My Eminent Person ~ Leonardo Da Vinci

__Task 1 __

The following link will take you to my timeline ~ __[|Leonardo Da Vinci's Tmeline]__  __Task 2__  1. Write about the personally and character of this person. What are his well-known traits and ideals? What are some little-known qualities that you have learned about?

- Leonardo Da Vinci was a very intelligent, creative, artistic and astute man. He was a humble man and wasn't one for argument. He was very multi-talented and was also an established architect, anatomist, engineer, inventor and of course and artist.

2. Discuss the influences in this person's early life that have developed his personality and character. What were their talents? What were soime experiences that might have foreshadowed that this person would become successful or inspirational? What obstacles did this person have to overcome to achieve what they have?

- Little is known about Leonardo's childhood yet it is known that he was never noticed as a gifted child. Once he got access to materials, the creative was discovered. Soon that would be noticed and he would receive and invitation to work alongside Andrea Del Verrocchio, who was a talented artist at the time.

3. If you could meet this person today, what two important questions would you like to ask him? How do you think he would answer each question?

3.1. Did you enjoy your childhood?  - I wouldn't say that I had a respectable childhood but I am glad with the upbringing I had, yet moving  from mother to father was exhausting. <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;"> <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;">3.2. If you were able to look back at your life, would you be happy with what you achieved? <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;"> - I don't think my parents would have predicted my success and neither would I. I am extremely happy of  <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;"> what I achieved and the amazing viewership I was blessed with. <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;"> <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;">4. To conclude your biography you need to write a short paragraph as to why this person you have chosen is somebody that you are inspired by. <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;"> <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;">I chose Leonardo Da Vinci as he was a prominent figure who shaped the early <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace; font-size: 120%;">Renaissance. He is a household <span style="font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace; font-size: 120%;">name and not only was he known for his painting but also inventing; things such as a blueprint for a flying machine and drilling machines. He also had a passion for anatomy and was a notable scientist. I enjoyed researching Leonardo Da Vinci and have had incite into the life of one of histories greatest achievers.
