What is beauty

             I thought Tuesdays class was very interesting we had a debate on what is beauty and we
 we even broke up into groups to come up with a way to describe beauty my group came up with beauty is that, that is pleasing to the senses which I thought was a great way to describe beauty.
we even spoke about Keates version of beauty, beauty is truth which I do not agree with sometimes the truth is ugly like Hamlet said one may wear a smile and yet be a villain.
We also had 3 painting to choose from to pick which one best fits the word beauty.







        For me the choice was easy I choose Birth of Venus I found this painting to be truly breath taking for me this work of art is beauty at it's best. I enjoyed Olympia but I did not find it near as beautiful as Birth of Venus and last and certainly lest for me was Woman and a Bicycle I did not like this painting at all but to each his own. Like I said in the beginning of this blog I really enjoyed Tuesdays class.
