. Predominant colour is brown. There is a
sharp contrast between lighted up figure and dark landscape. The figure is close to the
observer than to the landscape. So the figure doesn’t blend with the land-scape.

The posture of the lady is very natural. Her eyes are gazed before and upper herself.
She is deep in her thoughts.
