Reflection
The use of graphic is more expressive than a written genre. Using graphics
attracts more attention and more audience as well. Graphic expression is more
popular these days and more entertaining. People have many views towards
power, so its important to have perspective to various ideas of what power
means. There are powers that exists that we are not aware that it is power, by
focusing on power we can uncover those powers. Power is important to human,
so its always necessary to keep track of the powers surrounding us. I personally
discovered that there are many powers that I was not aware of and never even
thought about. I honestly now have a different view towards power in general. I
am hoping my audience would be open minded and accept the ideas that I have
in mind. I do consider some of my graphics to be hard to understand, but in the
end its my own ideas. The most graphics that were personally involved to me
would be the power of people graphic and the power of love. They are two
important powers that each one of us own, and we never use it. If everyone
really noticed this power and recognized it, it would change our way of life. I
personally have a strong belief in both, so I was happy to represent them to my
audience. The most helpful image for me was the power of people image
because it did give me a sense of idea of what I was dealing with. If I were not to
have that image, I would have had a hard time understanding the idea. This
process has helped me understand the concept of power more. It would benefit
me by having a wider view of power and now I look at the concept of power
more than what I used to.

It is a Pokmon card; it was published on tower.com. It
was found by searching Pokmon cards on Google. Its
main point is that this particular Pokmon card is the
strongest and most powerful card of all the original
Pokmon cards. The ones who created this Pokmon
are a Japanese animi company.
Pokmon is mainly for children and young teens I was
a part of that audience
when I was a child, but I wouldnt consider myself
anymore. When I was a part of the audience I believed
that this certain Pokmon card was extremely powerful.
This piece represents power to the audience of
Pokmon.
I would question if this Pokmon card would still
represent power to the future generations, but I dont
really think that it would. The only thing that I really
gained by going through this picture is that it brought
me great memories and I got to remember what this
picture meant to us and how powerful it was. This piece
made me think of the difference in what we used to
think of power and what we think of power now. We
used to be pretty much innocent as children.




paradigm


It is an illustrated drawing of the God. It
was found through Google by searching
the word God. It is a few years old. Main
point is showing an idea of what god could
look like. It was created by one of
Wikipedias artists, and of course was
sponsored by Wikipedia. The primary
audiences are the readers of Wikipedia. I
would consider anyone to be the audience
as long as they are readers and
researchers. I have no beliefs toward that
piece as I have my own image of God in
my mind, but this piece might change
some details in my own image. This image
urges that God is a huge strong man in
the sky with a beard of course. If people
would believe so theyd have some kind of
fear of god. I gained from this piece an
idea and image of what people consider
god to be or at least this particular artist.



TRACE





It is a created cartoon image giving an idea. The
intended audiences are the general people and
citizens. I am a part of this audience; I am a part of
the true power of people that he is informing us
about. I am very open to such ideas, but this one I
do agree with strongly. An artist from
consiouslifenews.com created this piece. The
current world situation prompted the author to do
such thing. The author simply wants to inform
people of their true power, and perhaps would like
them to use that power in making this world a better
place.
