Painting

Painting is a form of art in which one uses different types of colors, textures, and brush strokes to create specific images on a canvas or even a digital surface. A painting can vary based on the type of colors that the painter uses. For example, painters use oil-based colors to create oil paintings and water-based colors to create watercolor paintings. While using watercolors, painters dilute colors using water and agitate the combination to create new shades. The genre of a painting also varies depending upon what is painted. Some painters prefer abstract forms of paintings, while some prefer realistic ones that mimic photographs of a person or a scene.
Understanding a painting and the thought process behind it is also a form of art. Some paintings may be quite complex, with layers of meanings to them. Although every painting depicts a certain theme, it is more challenging to understand themes in abstract art than in realistic art.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

the author is showing that it is the insatisfaction of basic needs that brings about the protests such as the strikes.if workers do not earn enough to buy food and feed their families and themselves in order to continue working, what is the use of working? besides, another message from the author is that of the owners of factories should be worried about ensuring their furure by having a second and third generation of workers in their industries.if they do not hear the workers demands, they will not have any more workers to make their pockets full.
