THE CHALLENGE!!
After being exposed to different dicipline in art , Can you give your own definition of it?
Art for me is a way of expressing things in a creative way. It is the result of the creative human mind with the inspiration of the artist's emotions, experiences in life and memories. People express themselves through different styles and techniques. It may be through paintings, sculpture, literature, music and even to their daily life activities and things. The choice of materials that they use depends on the melody of their feelings and thoughts.
Please see art as expression for the examples of art expressed in different styles and expression of oneself

"When Everthing is Broken"
by: Chester Calayag
This had displayed the psychological effect on children that
are exposed to family problems that they are not supposed
to. As future parents, one should be aware of these things
to avoid the negative effects on our future children. If
one's childhood days isn't that admirable, One should not
make it as a basis in the future and do the same thing on their children. After experiencing this thing, one should be able to know the negative effects and should assure that their future children would not be exposed on the said experiences.
"Souvenir"

"Souvenir"

Humans are fragile creatures. They are prone to temptations. They are prone to make sinful acts. This had displayed the said fragility of human beings. One must learn how to fight temptation. One must learn to seek salvation.
Based on your experiences in observing artwork in the national museum, How would you describe Filipino artist?
Filipino artists are emotional. They drive their expression with their strong passion to express their point of views in certain issues. They let their artworks be the reflection of their oneself.
Like in Spolarium, the artist had displayed the cruelties that the Filipino are experiencing with the spaniards.
Also in Governor Dasmariñas by Felix Hidalgo, the artist displayed its point of view regarding the church being superior over the government. In the painting, one can see the friar priest whispering to the government official. One can interpret it as the priest giving the instructions to the official and it shall be done.
Of all artwork that you have observed what artwork best describe your personality?
It would be Souvenir.
I associate myself to this painting because I am human. I experience what normal people experience. I am prone to sinful acts. I am easily tempted.
I experience and was tempted on the 7 deadly sins.
Gluttony
Humans are tempted to indulge oneself in eating. I fight this sinful act by having discipline to myself on what to eat and avoid getting addicted by it.

Greed Humans are tempted to wish for everything. They became selfish and easily be corrupted. I, myself restrict myself from wanting everything. I seek salvation. I learn how to be satisfied and be thankful on whatever God had provided me. I am thankful that i had the chance to experience what life is and what it feels like to be alive. I am thankful already of my life and its already enough to be able to enjoy what life is.
Sloth
For me, the worst enemy of all seven. the sloth. This is the most common but the most difficult to overcome. There are times that I easily indulge myself to sloth. I fail to utilize my skills. To be able to overcome this, I still have to think of all my goals in life and my inspirations to overcome sloth.
As humans, it is not a sin to be tempted. It is normal and it only means that you are living. But being tempted and not seeking for salvation and not fighting the sinful acts are considered a bad thing and is a sin. One must apply all they learn on bible sayings. It is not enough to learn them and not applying them. It is better to apply them in life for these bible sayings are only a guide to salvation but it is not the salvation itself. so learning it without application is for me is somewhat useless for it did not serve its purpose.
