The whole year I have been in art we have done many art projects. We have drawn painted, wet brushed made 3d stuff like a book and piñata. The 3 main projects I like the most are: the piñata, the painting of monochromatic and making the book. I had fun and enjoyed these projects especially the piñata. In the monochromatic painting we had to use only one color and only change the color with tint (white) and shade (black). I draw painted a river that surrounded by trees a big grew mountains in the back. For the piñata project we blew a balloon up try to do a shape of whatever we want like a fish moon, or anything. Try want, then you had to cover the balloon with wet glued paper. Let the paper dry on the balloon shape. After that paint the piñata or cover it with paper mashie. For the book we had to fold paper in half and make holes in the middle of the folded paper. Then we had to bind the papers by sewing trough the wholes so they would be connected together. After that cut a cardboard that can surround the folded paper to make the cover .then glue on the bind papers on to the middle of the cardboard. After that we could decorate our cover how ever we wanted. All these projects took more than one day to do. I used paint for all these projects I did. Something different about them is that I used different materials for all of them, for the piñata I used soaked glue in water, balloons and paper mashie. For the book we used a needle, string, cardboard and hot glue gun. For the monochromatic painting I only used 3 colors: pink, white and black. All my project came out great and I turned it all on time. I enjoyed making all these projects. They are all the same but also very different.
My experience in art class has been the best. I’ve enjoyed it very much and learned a lot that I didn’t know in the past. We did many assignments and projects in the class that were very interesting. I was told to pick my top three favorite and it was a difficult choice but I managed to pick them perfectly. My first favorite project that I made was the paper book. The goal was to create the book from scratch and make it your own. I really enjoyed this project due to the fact that I did not know how to make a book nor create one so it was a very challenging assignment. My second favorite project would have to be the poster I made comparing two different projects that would be presented in the International festival. It took me a very long time to create the poster the way I wanted it to look because I’m not the best drawer but in my opinion, I worked hard, I’m proud of my drawing and it was successful . The last, not least, favorite project would be the making of the piñata. It was the most exciting project I’ve made yet! We also made the piñata from scratch and took a while to have it completely finished. At first it was difficult because I had no idea what I was going to do but after looking at a key chain that was on my backpack which was a turtle, I chose to make a turtle as my piñata. I noticed many similarities in all three or at least in two out of three projects. One similarity was that these three projects were the most difficult, in my opinion. They all took more than two classes to work on and you even have to dedicate some if your free time to continue finishing it. Another similarity that I noticed was that the piñata and the two country poster project were both global in some way. The piñata is usually typical in Central America and in Mexico and the poster was a comparison of two totally different countries, Guatemala and Algeria. A last similarity that comes to mind would be that the piñata and the book had to be made from scratch. Some differences I noticed in the three projects I showed were the level of difficulty in each. I think the hardest project was the book, next to the piñata and lastly the poster. Another difference I noticed was that when making the book, there were a lot of steps to take including book binding and sewing sheets of papers together while when creating the piñata, all there really was to it was gluing cut sheets of newspaper dipped in glue mixed with water. Another difference between the projects was the time frame. The longest project was the piñata which took about five class periods while the poster took around only four and the book three. The last difference I can think of would have to be the way the projects were created. The piñatas were basically made of newspaper, paper mache, and glue mixed in water; the book was made with a lot of sewing, cutting, and hot gluing; last the poster board was made with mostly drawing, colors, and markers. These three projects might have similarities and many differences but one broad similarity would be that they all have to do with art and are very eye opening. It makes students realize to appreciate things more, sort of like books because books are difficult to make and piñatas are difficult also. I also learned a lot of different things about both countries that I compare in the poster board project that I didn’t know of before. I can honestly say that my art class was very rewarding and I am going to miss my art class ad my wonderful art teacher once I graduate.
Art Final In my portfolio I chose my three favorite projects which are the piñata, cactus painting and the collage. I chose these projects because they show that I tried my best to complete them and that they were fun to make.
The piñata is based on my nickname (Mickey) and it is Mickey Mouse the shape of the piñata is circular it got its shape because of a balloon that was covered in paper Mache moist with glue .It has kind of circular cheeks and round ears that I made out of carton and recycled paper. I made my piñata a nose that was made of paper and tape, my piñata is painted all black except for the part where his face is located at. In his face his eyes and mouth are painted too. My cactus painting is made out of carton and in top of the carton I painted the cactus the color I chose to combined with white and black to make new colors to paint the cactus and its surroundings, which was red .Also in that same project we had to make the same painting but using construction paper, we had to draw the painting in pencil and then cut little pieces of construction paper glue them not overlapping each other. In the collage we looked over different magazines to cut things, words, people ect..That describes you and put them all together to create one drawing I chose this alien that I decided to add a human features on it that would look around at my name, nickname, and people I glued that look like they are floating in the air.
The similarities in these projects are that they took time to be finished; I used paint in all of them, I use glue on the three and I used paper on them too. The differences were that 1 was a piñata, 1 was painting, and 1 a collage, also the piñata took the most time to be completed because it needed a lot of patience. One more difference is that the painting I had to used the same painting to create a new painting but with different materials. With the collage the difference was that it was the easiest to make but the most creative because I had to use my likes to create it.
