1. Regardless of whether a project was successful or not, describe the one where you learned, grew, or developed the most from? Please explain. I think i developed the most from doing any kind of pen art. The reason for this is because if you mess up it's really difficult to fix. So messing up taught me new ways of fixing it and that it's not always a bad thing if things don't go as planned. 2. What did you find most difficult about this class? What could be done to solve this problem in the issue? The most difficult thing for me was thinking of things to draw or paint. Especially with the last project, since it was so broad, it was hard for me to think of things to do. Honestly, i think over the semester i have become a lot better at using my imagination and being more creative. It's still difficult sometimes, but it's easier to think of things to do now. 3.Do over: If given the opportunity, which project would you do over? Describe why and how you would redo this project. If i had the opportunity, I would re-do my art journaling. I really didn't like the way mine turned out. I had a good plan for it, but it just didn't work out. I would re-do it by just choosing different things and mediums to use for my layers. 4. Sketchbook: pick any warm-up from your sketchbook that you found beneficial, interesting or simply felt you handled well. Describe the activity and reason for selecting it above others. I really enjoyed doing the facial feature drawings. It was really beneficial to me because i stink at drawing noses. I do wish though that we would have finished it, but even just doing the eye and nose helped. I selected it above others because it's something i really wanted to work on. 5. How does art influence the design of products historically? Art is the basis of multiple products in the industry today. For example, back then pottery makers would make their pots have curved edges and rounder shapes. Today modern bottles use the same shape idea from the pottery art back then. Another example would be the work of Keith Herring. His at work inspired a clothing like in Forever 21! Art is very important in modern society I could not get the picture to load onto my blog, but here is a link to one of Keith Herring's works. https://integratedartsacademy.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/keith_haring.png |

Portraits (photography with Alyssa)
Create Your Own: Non-Objective Art Series I do not have a picture for my plans, but I basically was looking at random art on pinterest and thought it would be really cool to do just random art. I also do not have any in progress photos, but I can tell you that when I was doing my art I didn't really have any plan for it, I kinda just did it.
I stand for hard work, determination, and that "never gonna give up" attitude when it comes to sports and my school work.
The word my piece is representing is happy. It successful represents this word because of the bright/happy colors. The first layer of my piece was newspaper (mainly words) and then my second layer was tissue paper. The colors were light oranges and pinks and a little blue this way you could still see the words from the newspaper. I then put some comics on from a newspaper and did white tissue paper with sparkles on it so you could see the comic, but it would have sparkles. My third layer was yellow paint and pink ink sponged together. My fourth layer was black bubble wrap, which i put around the outside of the paper. My last layer was 3-d dragon flies. Its hard to tell in the picture, but the body of the dragon fly is pasted to the paper and the wings are coming off the page.
(We couldn't put the video on here so we sent it to you in an email.)
I worked with Alyssa on this project. She did the picture taking and put the video together and i drew most of the pictures. I was really happy with the idea of the video, but it would have liked to change the way the video was put together. We didn't take the pictures in the app so it messed it all up when we made the video My limitation for this project was using blueberry and strawberry juice, so i chose to splatter it all over the page. My main problem was thinking that it wasn't enough. I really wanted to do something cooler with it, but there wasn't anything i could think of. I do really love the way it turned out though, so i decided to just keep it the way it is.
I really enjoyed this mini lesson. I have always enjoyed working with clay, but this time i learned more about detailing and how different tools could be used to add detail. I think that the ombre color in the fish turned out very successful. If i were to do something different i would probably make the scales more noticeable and change the size and color of the eyes.
From this mini lesson i learned that it takes some creativity to create something out of just something random. I guess if you already had an idea in mind it would be easier, but if not it takes some thinking. I think the flowers turned out pretty successful. I liked the way they turned out and the colors. If i were to do it again i would change the way the part of the hot air balloon where you stand looks and add some more detail to it.
