Doodle for Google

11/29/2016

Picture
I see an advancement in science and technology in the future. To represent this into my doodle I made the capital “G” from smoke of a rocket in in orbit, the first “o” into a gear to symbolize our forward movement as a species and added an alien to symbolize the thing humans have yet to discover, and I made the second “o” into a planet also to symbolize discovery. The lower case “g” is supposed to be a cord which connects science to creativity. My “l” is a robot because I believe in the future robots and machines will do a lot of our work for us. My “E” was made to be an anonymous person with a colorful mind to represent the creative Outside-the-box thinking that will be needed to accomplish all these advancements.

Mind Map

1. I imagine in the future there could be cars that drive, stop, and park themselves. The car will be so independent that there will a HD movie screen on the windshield.
2.People will communicate through using microchips implanted in their wrists that will send and recieve calls to any phone number
3. There could be robot teachers (programmed by bing and google) to instruct students online from the comfort of their homes. There will be educational commercials on every station.
4. I doubt will be world peace or equality any time soon unless everyone learns to listen and accept one another and respect and understand people who are different from us

Pottery

I developed skills by learning how to use a potter's wheel and different techniques such as throwing, centering, and compressing. I also learned how to make a lid for one the containers I made (slideshow)
I explored by throwing practice bowls and pots on the wheel. Through experimentation I made my pot/bowl making skills better. I've used clay so It isn't a new medium, but it is a new concept of throwing on the wheel.
I engage and persist  I didn't get most of my pots right the first try, and learning to center wasn't very easy for me. Despite being frustrated I still practice and created some decent looking bowls/cup

Earth Art

11/9/2016

To make our earth art, my partner and I collected leaves, rocks and red berries
To assemble the structure we stacked flat rocks, and placed red berries in the crevices to give it color. Next we laid a halo of leafs around the structure because we decided their should be more variation of color
Some problems we faced while making this art piece were having different ideas and views but we worked together in the end.

Here are pictures displaying our earth art after whole month of rain and high winds. I suspect the weather is the reason the sculture was destroyed. The rain made the berries very soggy and strong winds may have knocked it down. Then again it's right next to the school it may've very well been the students who destrroyed it.

Styrofoam Project

Develop Skill:
I developed a new skill. I used styrofoam as my main material. I used a knife and hot glue as my tools, 
Picture
Engage and Persist:
​My personal goal was to  create a styrofoam artwork that was at least somewhat attractive. I think my artwork is good for a first try 
Picture
Explore:
This was my first time using styrofoam to make art, so I used a small cup first just to test out how smoothly the knife would cut. Looking back I think I should've  cut the 2nd cup into more shapes so that it looks less like a cup

Fun Theory

​
To me the fun theory is making average things fun to do in order to make people practice good habits without realise that practicing good habits.  An example of the fun theory would be putting a short 20 second funny video in front of the sinks in order to encourage people to wash their hands after using the restroom.

Embrace The Shake

10/27/2016

 
when you embrace the shake you learn to work with mistakes. Embracing the  shake means not getting upset about a flaw and  using it to your advantage. Some of the most beautiful art pieces have hidden mistakes in them. Phil Hansen had nerve damage which limited his artistic ability. This allowed to think outside of the box

Haunted house pumpkin

For this pumpkin I painted the entire thing light blue. Next I took a small sponge and gradually transitioned to a dark purple at the top, while leaving a light blue at the bottom. For the stars I took a toothbrush and flicked cream coloured paint all around the pumpkin.
For the foreground I painted floating yellow-orange blocks to be the lights in the house. This part took a while because the back ground was much darker than the foreground in some areas. I had to layer paint to make them yellow orange instead of green.
After I finished the yellow windows I painted the silhouette of the house and a few tomb stones and a tree to make it seem spooky. Lastly I took a sponge and created a good sized moon with the same cream coloured paint I used for the stars with bird silhouettes

Sunset Silhouette

First I tested the colors to see which scheme I wanted my final product to be. I decided on cooler shades rather than traditional warm sunset colors. I used purples and blues
I used watercolor because I wanted my colors to look light and free flowing. To get this look I soaked my watercolor paper, dropped paint all over the water, and tilted the paper to let the colors run together.
Lastly I made my dead tree silhouette. To do this I dried my paper and painted on bare trees with black watercolor. Then I put in blue highlights along the bases and branches of the trees to add a pop of color. After I dried my trees I spritzed the whole thing with water. The water lifted some of the watercolor that made faded, vintage looking spots when I blotted the water away.

lack of creativity

Planning
Originally as an artist I wanted to use the shape of the lockers in school to create the lines I wanted. I considered some of the suggestions from my peers and I started to think it was too boring so I changed the size of the squares shifted them so they weren't perfectly aligned.

Exploring
As an artist I explored with paint using green, blue and purple as my base colors. Then I added white to make different shades of each color. Originally I was planning on making the individual squares one solid color, but Mrs. Shuman suggested I paint my squares ombre.

Reflecting
I'm not currently finished with this piece, nor does it have a name but looking back I'm glad  I took advice from my peers because made my art look better than what I had originally.