In conclusion I think that these projects are the most important because they show what I have learned about art this year and how I would use it for something else next year, also I got good grades on these projects which show that I did tried my best effort on them. Thank you… :) DarlingRomero
Alejandro Leal 2nd period Art class Final Being in art class has influence me in the principles of art. It could be drawings, culture, dancing, beauty, or something appealing. Art is around us we cant avoid it, we have to learn it not avoid it. Being with Mr. Renner has show me a new path of art and how is interpret in different ways. In art I learn many cultures for an example one of my project was to compare to different countries, México with Bolivia. Both of these countries had a different background, different culture, and different languages. In both countries their famous because of the beautiful pyramids. The pyramids had many history and many tells that need to be here. I made a pyramid that unites two countries into one common structure of art. The 2nd piece of art I made is a book. A book made of cartoon and recycle equipments. We made trash to something useful, it was an amazing idea. The third thing I made in class was a piñata. The piñata was a challenging but fun project because I had to experience new materials and different perspective to build an original piñata. My idea was to create a different piñata from my others classmate. My idea was to make something that I like and which is airplane. I created a jet piñata it came out good but not perfect. It has tought me that making something one had to a have a blue print to make sure the final comes out well. In art class I learnt the culture of art and it very hard to understand it but easy to imagine it.
This year in Art class I've learned stuff that I haven't even heard before. We made a whole variety of projects. We used different methods for these projects.It was difficult to choose 3 of my favorite projects since I liked all of them, but in the end I managed to choose them well.
I ended up choosing the monochromatic painting we did the book we made from scratch and the pinata we did. For the book we had to learn how to book bind , it was challenging because I've never made a real book before. For this project we could other decorate it by painting it or by using a cloth as a book cover. i chose to use a cloth simply because i thought the outcome would be way neater than if we had used paint and I was correct.My book turned out really good i was very satisfied with it. For the monochromatic painting we had to mix different paint colors to match our piece of tile we had chosen. The tile I chose at the beginning didn't workout for me, so I had to choose another one. After matching the tile we had to paint a picture of a landscape we chose. in order to match the shadows of the picture we had to mix white and black to the original paint.For my third project which is the pinata we had blow a balloon and we had to mix water with glue then dipping strips of paper to it. After that we had to put it on to our pinata. We had to follow this step until out balloon was completely covered.After that it was up to us to design the pinata. I chose mine to have a bird flying, and the background being decorated it with tissue paper having it look almost like colorful grass. I really enjoyed this project because the last time i ever made one was in Middle School.
Although this 3 projects were all different they were the similar in many ways. I used paint for both the monochromatic painting and the pinata.All of the projects had steps we had to follow, and i was pretty common with them. Also some materials that we used for all of the projects were being repeated like the scissors. And last but not least i put all my effort on these three projects.
These three projects had differences as well. The three projects didn't have the same vocabulary. Also different lessons were being taught and learned in these three projects. We also used different materials for example the only time we used the hot glue gun was when we were doing our book.All of the projects took different amount of time to finish them. I have to say that the one that took the greatest amount of time was the pinata due to the fact that we had to let it dry and so.
Over all, all of the projects I made were very fun to make. And I was proud for the final outcome of all of them. I worked hard and used my time wisely and I think the grade I got was really well deserved.
Alejandra Ramos.. This semester in art I did these 3 projects that I liked the most like THE BOOK, OF DISORITION GRIDHE TWO COUNTIRES that have something in common and lastly THE PINATA. Which was super fun making!
The Book was really easy to make all you needed was a piece of paper, cardboard, a sowing needle, and a long piece of string. It was not difficult making it. It was actually very easy like I said before and the fun part is making the outside cover to whatever you want to, like drawing designs putting color in to it so that it wont look all sad and brown.
My 2 project was the distortion grid I liked drawing it because you change an image to something else when you draw lines all over the place it makes the image look either bigger in size or look way different in the image itself.
The third project was the piñata. Now that one was fun, because we got to make one with whatever favorite thing we liked! I made my piñata a panda’s head! But there easy to make to all you needed was straps of paper, glue, and a balloon and the rest you did with your hands! When I finished my panda piñata it looked awesome because I painted it after it dried.
The similarities that these 3 projects have are that there all a form of ART and you used things to make them; you take your time and make them look like a piece of ART!!
The differences is that they are all different from each other like in the way there designed and the types of project or names there representing.
In conclusion the order I would put my 3 projects from the one I loved and the one I liked.. - THE DISTORTION GRID - THE PINATA - THE BOOK! But I had fun making these 3 projects drawing them and painting or designing them. They were the only 3 that I tried my best on
This year in Art 1, we did many interesting and fun projects. I chose a few projects we did this semester that I think I did well on. Those projects were the piñata, the monochromatic painting, and the handmade book. I think I did a good job in these projects and I got a good grade on them.
These projects had many similarities, but differences as well. The three projects that I made all required some work. For the piñata, we used balloons and paper mache to make a shape. We made it into anything we wanted. Once the paper dried, we could paint it or add tissue paper to decorate it. My piñata was shaped into a planet. It had purple and blue colors and it had lightning bolts around it. For the monochromatic painting, we painted a picture that we selected. We chose a colored tile, in my case dark purple, and mixed paints to match that color. We used different shades and tints of the color for the painting. In the book project, we made a homemade book using paper, cardboard, and string. We cut pieces of paper and sewed them together using string and cardboard to tighten it. Afterwards, we could decorate the cover if we wanted to. I chose to wrap my book in cloth. In the end, I was happy with the result.
The projects that I chose had a few similarities between them. An important one was that we could make the projects our own style. We could choose whatever shape we wanted for the piñata, the colors we wanted for our painting, and what we wanted to decorate on our book. Also, these projects were very time consuming. All of these projects took at least three class periods to finish. Another similarity that I can make is that in these three projects, I used cardboard. I used cardboard as a canvas to paint my monochromatic painting, to use it as the base of the book, and to make lightning bolts for my piñata.
