Claims of the Day

Here are my claims of choice in no particular order.
  • JimmehFTW - The painting's gritty texture, balanced use of space, selective use of colour, and dark tone leave the viewer a sense of depressing realization leading to a climactic finish. 
  • Doctor Von Brown  - In Gene Kelly's "Good Morning" [an elegantly exquisite setting and excitingly exuberant style is] conveyed [through the delicate, and brisk attire and the frantic yet hysterical emotion of the actors.] 
  • The Average Life of a Teenage Bookworm - In this flash mob by Todrick Hall, the mischievous and adventurous expressions, jubilant sounds, and bustling moves, show the explosive creativity and confident energy of the dancers. 
  • Bud in the Garden - Leonid Afremov's vibrant use of color, flowing appearance, and realistic, silky texture illustrates a feeling of whimsical relaxation and majestic euphoria. 
  • Intrusion of the Soul - In the album art for United Paper People's Kisschasy, the foreboding colors, overwhelming space, and perilous actions reflect a sense of destructive loneliness and irrational wonder.
I really enjoyed JimmehFTW's and The Average Life of a Teenage Bookworm's claims. For JimmehFTW, I liked the words he used. "Gritty" and "depressing realization" are really strong words, and they efficiently convey the author's thoughts. For The Average Life of a Teenage Bookworm, I love the words "jubilant" and "bustling" as well as the phrase "explosive creativity." I would never have described creativity as "explosive," but it works very well.

Intrusion of the Soul's album art is my favorite artifact. It's such a cool picture, and I kind of want to get the album now. Really badly.
