I'm choosing two images to analyse, one which I believe to be successful and one which I believe to not be.
In the instance of this image, I believe that this would succeed in delivering the message for people who celebrate the pagan calendar, marking the period of the Spring Equinox, called Ostara, after the Germanic goddess of the springtime. This image is sentimental in how Ostara is cuddling a rabbit, and from Germanic legend, the Easter bunny hides the eggs for the children to find on the egg hunt. Rabbits are also symbolic of the onset of springtime, and of family.
This image is called Buddha, and it doesn't succeed with me, because I don't understand how this image comes across in any way to depict Buddha. In my opinion, this lack of understanding is the cause for my inability to communicate and articulate its meaning, and if I were to have any clue, I would be able to articulate it. To me, it's a series of scribbles and a greater explanation deserves to be given as to why this would be called Buddha.
Activity 12 is completed and I'm four more activities closer to starting on my first assignment.