My projects had a few differences as well. We learned different things from making these projects. In the piñata project, we learned how to make and use paper mache. For the homemade book, we learned about binding and sewing paper together. In the monochromatic painting, we learned about the different shades and tints of colors. Also, different materials were used for these projects. Paper, glue, and balloons were used for the piñata. Paint, cardboard, and pictures were used for the monochromatic painting. For the book, we used cardboard, paper, string, needles, hot glue, and cloth.
Overall, I feel proud of the work I’ve done this year. Some of the ones I think I did my best on were the book, piñata, and monochromatic painting. However, I think I could have done better if I put a bit more effort into it. I usually got distracted easily but I turned in all the projects on time and I liked the result. Art 1 was a great class for me this year, as I could express my ideas and creativity freely.
Leslie Granados Period 2 Art 1! This year in Art I’ve learned so many awesome things everyday in Art I’m able to learn so many cool and interesting things. All the different projects that we’ve been learning this year has definitely impacted on my art. It’s safe to say that I still am not the best artist in the class but thanks to the inspiring words Mr. Renner is able to tell us every day it makes me want to do better in the class even though I sometimes slack off in the class. Now the following three projects are some projects that I believe I did really well on. The first project that I really did well on and was actually my personal favorite was the collage that I finished with the Seventeen magazine clippings. That project came out really awesome because I was able to put in all of my favorite things into one paper and be able to show off the polychromatic colors into that paper it came out pretty sweet. The second project that I liked as well would be the book making. I loved having to act as if I was a real book creator it was a pretty easy thing to make and thankfully off of this project I was able to sew perfectly after that! The book seem to be the first project that I actually did really well on because I liked how it came out better than any previous projects I’ve done. In my results of the book it came out better than I have really imagined it the thing I liked about this the most was that I was able to say at the end of the day “Yeah I actually did that book”. Another project that I did outside of class was, I was able to combine to places where I am from into one project (just like a previous project we were able to do) it was really cool to put the Eiffel tower and a Mexican flag into one drawing as I redrew from a picture I saw. Some similarities that I saw in these threw projects that we have to do always stop in the middle of the project and just have that blank expression of “what do I do next?” so the similarity is that all of them seemed to have given me a blank expression but I was able to think it through, take a break and just start again on the project I never gave up on the project. Some differences in the three projects that I was able to notice is that I was able to see which project was harder which project was easy and stuff like that but I always seemed to finish the projects with the best effort I had. Three projects of course all seem to be different because in one project you had to sew in another you had to pick out pictures and glue them to a piece of paper and the last one you had to draw it all out then color it when we were finished. I’m so proud of myself for being able to stay focused on these projects and of course finishing it with the best results I was able to put out into the work. Thanks to Mr. Renner I’m improving in my work and I’m growing as an artist as well. Art 1 was the most relaxing class I’ve been in because we all seem to be in a good mood in Art even though sometimes the class does go out of control it’s been a really cool first and second semester with these classmates.
This whole freshman both semesters I have been in art class and I have done so many interesting projects. We have worked with so many materials some including those special art pencils, wash which is just a blend of ink and water; we have also used paint, and so many more. The three main projects of this semester that I mainly like was the little book, the piñata, and the frottage; the piñata was the most interesting one, because this project was really messy it was also the most interesting to me and I have never done a piñata before. The book to me was kind of easy to make because I already kind of know how to sow some things like in case I need to sow one of my shirts I already know how to at least fix them so they won’t look that bad when I go out in to the public. But any way the book was really easy it was only like 12 pieces of paper a few rectangular cardboards and a sowing needle with some string but at the same time it was kind of hard to make because it so many steps. Now the third project I liked was the frottage because I have always been interested in patter I may not show it but I especially like the patterns that get me dizzy, like illusions or something but any ways these were my favorite projects of the second semester. This year has been really interesting but I liked the second semester because we were able to do even more bigger projects, but for the hole year these three projects were my favorite.
Cristian Maldonado Art 2nd Period For my final project in my art class I will be using my piñata, mosaic and monochromatic painting. These are the three projects that I have chosen since I really do like them. I enjoyed working on them because of the techniques we used to create them. They were very interesting to do, especially since they were new ways of looking at art to me. They made me use more creativity than what I would normally use on any other project. They were some amazing projects to do in art. My piñata is a very balloon covered with Papier-mâché and shaped into Boo from Mario bros. The Papier-mâché is paper dipped into glue with water. After it dries out the paper hardens, and it takes the form of the balloon. The monochromatic painting was made using only one color with different shades and tints. We were supposed use a color we liked and change the shade and tint to match a picture we used. For the mosaic we just had to tear pieces of paper and put them into a certain area to make a picture. The projects are the same in many ways including color usage. They are also the same in the effort we put into completing the projects. All the effort put in it is quite similar since it shows how hard a person worked on it. They are very similar in showing how creative a person can be with different practices of art. With the similarities the projects also have differences. They all use different techniques to make something very amazing and interesting. The plans that were used makes the projects different, as in a piñata, a monochromatic painting and a mosaic were made. They all have a certain style to them, a piñata has a few values while the mosaic is a technique for art and so is the painting. They all derived from different people which give them their own personal differences. To my conclusion these three projects were the best I could have made. They gave me new techniques to make art and to look at what is art. They showed me that I can as creative as I want without any judgments. It has made me think that there are many different ways to create art using different styles or combining a few. Well art was really fun and it was nice having some awesome projects done.
