1.Leonardo Da Vinci suggests that in achieving the principles discussed here, “a man can become a
genius”. Do you agree? Defend your answer.
Leonardo was a wise man, I believe. He was just a normal person at first, born with the capabilities to
learn just like us, one can be smart with their ambition if he tries to become better than being better, I
believe it is possible that a normal person can be a genius in a specific talent.
2.After you learned the seven Da Vincian principles, do you agree that art and science can go together?
These two major aspects have been treated different as I experienced living in this environment, but I
agree that art and science can coexist together for the reason that art is an expression to what science has
discovered.

B. Essay: Write a 5-sentence essay that answers the question: “Who decides what art means?” (10 pts)
Art is appreciated from the very tiny stroke on the painting, lowest key of the notes, smallest word of the
poem to its biggest image provided but then, who are the righteous individual to decide on the meaning of
the art? I believe that art has multiple meanings from the different perception of the eyes, every
individual is allowed to judge whether an art is amusing, nonetheless no one could tell its absolute
message besides the creator. The creator must be the person to decide the meaning of an art for it is his
own creative thinking that brought an idea to an image. Yes, we have been provided with diverse
approaches to understand an art but I do not agree that we could understand the deeper meaning of the art
without the verification of the creator. In conclusion the creator is the person to decide the reality inside
an art.

From the myth I have read I can conclude that these are the values of T’boli; reliability, and
thoughtfulness. I can say that they have the latter values for the reason that deities think for the good of
others.
Legend
3.What truths about man are conveyed by the story?
From the Legend of T’boli, I believe that man was described as a being that can not be gentle and placid

couple to live despite of the circumstances.
