     Today in class we talked about what language, and art actually mean. Language is way more then a class you have to take, it is everything from thoughts and ideas to actions, written and spoken language. Art is a type of language where an artist or anyone can display their thoughts and ideas in a type of message.

     Language is sending a message. There are many different ways to deliver the message:

• Verbal
• Written
• Musical
• Emotion (eg. smiling=happy) 
• Physical (eg. Slamming a door=angry)
• Artistically
• Ideas

     Extending on our lesson of sending a message we did an activity where we drew lines with human traits (happy, sad, angry, etc.) Although they were all lines drawn with the same marker they all looked different and had a different message.

     A line is...a part of art and language it can send a message. Whether it's part of a drawing or just a single line could have more meaning then meets the eye.