My experience in art has been an experience that I will not forget. I’ve learned allot in art this year. I learned not to judge something so quickly because you never know the story behind it. I also learned that every art work has a meaning and a purpose. We did many projects in art this year. I liked some more than others but I enjoyed coming up with ways that I’m going to do each art project. One of my favorite art projects was comparing the culture of two different countries. For this project we had to come up with our own idea. Everyone had something different. I think it was one of my best work done for this year. The second project I choose is creating the book. I’ve tried so many times to create my own book but it never worked out. I’m glad that we did this project because I learned how to do something I’ve been trying to do for a long time. My third project was creating the Mosaic. This project took a while. We had to find mix paint to match the color we choose, and tearing pieces of paper to create a mosaic picture it might of took a while ,but it was fun. The difference between these projects was that one was more challenging than the other. Creating the book was one of the biggest challenges. The steps were at times confusing, but it came through and I think I did a pretty good job in the end. The similarity between these two projects was that I had to take time out of class to do it, especially the one where we had to compare the two cultures. These projects took allot of time and effort to create. In conclusion this year in art class was a great year. I enjoyed learning vocabulary words that I’ve never heard before like juxtaposition. I’ve learned so much and had fun. I worked hard on these projects at times I thought they would never work out. The projects turned out great in the end. This was a great year in art hopefully I can take art 2 next year.
Abigail Torres ART 1 4th period May 25, 2011 In high school, I took ART 1. I really enjoyed it as a class and as an entertainment. Looking back at the beginning of the school year, I really believe I improved not only as a student, but as an artist. My drawing skills have been increasing in quality. I believe that art is way to express yourself in whatever way you pleased. It is also a pattern that doesn’t necessarily have to be constant, but can also be a mixture or combination of tint. The outer space and the world are art, which inspires and shows real art. I did many artistic projects in art class. Three mainly were; the book which we had to do it with our own hands, first we had to fold paper and make three little mini books and sow them together. Finally we would glue it to a piece of cardboard and decorate the outside. Another one was a painting. This painting was very unique because we had to choose one specific color and find a way to make that color that was chosen. It was very interesting because we had to mix a lot of colors together to make the wanted color, but after a while we would find it and paint in a cardboard a certain picture. My picture was a broken boat in the middle of a drought, and far away mountains standing tall. The last one was the same picture but besides painting, we had to cut a bunch of little tiny pieces of color paper and glue them in to a piece of cardboard and trying to make the figure of the picture. It was very awesome making these art pieces because it’s all about how you’re going to make it with your own unique touch. Having to do many projects can be hard, but it can sometimes have similarities. One of them is that whatever project you do, you have to use perspective which is a formula for projecting the illusion of an art work. You have to be able to look at your work with different pints of views. This will help by letting you know that if it can’t be this, it can be that. Another similarity is putting effort in your work. I used the same effort on every piece of art because this way, I can be sure that I did my best and never procrastinate. This way you can be sure about your skills as much as your imagination. There are many more differences than similarities. In every work I had different objectives to achieve. For example in my art book I used imagination and common sense, which it helped me to finish and receive a good grade. Of course I didn’t use this same things to finish my painting, because in this piece I had to fallow a certain color pattern which includes paying attention to my tint, shade and what kind of temperature was my chosen color. As you can see I truly enjoyed taking ART 1, because it taught me different ways to view a piece of art, not just the outside picture but what the artist is trying to communicate through the colors, patterns etc. I hope other students enjoyed it as much, because this could help us in the future, not just the students who want to be artist but others in a different way. Hopefully I can continue taking art class in my sophomore year.
This semester being in art is a great thing, because I like art and three things I love that we did was THE BOOK, THE PINATA, and THE TWO COUNTRIES. The piñata was hard the most out of all, because you had to glue the paper correct and make sure that it was not mess up when you lay or sat it down. Then after that it was a correct way to let it dry, and if it didn’t come not the way you want it to come out you would have to recover it over and over again. My piñata come out not as I wanted it to, but I like it because I spent time doing it. The book it was hard and easy at the same time because when you had to cut the paper in to half that combined the other paper’s that you cut up that was easy and gluing the color paper on the back of your book. But when it came down to sowing the paper into the hole, it was difficult because it was a way that you had to sow it and you would had to started all over if you just mess one hole. Then when it came down to combined the whole book together it was evening harder. The two countries was one that a like because it was something I learn about with the two different countries. I had found out things I never knew about the countries.
The similarities that all three projects have ART in it somewhere and you use things to make it and time your time doing it. The differences are that they are different from each other and have different meanings. Also they have different design and colors. In conclusion the order that I put my projects was the piñata and the book and also the two countries. Because that the way I like them to be.
On my freshman year here at international high school, I took the art I class with Mr. Renner. I did a lot of projects throughout the year that were both completely different but somehow connected. I didn’t like the class at first, I’ll admit to that but I still got through it and worked as hard as I can to get a good finish product on every project I was assigned. There are 3 particular projects I would like to talk about, the 3 I’m the most proud of doing and the ones I enjoyed the most working on. The first project is the mosse, where I had to duplicate an image using tiny bits of paper and gluing them to creating a complete image. Next is the monochromatic painting, where I was to paint an image using one single color in all its different shades and tints. And last was my piñata, where I created from balloon, glue and paper Mache. One similarity I found in every one of these projects was: paper. They all involved it in some way, for example: the monochromatic painting was done on top of paper, the mosse was made from tiny bits of paper being glued together to form one single image. And the piata was made from covering a balloon with newspaper to harden the outer shell. Another similarity was color, which was the finishing touch for each one. One major difference was the ammount of time and patience it took to make each project. the mosse was the most time consuming and cutting paper into tiny bits and regluing to create a single image took more time and patience than both the piñata or the monochromatic painting. the painting took the most patience, trying to find the perfect shades and tints of my chosen color to create contrast and make the painting work. and the piñata seemed fairly easy even though waiting for it to dry and hardened wasn't the most exciting part of the project. in conclusion, each project assigned was unique in it's own way,but its also related to the previous and the next. and art I was a great learning expirience i'll keep with me throughout all high school and life.
