On the great morning of March 24, 2005
On the great morning of March 24, 2005 my art appreciation class was asked to meet in front of the Author Rose Museum to view Dr. Ibomans statue entitled "The Souls Errand". The class was then asked to write a critical paper on our whole experience of appreciating the piece of art. The morning of our great adventure was really not a fun one because of the fact that it was raining and we as a class were told that if it were to rain that we were to meet in the class room. Being that in my opinion it was raining I went straight to the class room to find that it were empty. After my miserable walk in the rain towards the statue I saw my class standing around the statue in a group. The hilarious part of all was that everyone was thinking the same thing that I was thinking about the rain, but acted as if nothing were wrong. The best part of the wrong time was after I finally showed up. I realized that looking at others work now meant more to me now that I know better, and now that I can comprehend the real meaning of the slightest of jesters in figures. The first thing I did was look at the statue as a whole. I first looked a the figure and noticed how the figured was dressed in a turban like wrap the wrapped around his entire body.
The figures mouth was wide open as if he has seen something worth seeing in his life and he wants everyone to listen to him about what the truth really is. What I have learned form this project also is the fact that we as people take things in life for granted and we rush through life without taking time to smell the roses sometimes. The final and most important thing that I looked at was the base of the statue. By this time it was about eight thirty and we were moving to Dr. So this I what I learned from my whole experience outside witnessing " The Souls Errand". Most people talk about his teaching style but to me I love it because the person that I am, I am going to say what is on my mind just like he will. I learned this because without guidance with this paper that I was asked to write it would have taken me all day, and in the end I would have then realized that this whole paper was worth nothing. In the end this project was really an eye opener for me because of the fact that not only did I get closer with my fellow classmates I also got closer with my self. I then looked at the facial features of the character which to me if the most foretelling about how the artist wants you to feel though looking at his statue of man. This attitude can lead into serious trouble if not trained a first. I think the this statue is telling us that we should do what we know is right by us and stop worrying about what other people have to say about you and reap the benefits in the end. One hand was at its side while the second was holding it up as he was ready to receive something from someone. Now I take the time and observe everything that goes on in my life for instance I even took notice in the texture of the statue.
