英语作文my favourite painting

Answer 1

my favourite painting
My favourite painting is Francisco de Goya's picture "The half-submerged Dog". This is one of the fourteen Black Paintings which Goya painted directly onto the walls of his house know as "Villa of the Deaf Man" near to the Manzanares river. These paintings were removed before the house was demolished and we can watch most of them in the Museo del Prado in Madrid.

They are known as Black Paintings because of dark pigments and dark gloomy theme. In these paintings we can see witches, two men trying to kill each other with a cane, Saturn devouring his children, etc. We found violence, sadness, human being's wickedness, difficulties and abandonment. There are a lot of different theories about "The half-submerged Dog", however this painting remains an enigma.

What strikes you most is that this picture borders on abstraction (we can see only dog's head and sand). In fact, we can consider Goya as a precursor of various artistic movements in the Twentieth Century such as Expressionism and Abstraction.

Answer 2

A hobby can be almost anything a person likes to do in his spare time. Hobbyists raise pets, build model ships, weave bas-kets, or carve soap figures and so on. In a word, hobbies offer en-joyment, friendship, knowledge and relaxation.
Then, what is my hobby? Well, what I like most is singing. I began to sing songs when I was very young. My uncle was studying in a college then, so he could sing lots of songs, and he taught me several songs. I showed great interests in the music then, for they were pleasing to ears and easy to sing. My uncle told me they were called pop songs.
When I grew up, my music teacher found that I had a good voice, so she sent me to the Children's Palace to study vocal mu-sic. From then on, I began my vocal music training. And then I knew there were several kinds of songs, like folk songs, pop songs and so on. What I had learned most was the songs for children. They were all simple ones but our teacher trained us very strictly. We practiced how to produce sound and how to make our expres-sion more natural and more pleasing. Those simple training didn't reduce my interest in singing at all and I won awards one after another in several kinds of competition. Actually I began to make up a dream of becoming a famous singer in the future.