Piñata Collage The Cactus In my portfolio I chose these 3 projects because they took me a lot of effort and I did my best to try to finish them and I had fun and got to be creative. We got to chose which ever color or thing we wanted to use. In my project of the piñata I did Stewie because I love him! I took my time and effort because I had to do a football shape head and I did his body with a cardboard and I wanted it to be perfect and because it was a major project. I like this one the most because we used paint and I love using paint! I had a lot of fun doing this project, now I have it hanging in my room and my mom takes pictures of it with my little cousins. I like the collage project because we got to look through magazines and find which pictures you liked or described you and cut them and combine them in a picture. I did mine plain and simple and creative because that’s how I am. I like how I did it plain but colorful and not boring or confusing. The cactus project I liked it but I didn’t at the same time because we had to cut a bunch of little pieces of paper and paste them in another paper to create a cactus and its background and not leave any empty spot. I liked it because it was creative and colorful and we could choose which ever color we want. My hand was cramping because we had to cut a lot of little pieces of paper and glue all of them and paste them. Similarities: I took my effort on all of them and because it was fun and creative, we didn’t have to use just a paper and pencil to do it. Differences: Some took more effort than others and some were more fun. And some were based on what I like and others don’t.
Art Final In my portfolio I chose my three favorite projects from this year that I really enjoyed doing. Piñata: I really liked doing the piñata because we got a balloon and were wondering “ how are we going to make a piñata using a balloon?” so you had to use your imagination, and I decided I wanted to do a heart. I used water, and strips of paper, paper Mache, cardboard, and glue to stick the paper to the balloon. Once it was dry It didn’t really come out the way I wanted it to. So I decided that I was gonna do it half human heart and half heart that we draw on papers. Then we painted it and let it dry and glued the paper mache to finish it off. Cactus: I liked drawing the cactus cause we got to choose the cactus we wanted to do and then we had to draw it out using only ink and the long thin stick. Then we got to color the cactus and I really liked the way it came out. I had actually tried my best on that project because I talked less and put more effort in the work. Collage: I liked doing the photo collage because we got to cut out paper from different magazines and glue them together on a piece of paper using our imagination. I don’t think I did my best in my collage but I think that with more time, and with more good pictures I would had a better collage.
Similarities: the similarities are that these projects were all based on art and I tried my very best on these three projects, and also that this year I learned new things about art and I don’t think of art of just something people just do, I know that people use art to describe themselves and to be very creative. Differences: some took more time then the others, and some I thought I would have never completed them.
Bryan Majano Art So hi my name is Bryan Majano three of my favorite projects this semester were the collage when we had to cut out pieces from magazines and make our own picture from the ones that we chose and it was pretty interesting for me because in this project we had to draw. And the other project was the piñata because it was fun making something we did with our own hands and everyone make something artistic out of the balloon and one of the artistic creation was the turtle because it looked artistic and it was fun making the balloon. The other one was the book because it was one of the hardest projects I did because we had to do it from scratch and we had to weave to make it which was really frustrating. They were similar because I made them and because they were made from scratch or something small and they were hard to make but really fun. They were different because some of them were fun to make but the balloon was different because everyone made a different project. And overall art was my favorite class this year because I find art very interesting and we could make our own thing and the class is very easy.
the 3 projects that i like the most were the collage the book and piñata the one i like the most was the collage because you can express yourself and put anything you want in it and the second one was the piñata and the last one i disliked but enjoyed doing was the book because it was kinda hard. I enjoyed all these project for the book we just need it to sow it and for the piñata we need it to mix glue with water to make it stick hard and for the collage we just needed pictures from magazines The similarities between these projects was that we needed to use paper and color and the differences were that all of them took diffrent time and equipment
Nana Wang 2nd Period 5/31/11 this year i had do a lot projects. i like three projects is book, monochromatic painting, and Piñata. i think my favorite project is Piñata. because the prject can we play imaginative. we can use a balloon or a lot balloons make to we want look. i'm do a dragon, it's red horn, big eyes. the idea is from my friend, he has red hair, i think is so cool. second one is monochromatic painting. i like the project because the project we use much color paper. when i do sky i use the yellow paper. i think it's funny. last one is book. i like the book project because i think the project is easy fot me. and i like paly needle. i like art class, because the class make my feel so sweet.
The whole year I have been in art we have done many art projects. We have drawn painted, wet brushed made 3d stuff like a book and piñata.
ReplyDeleteThe 3 main projects I like the most are: the piñata, the painting of monochromatic and making the book. I had fun and enjoyed these projects especially the piñata.
In the monochromatic painting we had to use only one color and only change the color with tint (white) and shade (black).
I draw painted a river that surrounded by trees a big grew mountains in the back.
For the piñata project we blew a balloon up try to do a shape of whatever we want like a fish moon, or anything. Try want, then you had to cover the balloon with wet glued paper. Let the paper dry on the balloon shape. After that paint the piñata or cover it with paper mashie. For the book we had to fold paper in half and make holes in the middle of the folded paper. Then we had to bind the papers by sewing trough the wholes so they would be connected together. After that cut a cardboard that can surround the folded paper to make the cover .then glue on the bind papers on to the middle of the cardboard. After that we could decorate our cover how ever we wanted.
All these projects took more than one day to do. I used paint for all these projects I did.
Something different about them is that I used different materials for all of them, for the piñata I used soaked glue in water, balloons and paper mashie. For the book we used a needle, string, cardboard and hot glue gun. For the monochromatic painting I only used 3 colors: pink, white and black.
