Out of the five blogs I have read, there are two entries in particular that I agree with. Jen Flaxman and Stephanie Slivka both had great entries in their blogs, one of which was about art, and the other about our Mindbooks.
Jen is a really artistic and down to earth girl who appreciates all types of art. One of her blogs was about how when she tries to make a piece she can think too hard about what she wants to do and she can get lost in her own mind. Myself being a artist too, I could totally relate to what she is saying and I know first hand how that feels. My comment on her blog is below:
"I know exactly what your talking about. Thinking about art is probably three times as hard as trying to make it. The same as you, I can get lost in my emotions while trying to create something and then that endless cycle keeps repeating itself and it takes me forever to create something new."
I believe that art is all about just going with the flow and not thinking too hard. If you try to think too much about how something looks or how something flows with another, you'll never get anything done. Art can be described as a lot of different things, the best way to make it is to just do it. Just like Nike.

Stephanie Slivka's post is a great find because it is so true. Like Mr. Allen says, a Mindbook is a guide to you and nobody else. It is SO TRUE. Stephanie's blog is about how everyone is accepting of others' work and that nobody can judge someone's work because its about themself. The comment I posted on her blog reads:
"What your saying is completely true. When someone presents their piece in the mindbook, there is not any judgment or prejudice. Everyone is pleased and intrigued about the person's drawing, and maybe even the person that created it. Everything you say about not judging people is so true and so real. Its almost a sense of respect."
When I make my Mindbook entries, it is almost a sense of relief that nobody can judge you. The only thing that can be judged is the ID which is only read by Mr. Allen. The Mindbook is a perfect way for a person to express themselves and their interests in ways that many people can learn to understand. When Stephanie said that everyone is fascinated by other peoples work and that they dont judge people by it, I was SO happy that someone feels the same way I do about the people in our class. I am really happy I found her Blog.
