Description a)

Art not without ambition, but without the illness that should attend it:

            the snake (which represents cunning) is still in the cage. This means that he is still loyal and can restrain himself from taking action

No, this my hand will rather the multitudinous seas incarnadine, making the green one red:

            The snake is out of the cage and rising up to the crown. The door to the cage was opened when he killed the man who he had sworn loyalty to. From here the action only escalates. This quote is also displayed in how the paint starts off green at the bottom and slowly turns red. I chose to do this because the green represents peace and safety, but just like in the play the green is contaminated by the red (which stands for danger).

To be thus is nothing, But to be safely thus:

            The snake has almost reached the crown. At this point Macbeth reveals that he will do anything to maintain his powerful position, even if that does mean harming more than one life.

When our actions do not, our fears do make us traitors:

            The snake is now at the crown and is beginning to coil itself around it. This represents how protective he is of his power, he has gone through much bloodshed and the cunning has already taken full control at this point there is no shame in killing for his own cause. He became a traitor long ago and now feels no guilt.

Those he commands move only in command, nothing in love:

            The snake has a firm grip on the crown and is in position to attack anything that threatens him. At this point in the play Macbeth doesn’t even care about being loved and admired, he gave up on that in the very beginning. He destroyed all respect for him when he killed one who was only good to him and Macbeth knows that. Now he is prepared for battle and he will stop at nothing.

 It took a bit of plan on how I wanted to display my ideas on paper. I knew from the beginning what the basic idea was but it I had to keep adjusting it to see how to involve the quotes. In the end I set it up like a timeline. Adding the quotes confused me in the beginning because I did not want then to distract from the painting itself. I turned it into a timeline so that it was easy to see the different stages. I am proud of how I involved symbolism that displays Macbeth's conscious well. For example how the green is contaminated by red. Green representing safety and growth, red representing bloodshed and danger. If I had a chance to change it I would simply spend more time working on it because I would like to touch up certain aspects of it. Maybe even try using multiple mediums . I learned many different styles of presentation. I learned the importance of not being to concise, yet being engaging at the same time. making sure to clearly explain the connection between your project and your papers thesis is extremely important.In my presentation I felt confident in what I was saying. I was proud of my work and I believe that that showed in how I was able to explain the choices I made. Usually I am not as confident in work because I am not as enthusiastic about it. I am glad that I chose a project that interested me.

Si Martin Luther King Jr. viste a la pintura de Guernica, pensaría mucho sobre unos de los simbulos. El pensaría bombilla representa las palabras de Dios, y que el quiere para nosotros. La bebe muerto representa los jóvenes que son perdido. La bandera representa EEUU y el sueño Americano. El mano con la espada representaría la guerra con maldad. La puerta representaría nuestros conexión con Dios.  

Esta obra de arte tiene un mensaje para el público. Representa las cosas malas de la guerra. El toro simboliza el país de España y la fuerza de este país. La vela representa la esperanza después de la guerra y un futuro más positivo. Este es alguna noticia para el público y el país de España. La madre con su bebe muerte representa la muerte durante la guerra civil. Además, simboliza el sufrimiento y el dolor de la gente. La bombilla representa las bombas durante la guerra. Los dos palabras están muy similar. Finamente, este representa el pasado y el fin de la guerra.

​Si Martin Luther King Jr. viste a la pintura de Guernica, pensaría mucho sobre unos de los simbulos. 

El pensaría bombilla representa las palabras de Dios, y que el quiere para nosotros. 

La bebe muerto representa los jóvenes que son perdido. 

La bandera representa EEUU y el sueño Americano.

El mano con la espada representaría la guerra con maldad. 

La puerta representaría nuestros conexión con Dios.  

El torro  represente la gobinero antipatico porque la gobinero crean miedo y peligro. Es flur y bombilla representa  esperanza porque siempre hay esperanza. El fuego se reprsenta la lunca en la mundo porque el fuego puede destruyir  todos cosa, se no las paramos. La luz represente el  prueba porque la luz toce  todos los gentes.