All my project came out great and I turned it all on time. I enjoyed making all these projects. They are all the same but also very different.
My experience in art class has been the best. I’ve enjoyed it very much and learned a lot that I didn’t know in the past. We did many assignments and projects in the class that were very interesting. I was told to pick my top three favorite and it was a difficult choice but I managed to pick them perfectly.
ReplyDeleteMy first favorite project that I made was the paper book. The goal was to create the book from scratch and make it your own. I really enjoyed this project due to the fact that I did not know how to make a book nor create one so it was a very challenging assignment. My second favorite project would have to be the poster I made comparing two different projects that would be presented in the International festival. It took me a very long time to create the poster the way I wanted it to look because I’m not the best drawer but in my opinion, I worked hard, I’m proud of my drawing and it was successful . The last, not least, favorite project would be the making of the piñata. It was the most exciting project I’ve made yet! We also made the piñata from scratch and took a while to have it completely finished. At first it was difficult because I had no idea what I was going to do but after looking at a key chain that was on my backpack which was a turtle, I chose to make a turtle as my piñata.
I noticed many similarities in all three or at least in two out of three projects. One similarity was that these three projects were the most difficult, in my opinion. They all took more than two classes to work on and you even have to dedicate some if your free time to continue finishing it. Another similarity that I noticed was that the piñata and the two country poster project were both global in some way. The piñata is usually typical in Central America and in Mexico and the poster was a comparison of two totally different countries, Guatemala and Algeria. A last similarity that comes to mind would be that the piñata and the book had to be made from scratch.
Some differences I noticed in the three projects I showed were the level of difficulty in each. I think the hardest project was the book, next to the piñata and lastly the poster. Another difference I noticed was that when making the book, there were a lot of steps to take including book binding and sewing sheets of papers together while when creating the piñata, all there really was to it was gluing cut sheets of newspaper dipped in glue mixed with water. Another difference between the projects was the time frame. The longest project was the piñata which took about five class periods while the poster took around only four and the book three. The last difference I can think of would have to be the way the projects were created. The piñatas were basically made of newspaper, paper mache, and glue mixed in water; the book was made with a lot of sewing, cutting, and hot gluing; last the poster board was made with mostly drawing, colors, and markers.
These three projects might have similarities and many differences but one broad similarity would be that they all have to do with art and are very eye opening. It makes students realize to appreciate things more, sort of like books because books are difficult to make and piñatas are difficult also. I also learned a lot of different things about both countries that I compare in the poster board project that I didn’t know of before. I can honestly say that my art class was very rewarding and I am going to miss my art class ad my wonderful art teacher once I graduate.

Art Final
In my portfolio I chose my three favorite projects which are the piñata, cactus painting and the collage. I chose these projects because they show that I tried my best to complete them and that they were fun to make.
The piñata is based on my nickname (Mickey) and it is Mickey Mouse the shape of the piñata is circular it got its shape because of a balloon that was covered in paper Mache moist with glue .It has kind of circular cheeks and round ears that I made out of carton and recycled paper. I made my piñata a nose that was made of paper and tape, my piñata is painted all black except for the part where his face is located at. In his face his eyes and mouth are painted too. My cactus painting is made out of carton and in top of the carton I painted the cactus the color I chose to combined with white and black to make new colors to paint the cactus and its surroundings, which was red .Also in that same project we had to make the same painting but using construction paper, we had to draw the painting in pencil and then cut little pieces of construction paper glue them not overlapping each other. In the collage we looked over different magazines to cut things, words, people ect..That describes you and put them all together to create one drawing I chose this alien that I decided to add a human features on it that would look around at my name, nickname, and people I glued that look like they are floating in the air.
The similarities in these projects are that they took time to be finished; I used paint in all of them, I use glue on the three and I used paper on them too.
The differences were that 1 was a piñata, 1 was painting, and 1 a collage, also the piñata took the most time to be completed because it needed a lot of patience. One more difference is that the painting I had to used the same painting to create a new painting but with different materials. With the collage the difference was that it was the easiest to make but the most creative because I had to use my likes to create it.
In conclusion I think that these projects are the most important because they show what I have learned about art this year and how I would use it for something else next year, also I got good grades on these projects which show that I did tried my best effort on them.
Thank you… :) DarlingRomero

Final
Being in art class has influence me in the principles of art. It could be drawings, culture, dancing, beauty, or something appealing. Art is around us we cant avoid it, we have to learn it not avoid it. Being with Mr. Renner has show me a new path of art and how is interpret in different ways. In art I learn many cultures for an example one of my project was to compare to different countries, México with Bolivia. Both of these countries had a different background, different culture, and different languages. In both countries their famous because of the beautiful pyramids. The pyramids had many history and many tells that need to be here. I made a pyramid that unites two countries into one common structure of art. The 2nd piece of art I made is a book. A book made of cartoon and recycle equipments. We made trash to something useful, it was an amazing idea. The third thing I made in class was a piñata. The piñata was a challenging but fun project because I had to experience new materials and different perspective to build an original piñata. My idea was to create a different piñata from my others classmate. My idea was to make something that I like and which is airplane. I created a jet piñata it came out good but not perfect. It has tought me that making something one had to a have a blue print to make sure the final comes out well. In art class I learnt the culture of art and it very hard to understand it but easy to imagine it.
This year in Art class I've learned stuff that I haven't even heard before. We made a whole variety of projects. We used different methods for these projects.It was difficult to choose 3 of my favorite projects since I liked all of them, but in the end I managed to choose them well.
