14. the painting • Guernica is gray, black and white, 11 feet tall and 25.6 feet wide, canvas painted in oil. • Can be seen at the Museo Reina Sofia in Madrid. • Guernica shows suffering people, animals and buildings wrenched by violence and chaos.

15. images • Many “hidden” images can be found in the painting. • Probably the most talked about is a light bulb that blazes over a suffering horses head. • The bare bulb of the torturer’s cell. • Picasso’s intended symbolism is related to the Spanish word for light bulb; “bombilla”, which makes an allusion to “bomb” and therefore signifies the destructing effect technology can have on society.

29. “painting with scissors”

30. Casal Aveda Institute’s interpretation of: “painting with scissors”

31. Esthiology is inspired by the “Amulet” This artist interpretation of a hand was usually made of silver because it symbolized mercy. Iron was sometimes used because it helped to drive away demons. The amulet solves the issues of a person’s lack of confidence on 2 levels. The first being the lack of belief in one’s abilities; the second being the lack of knowledge regarding the future.

32. our amulet • Features a stamped pattern of the sun around the border which represents the infinite creative energy that is available to the individual. • A moon; whose function is to give form to this energy and help realize it’s full potential. • Vines to symbolize strong and lasting friendship.

33. Esthiology Hard to see “touch” in the background. It’s written in a shade of blue on a cream background. • different shades of purple. • The descriptions of the elements surround the amulet. • The background of the entire image is the watermark….. “touch”

34. consider this… • Licensed vs. Professional • Hairdresser vs. Hair Stylist • Job vs. Career • Technician vs. Master
