Sonnet response (sonnet 130)
In this sonnet i think Shakespeare is kind of talking about reality and in a way almost making fun of fantasy. I feel like he does that when saying things like his love is nothing like the sun because that's reality. As to fantasy would be more like my love is like the sun. Shakespeare pretty much throughout sonnet 130 is saying that how people describe their loves is not true and whether its an exaggeration or not this is how my love is to me. He also says things that can be even more romantic then comparing your love to things like the sun. He might say his love isn't as good as this and this and this but in the end he basically says either way my love is good enough for me.

Marc Chagall poem
His art is special never fails to excite
many people say they can look at his art for hours at night
from a man playing fiddle to one floating in air
when you witness his art its hard not to stare
art was not very big where he began his life
but Marc created many masterpieces, despite
with churches on the ground
and snow all around
this man's art can easily astound
three heads held sky ward with eyes that are glancing
watching the huge fiddle man play while hes dancing
so here's to you painter your art topped them all
your paintings are priceless your name is Chagall.

"The Fiddler" by Marc Chagall (1912)
Something unique that I have noticed in all of Chagall’s paintings is that he never makes anything one color. Whether it’s the snowy floor or the fiddler’s plain clothing Chagall always adds another color to show something. I like that because I think it can make a painting more interesting when a number of colors are being mixed up. That’s why I think this painting is special, because it shows that about his art style more then in any other picture.
Marc Chagall was born in Russia in 1887. At a young age in school he began to grow and interest for art. Living in a poor Jewish neighborhood, art was not very popular. Chagall later began to grow a desire to become an artist. His mother sent him to go to an art school for a month but Marc did not enjoy it. Chagall then began to connect his life to his art. Images from his childhood often made their way into his art. In 1910 Marc started painting in France. In 1914 he went to paint in Russia and then back in France again in 1923. No matter where he painted Chagall’s art was amazing and he was viewed as one of the greatest artists ever.