ReplyDeleteI ended up choosing the monochromatic painting we did the book we made from scratch and the pinata we did. For the book we had to learn how to book bind , it was challenging because I've never made a real book before. For this project we could other decorate it by painting it or by using a cloth as a book cover. i chose to use a cloth simply because i thought the outcome would be way neater than if we had used paint and I was correct.My book turned out really good i was very satisfied with it. For the monochromatic painting we had to mix different paint colors to match our piece of tile we had chosen. The tile I chose at the beginning didn't workout for me, so I had to choose another one. After matching the tile we had to paint a picture of a landscape we chose. in order to match the shadows of the picture we had to mix white and black to the original paint.For my third project which is the pinata we had blow a balloon and we had to mix water with glue then dipping strips of paper to it. After that we had to put it on to our pinata. We had to follow this step until out balloon was completely covered.After that it was up to us to design the pinata. I chose mine to have a bird flying, and the background being decorated it with tissue paper having it look almost like colorful grass. I really enjoyed this project because the last time i ever made one was in Middle School.
Although this 3 projects were all different they were the similar in many ways. I used paint for both the monochromatic painting and the pinata.All of the projects had steps we had to follow, and i was pretty common with them. Also some materials that we used for all of the projects were being repeated like the scissors. And last but not least i put all my effort on these three projects.
These three projects had differences as well. The three projects didn't have the same vocabulary. Also different lessons were being taught and learned in these three projects. We also used different materials for example the only time we used the hot glue gun was when we were doing our book.All of the projects took different amount of time to finish them. I have to say that the one that took the greatest amount of time was the pinata due to the fact that we had to let it dry and so.
Over all, all of the projects I made were very fun to make. And I was proud for the final outcome of all of them. I worked hard and used my time wisely and I think the grade I got was really well deserved.
Alejandra Ramos..
ReplyDeleteThis semester in art I did these 3 projects that I liked the most like THE BOOK, OF DISORITION GRIDHE TWO COUNTIRES that have something in common and lastly THE PINATA. Which was super fun making!
The Book was really easy to make all you needed was a piece of paper, cardboard, a sowing needle, and a long piece of string. It was not difficult making it. It was actually very easy like I said before and the fun part is making the outside cover to whatever you want to, like drawing designs putting color in to it so that it wont look all sad and brown.
My 2 project was the distortion grid I liked drawing it because you change an image to something else when you draw lines all over the place it makes the image look either bigger in size or look way different in the image itself.
The third project was the piñata. Now that one was fun, because we got to make one with whatever favorite thing we liked! I made my piñata a panda’s head! But there easy to make to all you needed was straps of paper, glue, and a balloon and the rest you did with your hands! When I finished my panda piñata it looked awesome because I painted it after it dried.
The similarities that these 3 projects have are that there all a form of ART and you used things to make them; you take your time and make them look like a piece of ART!!
The differences is that they are all different from each other like in the way there designed and the types of project or names there representing.
In conclusion the order I would put my 3 projects from the one I loved and the one I liked..
- THE DISTORTION GRID
- THE PINATA
- THE BOOK!
But I had fun making these 3 projects drawing them and painting or designing them. They were the only 3 that I tried my best on

Art Project Comparison
This year in Art 1, we did many interesting and fun projects. I chose a few projects we did this semester that I think I did well on. Those projects were the piñata, the monochromatic painting, and the handmade book. I think I did a good job in these projects and I got a good grade on them.
These projects had many similarities, but differences as well. The three projects that I made all required some work. For the piñata, we used balloons and paper mache to make a shape. We made it into anything we wanted. Once the paper dried, we could paint it or add tissue paper to decorate it. My piñata was shaped into a planet. It had purple and blue colors and it had lightning bolts around it. For the monochromatic painting, we painted a picture that we selected. We chose a colored tile, in my case dark purple, and mixed paints to match that color. We used different shades and tints of the color for the painting. In the book project, we made a homemade book using paper, cardboard, and string. We cut pieces of paper and sewed them together using string and cardboard to tighten it. Afterwards, we could decorate the cover if we wanted to. I chose to wrap my book in cloth. In the end, I was happy with the result.
The projects that I chose had a few similarities between them. An important one was that we could make the projects our own style. We could choose whatever shape we wanted for the piñata, the colors we wanted for our painting, and what we wanted to decorate on our book. Also, these projects were very time consuming. All of these projects took at least three class periods to finish. Another similarity that I can make is that in these three projects, I used cardboard. I used cardboard as a canvas to paint my monochromatic painting, to use it as the base of the book, and to make lightning bolts for my piñata.
My projects had a few differences as well. We learned different things from making these projects. In the piñata project, we learned how to make and use paper mache. For the homemade book, we learned about binding and sewing paper together. In the monochromatic painting, we learned about the different shades and tints of colors. Also, different materials were used for these projects. Paper, glue, and balloons were used for the piñata. Paint, cardboard, and pictures were used for the monochromatic painting. For the book, we used cardboard, paper, string, needles, hot glue, and cloth.
Overall, I feel proud of the work I’ve done this year. Some of the ones I think I did my best on were the book, piñata, and monochromatic painting. However, I think I could have done better if I put a bit more effort into it. I usually got distracted easily but I turned in all the projects on time and I liked the result. Art 1 was a great class for me this year, as I could express my ideas and creativity freely.

Art 1!
This year in Art I’ve learned so many awesome things everyday in Art I’m able to learn so many cool and interesting things. All the different projects that we’ve been learning this year has definitely impacted on my art. It’s safe to say that I still am not the best artist in the class but thanks to the inspiring words Mr. Renner is able to tell us every day it makes me want to do better in the class even though I sometimes slack off in the class. Now the following three projects are some projects that I believe I did really well on.