Cuando veo esta pintura, tengo hombre.  Pienso que el toro representaba la comida, y tambien el caballo.  En un otro lado pienso que todo en esta pintura representaba la comida, todo excepto la espada.  Tengo miedo de la espada.  Pienso que la bombilla y la vela son similar a el sol, especialmente la vela. 

Este retrato representa mucho para muchos otros, pero para mí representa a la guerra entre dos diferentes grupos. Representa la tragedia de la guerra. La muerte de muchos y los dias oscuro, pero este retrato también tiene algunas cosas que representan la esperanza. Un día mejor, un nuevo mañana como la flor. Esto representa la mejor mañana. Que incluso en las guerras personas tengan la esperanza de que un día las cosas van a cambiar.

El toro : es una grande animal, esta muy feo. por que se ve asi ?

El bebe y la mama : que lo paso el bebe ?! me siento mal por la mama y el bebe, muy triste, que dios los vendiga

La senora que se quiere ir : por que se va tan loca? se ve que se quiere ir !

La fantasma : se ve tan feo, y muy espantosa.


El senor en el piso : que lo paso ? espero que este bien. que dios este con el  

El caballo es mi mascota Mystery. Pero, no es verde. Es blanco. ¿Por que no tiene color? Picasso tiene mucho imaginación porque estas personas son muy extraño. Por ejemplo la persona de la derecha no tiene piernas.

Es un fiesta en allí porque tiene personas y animales y un fantasma en uno cuarto. El bebe de izquierda es durmiendo. ¿Por qué?

Una persona es en el piso pero no es durmiendo. ¿Qué pasa?

Este pintura es muy interesante. Es mucho en este que hace mi a pienso sobre cosas. 


La bombilla proximo a la vela, a mi, significado como la viejos y los jovenes trabajar con uno y otro a dar esperanza a otros. 

La Fantasma representaba las almas de los gentes quien son muerte y triste porque de la guerra. 

La flor oculto en el detrás de la mano con la espada significado resistencia mediante dolor y muerte. 

Este obra tiene ideas se conflictos. Tiene peligro y muerte con vida nueva y esperanza. En el bajo es una cuerpa en piezas con un guchillo en un mano. Es un simbulo del fin de un tiempo muy triste, peligro, y difícil para la gente.  En la alta es una fantasma con un vela que representa los espiritos de la muerte que tiene esperanza por el futuro. En los brazos de una mamá es un bebe muerte que representa la muerta de la gente inocente. 

This project is an extension of an analytical paper about the play Macbeth. By choosing a character a poem was written about Lady Macbeth, Macbeth's wife. It explains the changes Lady Macbeth went through throughout the play. The poem is based on a thesis from the essay. The thesis is Lady Macbeth, the most hyper-sexual and controlling woman grew weaker as the days passed after she came to the realization of what she had done to Duncan. 

The process for writing the poem was simple. I gathered words to describe Lady Macbeth  and her actions, while quoting her at the same time. To get a good sense of a free verse poem, sample poems were researched. Researching free verse poems helped me get a sense of how the poem should look and the rhythm of it.

There were a couple difficulties I encountered while trying to complete this project. One being, I had to use the correct word, as little as possible, and incorporate the quotes into the poem. Even though the poem is free verse, trying to use/find different words to describe what was happening in the play was difficult. 

I am most proud of how the poem turned out. I began to believe the poem wasn’t going to come out well. The turnout of the project was good. Over coming the difficulties of writing this poem was exciting. I’m proud that I got the project finished in a short amount of time and I went through with writing a poem instead of doing something else. I enjoyed writing the poem. 

While watching my other classmates present or glancing at their project I learned a lot. I learn how to interpret the play in many different ways. These different was wouldn’t have been done if it were my project. A lot of thought and time was put towards these projects.  All of the effort put into the project showed through the final product. It was really cool to see everyone else’s ideas and learn in many different ways by many different projects. 

