Love & Hate
I chose this project because it seemed the easiest to do. My overall vision wasn't the love and hate with the arms. I first started off drawing jhene aiko but it became too hard. Then towards the end of the project I decided to change up vision. I wanted to get deep and personal with my drawing. I've been going through a lot right now and the words love and hate both describe how I feel. The hands are reaching out for help. My current work relates to my past work because all I did/do is draw things that represent me. My work reflects the world I live in because many teenagers dealing with a possibility of their parents getting a divorce are conflicted with very different emotions and I think the best words are love and hate.
Linoleum Cut project
I decided to chose the linoleum cut project because I wanted to try something different. i never carved out anything before. Also, when I looked up the project it looked really cool. For my project I a heart with a crown on it and in the middle of the heart there was a butterfly. The outer part of my drawing was white and so was the butterfly. The heart was black and so was the crown. I found this project to be very time consuming because it took at least 3 days to carve out what I wanted to be white. Also it was a lot to do but at the end it was all worth it. My project came out better than expected because I thought I was messing up while I was carving. From the looks it's really nice. If I could go back and change anything I would. I would change the date i turned this in and i would have a working computer. Other than that every thing is fine.
My Color Wheel Project
I chose lips for my color wheel project because I thought it would be more creative than everyone else just doing the basics of a circle. I made them really big because I've been told I have big lips unfortunately. I'm not saying the one's who did a circle weren't being creative I just wanted to do something more....complex. Overall, I really like my project. There are some disadvantages with me with this project but I honestly think I did a really good job at catching back up. I expect my audience to really like my project as much as i like it.
I think my current work has gotten better over the years of my previous work because last year I had no idea what I was doing. Now I'm more experienced with art and the criteria. The thing that inspired my art was..myself. I wanted to do something that was about me. I chose a flaw that I didn't like about myself and turned it into something beautiful. The artist that inspired me was Joan Mitchell. Her art is so fascinating because you can't say what it is or what it's not. It's complicated and that's how I look at myself. I'm complicated, that's why I like her art. A new thing I learned was that painting over paint numerous times can ruin the board. I learned that the hard way.
In conclusion, I really liked this art project. I think it fits me and I was influenced by Joan Mitchell. Her complicated art. I really expect my viewers to like my art because not only is it neat and colorful, it's also very creative.
My 6 word Memoir
A ordinary room, a messy life
My room is where I find peace with myself at. My room is where I can be me without anyone judging me. My room is where I go to think. My room is where I lock myself at to block out my family when I don't want to be bothered. My room is my room. It's not to big. It's not too small. And it's not a lot of fashion to it and I like it the way it is. It represents me. But it doesn't represents my life. My life is full of kayos and how my room is set up does not relate to it.
Street Art
The meaning of the art work I created is that I'm queen M. The M is the initial in my first name. Also, it's my 2 favorite colors, blue and purple. The thing that inspired my work was the fact that I love that my full name has 3 M's. Also, everyone has a high confidence and think they all that and i like crowns so i drew one on top of my M. I chose the location I chose because it needed to be somewhere high because I stand high and tall. This project changed my perspective of art because I used to think art was just great beautiful drawings of animals people buildings etc. But now I know it can be more than that. It can be irregular shapes everywhere splatter pain anything from your imagination is art. This project changed my perspective of art as I travel the city because around the city I see a bunch of graffiti. I always used to think graffiti wasn't art but after watching that movie, it's like everything around me changed my perspective. I didn't even think about the people that did it could be famous. Honestly everyone has a different meaning of art and mine is what come from your imagination. It can be something real or something from your imagination.
The Internet And You
Who Am I Online
Who Am I Online
Online I am very silly person. I post funny videos and if I’m in my feelings I post quotes that match how I feel. I also take nice pictures of me and my friends. Most of my picture consist of me with my friends. I think people perceive me as silly, fun, and maybe sad at times. I also believe people think I’m pretty I just don’t believe them when they tell me. I consider if my post will effect how people look at me. Before i ever post things, I think to myself, “Will my mother approve of this” and will this make people look at me differently. The pros of me posting or sharing online is that I get to really express myself how i feel without anyone being disrespectful. Now don’t get me wrong, people do say ignorant stuff online but not on my pages. I don’t allow that. I don’t have any cons that i can think of. If we have lack of control online, we might not get perceived in the right way. We also may get judged. We want to have a good immediacy online, not a bad one because if we do there may be unnecessary drama going on online. Finally, if we aren’t careful with the things we post (permanence) it might get back around to us in a rude awakening. With that being said, I hope and think people think I am a good person with feelings online because I want to be perceived in a good way not a bad way. That’s the last thing I want to happen. I wouldn’t mind if employers looked at my online status. I could care less if they did. I wouldn’t mind because I have nothing to hide. The only thing I care about is if they didn’t ask me if they could. Free speech is being able to state your opinion. But, freedom of speech doesn’t protect slander, fighting words, bullying, and dis-respectfulness. On the opposite hand, they protect other people opinions. It makes it possible for them to tell others how they feel. An internet troll is someone that starts up something online just to get under your skin. There are trolls everywhere. We can stop trolling by ignoring their comments, not arguing back, and blocking them. With all of this being said, here are some tips. DO NOT post anything online that can change your appearance or make you have a bad reputation. DO NOT react to trolls. DO NOT say your opinion with disrespect. DO NOT post anything that can harm you. DO NOT post anything that disobeys the law.
