Weekend Journal
In the weekend I did stuff and things. Firstly on Friday night me and dad went out to look for a deer. We were driving down the track and we saw a deer on the bush line with the spotlight but it was running like speedy Gonzales to the bush. we didn't get it though, Later that night we saw another one up on a hill but it was too far away. On Saturday i went to Theo and Nikos house to get a ride into league. We lost to cobden but we scored 2 tries. On Sunday I woke up at 9:30 and help around the house I took some stuff to the dump and then I shot at some old full beer cans. I shot one of the backs out of the cans and beer exploded everywhere. Then I made cinnamon and chocolate chip doughnuts. That was my weekend.

The Kitchen Stove Review
The Kitchen stove review
The Kitchen Stove by Eric Wilson created in 1943 is an abstract piece of art that is a collage depicting a kitchen stove. In the picture if you look at the piece of art in the right angles you can see these things: a knife, a cupboard, a cat and mouse, some tinned food, a teapot and keys. The background is a badge colour that fits perfectly with the more vibrant foreground colors that pop out at you. He has used the cubism style and also used paints and collage. All of the items in this piece are stacked up on top of each other in a collage form so that you can see the items on the bottom briefly.
This is a wonderfully done piece of art that makes me feel mystified and second guessing myself, wanting to know more.
For me at a first glance this artwork looks like the front window of a music shop with all of the instruments lined up behind each other; I would call it the music shop. But once I learned the title of the art was called the kitchen stove, you start to see the normal things you find in the kitchen but on a collage.
This artwork makes me feel mystified because you can’t decide what the piece really is. My mind says to me it’s a music shop but the artist deliberately makes you second guess yourself when looking at this piece.
I can make a connection to this piece of art because I have tend to help out in the kitchen. Sometimes I cut and peel the vegetables and prepare the food.
Overall this piece of art Is beautiful and well rounded, that makes me feel deceived whenever I see the artwork.