During this project I learned that I could write a poem really well, in a short amount of time. Writing a poem in a short amount of time about a play is hard. Especially if you don’t write poems a lot. Writing this poem made me realize that i’m pretty good at writing poems. I should write them more often. 

Here I’m positioned, 

Alone with nothing in hand in utter silence,

And the only thing that

keeps me company are the

Vivid barriers that change positions every time 

the silence is broken. 

Who am I?

I don’t know what happened to me,

Becoming a man was my goal,

Not having emotions and dealing with regret

Who was I?

Things that broke silence 

Make me cringe

Silence soothed my mind 

Going over my thoughts but then memories

Horrible memories would come 

Into play one by one

Who am I?

Memories when I stated

things such as

“Under my battlements. Come, you spirits

That tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here,

And fill me from the crown to the toe top-full

Of direst cruelty.”

Who was I?

Praying to the spirits seemed to 

Be only right. 

They could grant my wishes,

And change my features

Who am I?

I criticized people,

Just so they could prove me wrong

What did that get me ?

My heart is pounding 

People can hear it

Is it that loud? What’s happened

Who am I?

“My hands are of your color, but I shame , To wear a heart so white.”

I used to be the boss and control things

That was my position. 

The queen that wore the pants of me and

my husbands relationship 

Who was I?

Completing deeds, struggling

Not emotionless, not regret less

Greed is gone, “Naught’s had, all’s spent,

Where our desire is got without content

‘Tis safer to be that which we destroy

Than by destruction dwell in doubtful joy.”

Who am I?

In this state of depression,

Not talking to anyone,

Seeing things no one else can see,

Not being able to erase the evidence from 

my body parts 

“Here’s the smell of the blood still. 

All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand. 

Oh, Oh, Oh!"

Who was I?

People are beginning to feel sorry for me,

Saying “I would not have such a heart,

In my boom for the dignity of the whole body”

Who am I?

My heart is pounding faster and faster,

Voices, I hear voices,

They surround this room

Louder and louder they get

I CAN’T take it!

DEATH, death is the only way

I take my knife and plunge it in my stomach

Four times, that’s all it took 

The voices are gone, but i’m not free of regret

What have I done? 

   I made a piano collection of various piano pieces for the creative extension of the Macbeth quote analysis. I used little parts of the five pieces that I thought best describes Macbeth in each act. I mostly used minor songs to describe Macbeth because I wanted people to pity him and remember why he became hungry for power and became a killing machine. Therefore, I used more sad songs than loud, dark songs. This video below shows the change in Macbeth's character journey and the downfall of his life. To begin with, Macbeth was a decent man, but his hunger for power and dominance led him to become a killing machine. 

   My process of crafting the creative portion of this project was fun but somewhat difficult. First, I had to choose five piano pieces that I wanted to play to describe Macbeth. When I chose five of them, I had to choose the parts I think would connect naturally to the next piece I was going to play. Then, I had to learn the parts and film the whole thing. It took me hours to do this process.

   Difficulties that I encountered while doing this project was there were visitors in the house when I was filming the video. My solution was just to wait until it was somewhat quiet and start playing again. I had to cut out a lot of scenes in the film because of all the talking. It took me about 20 minutes just to this filmed. Another problem that i encountered was that my iMovie kept closing. That resulted in me filming over and over until one film was saved.

  I am proud about how I overcame the difficulties and got to film the video. I am also proud that I learned the pieces well in a short amount of time. 

   If I had a chance to change my creative portion, I would try harder to compose a piano piece on my own rather than using piano pieces that has been composed by other pianists. 

   From doing this project, I learned a lot from my colleagues and myself. From my colleagues, I learned what talents and skills they have. I also learned other creative ideas that I could’ve done. From myself, I learned that I don’t approve myself if something is not how I want it to be. I also learned that I like my final products to be something I will be proud of.
