Vanessa Bell

One issue women in society, today face and are being looked down upon is body image.Women go through life facing many adversities allowing themselves to be controlled by images in magazines as well as Television.Body image is the mental image of one’s own body,In this still-life painting, Nude, by Vanessa Bell painted in 1922, sits a woman in an oval-shaped chair with her head down fully naked in a dark room. Her emotions show that she might be in despair, or that she isn’t happy with the way she looks. The painting is oil-based on a canvas, the original painting stands at 5ft.32in tall. The artist probably used this size of image and form of paint in a creative way to explain the emotion behind the image. My thought is that the image represents…

From the time she was born to 1895, Virginia spent her summers at the Stephen’s Talland House in England, which to this day is still standing. The looks of the dramatic Porthminister Bay had a view of the Godrevy Lighthouse that inspired her to write. Her mother passed away in 1895, followed by her sister two years later. These events left her in a state of shock. She called it “the greatest disaster that could ever happen” (“The Life Story Of Virginia Woolf That Will Motivate”). Her mother’s…

which inspired some of her greatest works. It is sad, though, that she was in darkness her whole life and was not able to see the light. But, despite the darkness, she was able to give the literary world some great pieces and that is what she is remembered for. Virginia Woolf was a very influential writer of her time and continues to be today, she wrote on modern issues especially focusing on feminism. Woolf faced many hardships and trials growing up and throughout her life they affected her…

Vanessa Hudgens may be best known for her role in the hit Disney series High School Musical as Gabrielle Montez singing beside future star and fellow teen heart-throb Zac Efron. The warm reception and success of the original movie led to several sequels, catapulting the young starlet to fame and making Vanessa Hudgens a household name. Though after the completion of HSM, the starlet said goodbye to her Disney roots and left the company to pursue a career in film. The rising star would go on to…

Work, was a completely different spin on the original song; Harvey had a very “white” approach, while taking away all of the cultural elements of Rihanna’s original version. While this took away the unique factors of the song that Rihanna had implemented from the start, I did find it refreshing that Harvey was not trying to replicate Rihanna’s accent and song style. This style left it particularly dry, lacking the cultural aspects that made this song what it is, and took away the reason why this…

When a man journeys into a far country, he must be prepared to forget many of the things he has learned, and to acquire such customs as are inherent with existence in the new land; he must abandon the old ideals and the old gods, and oftentimes he must reverse the very codes by which his conduct has hitherto been shaped. To those who have the protean faculty of adaptability, the novelty of such change may even be a source of pleasure; but to those who happen to be hardened to the ruts in which…

We remembered to stay close to the field so that we could hear the calls for water. The conversation was so intense we mistakenly walked further than regular. Next, I distinctly remember hearing loud ship like bells ringing. Around the plantation, bells ringing meant two things: runaway or fire. Abraham and I, heard the bells and looked at each other with fear. We quickly made our way back to the path to led us by the water stations. As we got closer, we heard dogs barking and seconds later we…

uncomfortableness around your peers with a sigh. They are not amused and have decided you are blacklisted from their social group. These are the elite, and only few can gain entry to this group during your first years of high school. The bell rings and you hastily move to history down the hall, ducking and dodging the herds of sheep who have nothing better to do than walk as a barricade in the hall, a single annoying organism. As you arrive you see a select few with the same interests as you.…

The Bells consist of four stanzas of varying lengths that follows no particular rhyme scheme (Poetry E., 2003). Each stanza consists of four different bells: sleigh, wedding, alarm and lastly funeral (Poetry E., 2003). Common occurrence of the ringing, Poe finds a metaphor for the progression of the common man from the carefree times of youth (as in…

For half of my kindergarten year I would hear that bell. Not the one the teacher would rattle to get her students attention, but the one that indicated that the time for recess had come. I would halfheartedly get out of my seat and walk out onto the play yard. Ready to go on a lonely adventure that my imagination had been dying to show to me. I felt like each second ticked on like hours as I ran out of new adventures to go on, and after a while I would just end up waiting for the bell to ring…
