Spring In Zion
The painting "Spring In Zion" by Laura Mann is captivating in the way that it uses lighting to catch the viewers attention. When I first saw this painting there were two things that really jumped out at me. First it was the way the sun found its way through the clouds and casted it's rays into the river reflecting what looked like shattered glass strewn about the bottom. Then there's the tree that's just as lit and lively as the river. It's long branches covered in a perfect vibrant green makes it seem like a photo-shopped picture strait from Zion. It was a combination of lighting, color scheme, and contrast that gave this picture so much meaning. It really jumped out to me and gave me the feeling of a warm summer day and a light breeze in the most perfect setting I could imagine. A great painting all around.

Hi Cole, I reviewed your essay on Name Brand Shoes. looks like you have a lot of good information.I liked the info about how more expensive shoes really do use more high quality materials,and the benefits that come with a higher quality.The only sugestion I have is maybe trying to find online reviews on some of the cheaper brands of shoes,so you have opinions on both name brand and off brand shoes.
