Beer Advertisement The objective of the first assignment was to create an illustration of a beer advertisment in a full color, realistic or stylized. The illustration should show the beers attributes in a positive light. First of all, the development of this assignment began with a variety of thumbnails for the illustration, which could range from literal to obscure, then drawing a full size illustration, and finally developing the finished illustration with an any medium. The image had to express the fortune visually in a creative way, by exploring a variety of ideas, and setting them in different environments. My conceptual idea was an image of a boxer. I began my research by taking photos of myself in different stances. I had a lot of dramatic lighting in the foreground. I used watercolor as my medium. I wanted to use a lot of dark and light colors. In addition, to the process, I had to perform research through different sources for my conceptual ideas. For instance, I looked through a variety of magazines. And I also searched through the Internet looking through a variety of web pages on unusual images and paintings. I To conclude, the third assignment was achieved by creating a full page, full color illustration using acrylic medium with a fortune as the theme. In his trial, Socrates discusses the true reason for his bad reputation. He implies that it had nothing to do with corrupting the youth or being an atheist. Socrates then tells the story of his friend Chairephon, who went to an oracle when they were younger. The oracle told Chairephon that no one is wiser than Socrates. Upon hearing this, Socrates made it his duty to question men with established reputations, who were believed to be the wisest in Athens. Since his youth, Socrates' goal was to see if he could find one man truly wiser than him. Politicians, poets, and the ologians were among the many he pursued. Socrates found that after examining their moral values, they were not wise, as they had appeared. "In my investigation in the service of the god I found that those who had the highest reputation were nearly the most deficient, while those who were thought to be inferior were more knowledgeable" (26). Ultimately, Socrates earned a bad reputation because his scrutiny exposed the men's ignorance. Most importantly, in his trial, Socrates makes a final attempt to reveal to the citizens of Athens that they are corrupting themselves by pursuing material objects and by having no concern for the state of their souls.
