HEY MIS. NAJLA, THIS IS FOR THE EXTRA CREDIT (:

Basketball is one of the great sports. I chose this topic because I like playing basketball.
Basically basketball is a team that has 5 players. They try to score points against the other team by placing a ball through a 10 foot high hoop . The team with more points wins the game.

They score point's by shooting the ball through the basket from above. The ball gets into the basket by :Dunking or slamming from any distance. The ball can be moved on the court by passing it between teammates. Basketball is one of the most popular sports. Basketball is an indoor game that played on a basket court

Nowadays , basketball has developed many techniques of shooting, passing, offensive and defensive structures. The tallest members of a team plays center, but the shorter player plays the guard positions.

Vincent van Gogh (Graphic work )



Old Man with his Head in his Hands.

(At Eternity's Gate)

This graphic work touched me because it is so emotional. Problems are dealt with tears and sadness.

The problem is "small issues" which could seem so big to us.

It's painful, but the key is to avoid it when the problems are temporary.


Relax your body and quiet your mind. Breathe deeply, there you have it. A quite soul with no problems.

I've chosen this painting maybe because it represents some of me .

I can see that the mood for this picture is: so sad, hopeless, down and regretting the past and fearing the future. It makes me feel unhappy.

However, we must not let our fears or tears back us down.

I like the man not showing his face. Just his body doing all the talking.

I love the sketching of the picture. I like it more in black and white than if it's colored.

Vincent van Gogh has a unique sense of style. No one can copy his sense of drawing or painting.
