This is me and my best friend samantha. We love art class!

I know I'm a terrible person, but it was part of the project! Our assignment was to make an Abode Photoshop picture describing something bad was going to happen. I'm really enjoying making photoshop pictures and hope to continue with these assignments. You have to admit the puppy's adorable!

Today in class we used the wonders of Adobe Photoshop to create this masterpiece. Mr. Sands taught us how to use the cloning tool to combine the frog and the tongue. I really enjoyed this project because it wasn't too difficult to accomplish and it turned out looking great. I look forward to making another Photoshop project.

Over the past week we have been creating our own clay bowls. I chose to do an intriguing pattern consisting of swirls that fit together nicely. Even though it's hard to see my design in the picture, after I glaze over the pottery I think it will turn out really good.

Doing this project made me very proud of myself not only for my work but being able to make a child's day. For this project, we recieved monster pictures drawn by kindergardeners and our job was to bring them to life using sculpey clay. I feel my piece came out very successful and I hope to do something similar in near future. Many of the students could not work with the sculpy clay because it was too hard to soften, but a few others along with myself used it and it turned out very nicely. I wish I could be there too see the little kids' faces when they recive their packaged monsters.

 So far, I've really enjoyed this project! I love how my piece is coming out as well. I cannot wait to see it finished. It's surely a challenge to count the tiny boxes on your picture and match it perfectly on the cardboard.

 I think using skittles is definably  the best candy selection for the project. They don't fall off and dry great! It's also awesome to be able to eat a delicious snack while you work (but not all of them of course)!

Working on the Skittle Project has been a blast of fun! Socializing with my table and listening to loud music with the class has made art one the class I look forward to during the day.

I feel my hardwork really paid off in this drawing. I'm very proud of myself. Finding as many shapes on her face I could find definately made the project easier. If I could do this project over I would have paid more attention to the nose. It's definately my least favorite part of the drawing. Overall I feel it was a JOB WELL DONE! :)
