Paisley and Shapes
'Paisley and Shapes' is a color art of blues and purples. When I first saw this design, and I was not sure what I was going to do with it. I saw the circles and dots and what looked like little suns, and even the weird flowers, and it hit me shades of blues and some purple would look good and send thoughts of a cool or even a cold area. What do you think? Please share your comments.

Fall
Here is a color art I entitled 'Fall' and I used crayons of autumnal colors of browns, reds, oranges, a little green since there are still some green at this time of year. I think I even put in some yellow. Fall is my favorite time of year and that is why I decided to 'color' this using fall colors for I was going to at the start depict a 'Spring' but for some reason I was thinking about something else that made me think Fall. Hope to see your comments and suggestions.

Circle Flowers
Here is another crayon art piece that I stated above entitled 'Circle Flowers'. I used blues, green, pink, and a few other colors. The leaves are green that is the only way that I know these must be some sort of flower or flowers. I almost used my colored pencils and thought what if I colored each segment of each flower a different color, and then I thought that would be pretty but a lot of switching between colors. Also, I do not have that many different shades of colored pencils. Hope you like this one and please comment.

Butterflies
"Butterflies" is a page from an adult coloring book. I used crayons to fill in the designs. This could be a worksheet for preschool or kindergarten children or even could be used in a special education classroom. The children can count and match the colors of each butterfly. How many orange butterflies? How many blue butterflies? Count the antennas of all the butterflies. It could also lead to a nature/science lesson. Please comment.

person
'person' is a pencil sketch that I did trying to show action of some kind. It is a sketch using my version of Cubism using cubes, squares, triangles and rectangles of various sizes. I see a person trying to throw a ball of sorts. I wonder what you see and I hope to read some comments that I would truly appreciate. I have more pictures and color art posted here on Vocal in ART and CRITIQUE. If you are interested in seeing more of my artwork I have published several coloring books and an art book at 'artwanted.com'.

[ ONE PIECE 1119+ ] spoiler
Greetings 500 brothers, a warm welcome to the 500 brothers who have recently reconnected with the General Story Channel. We appreciate the ongoing feedback and value the audience's input for positive change. However, alongside constructive comments, there is a notable presence of negative feedback that has left the team disheartened. It appears that some may have missed the video explanation and the Community Tab announcement. To clarify once more, the General Story Channel emphasizes the importance of fair distribution of content and has decided to cease collaboration on Euro season channel sales. Long-time followers may have noticed a decline in recording quality due to health issues faced by the channel's main figure. This has led to delays in video posting, requiring the team to wait for recordings to be edited, causing strain, particularly for the Editor. Despite efforts to continue with the current setup, the decision was made to introduce a new, more reliable figure to ensure the channel's content delivery remains consistent. Moving forward, support for this direction is appreciated. Switching gears to the topic of voice alterations, the reference to Sang One Piece highlights the reluctance towards change within society. Adaptation is essential to stay relevant and avoid obsolescence, a concept evident in the evolution of characters like Luffy. While some fans may resist such changes, they are necessary for the narrative's progression, especially in a long-running series like One Piece. The need for Luffy to enhance his abilities aligns with the escalating challenges he faces, reinforcing the creator's vision for character development. Despite initial skepticism, fans eventually come to accept these transformations as integral to the storyline's advancement. As the narrative unfolds, characters evolve to meet the demands of new adversaries and situations, showcasing the depth of storytelling within the series. The recent revelations in chapter 1119 serve as a reminder of the characters' growth and the shifting dynamics within the narrative. Noteworthy displays of strength from characters like Luffy, Sanji, Frankie, and Bonnie underscore their development and set the stage for further compelling storytelling.

Exploring the themes of woman empowerment through Netflix's Trigger Warning
Exploring the themes of woman empowerment through Netflix's Trigger Warning As we evolve into the changing nuances of contemporary cinema, the stereotypical portrayals of women as passive and nurturing abodes for their masculine figures have seen a new light with female representation as thought-provoking leaders and competent individuals who are no damsels in distress waiting for their saviours. Netflix’s recent movie Trigger Warning, starring Jessica Alibi, is a similar hard-hitting tale. Jessica Alba channels her inner maverick as she plays a serving U.S. military officer who must return home after a tragic incident. Despite the film's excellent craftsmanship, some of its subtleties revert to the same clichés that can be found in other Hollywood productions. Let's examine the themes of women's empowerment that the movie explores in more detail.