The first project that I really did well on and was actually my personal favorite was the collage that I finished with the Seventeen magazine clippings. That project came out really awesome because I was able to put in all of my favorite things into one paper and be able to show off the polychromatic colors into that paper it came out pretty sweet. The second project that I liked as well would be the book making. I loved having to act as if I was a real book creator it was a pretty easy thing to make and thankfully off of this project I was able to sew perfectly after that! The book seem to be the first project that I actually did really well on because I liked how it came out better than any previous projects I’ve done. In my results of the book it came out better than I have really imagined it the thing I liked about this the most was that I was able to say at the end of the day “Yeah I actually did that book”. Another project that I did outside of class was, I was able to combine to places where I am from into one project (just like a previous project we were able to do) it was really cool to put the Eiffel tower and a Mexican flag into one drawing as I redrew from a picture I saw.
Some similarities that I saw in these threw projects that we have to do always stop in the middle of the project and just have that blank expression of “what do I do next?” so the similarity is that all of them seemed to have given me a blank expression but I was able to think it through, take a break and just start again on the project I never gave up on the project.
Some differences in the three projects that I was able to notice is that I was able to see which project was harder which project was easy and stuff like that but I always seemed to finish the projects with the best effort I had. Three projects of course all seem to be different because in one project you had to sew in another you had to pick out pictures and glue them to a piece of paper and the last one you had to draw it all out then color it when we were finished.
I’m so proud of myself for being able to stay focused on these projects and of course finishing it with the best results I was able to put out into the work. Thanks to Mr. Renner I’m improving in my work and I’m growing as an artist as well. Art 1 was the most relaxing class I’ve been in because we all seem to be in a good mood in Art even though sometimes the class does go out of control it’s been a really cool first and second semester with these classmates.

This whole freshman both semesters I have been in art class and I have done so many interesting projects. We have worked with so many materials some including those special art pencils, wash which is just a blend of ink and water; we have also used paint, and so many more.
The three main projects of this semester that I mainly like was the little book, the piñata, and the frottage; the piñata was the most interesting one, because this project was really messy it was also the most interesting to me and I have never done a piñata before.
The book to me was kind of easy to make because I already kind of know how to sow some things like in case I need to sow one of my shirts I already know how to at least fix them so they won’t look that bad when I go out in to the public. But any way the book was really easy it was only like 12 pieces of paper a few rectangular cardboards and a sowing needle with some string but at the same time it was kind of hard to make because it so many steps.
Now the third project I liked was the frottage because I have always been interested in patter I may not show it but I especially like the patterns that get me dizzy, like illusions or something but any ways these were my favorite projects of the second semester.
This year has been really interesting but I liked the second semester because we were able to do even more bigger projects, but for the hole year these three projects were my favorite.

ReplyDeleteFor my final project in my art class I will be using my piñata, mosaic and monochromatic painting. These are the three projects that I have chosen since I really do like them. I enjoyed working on them because of the techniques we used to create them. They were very interesting to do, especially since they were new ways of looking at art to me. They made me use more creativity than what I would normally use on any other project. They were some amazing projects to do in art.
My piñata is a very balloon covered with Papier-mâché and shaped into Boo from Mario bros. The Papier-mâché is paper dipped into glue with water. After it dries out the paper hardens, and it takes the form of the balloon. The monochromatic painting was made using only one color with different shades and tints. We were supposed use a color we liked and change the shade and tint to match a picture we used. For the mosaic we just had to tear pieces of paper and put them into a certain area to make a picture.
The projects are the same in many ways including color usage. They are also the same in the effort we put into completing the projects. All the effort put in it is quite similar since it shows how hard a person worked on it. They are very similar in showing how creative a person can be with different practices of art.
With the similarities the projects also have differences. They all use different techniques to make something very amazing and interesting. The plans that were used makes the projects different, as in a piñata, a monochromatic painting and a mosaic were made. They all have a certain style to them, a piñata has a few values while the mosaic is a technique for art and so is the painting. They all derived from different people which give them their own personal differences.
To my conclusion these three projects were the best I could have made. They gave me new techniques to make art and to look at what is art. They showed me that I can as creative as I want without any judgments. It has made me think that there are many different ways to create art using different styles or combining a few. Well art was really fun and it was nice having some awesome projects done.

My experience in art has been an experience that I will not forget. I’ve learned allot in art this year. I learned not to judge something so quickly because you never know the story behind it. I also learned that every art work has a meaning and a purpose. We did many projects in art this year. I liked some more than others but I enjoyed coming up with ways that I’m going to do each art project.
One of my favorite art projects was comparing the culture of two different countries. For this project we had to come up with our own idea. Everyone had something different. I think it was one of my best work done for this year. The second project I choose is creating the book. I’ve tried so many times to create my own book but it never worked out. I’m glad that we did this project because I learned how to do something I’ve been trying to do for a long time. My third project was creating the Mosaic. This project took a while. We had to find mix paint to match the color we choose, and tearing pieces of paper to create a mosaic picture it might of took a while ,but it was fun.
The difference between these projects was that one was more challenging than the other. Creating the book was one of the biggest challenges. The steps were at times confusing, but it came through and I think I did a pretty good job in the end. The similarity between these two projects was that I had to take time out of class to do it, especially the one where we had to compare the two cultures. These projects took allot of time and effort to create.
In conclusion this year in art class was a great year. I enjoyed learning vocabulary words that I’ve never heard before like juxtaposition. I’ve learned so much and had fun. I worked hard on these projects at times I thought they would never work out. The projects turned out great in the end. This was a great year in art hopefully I can take art 2 next year.

In high school, I took ART 1. I really enjoyed it as a class and as an entertainment. Looking back at the beginning of the school year, I really believe I improved not only as a student, but as an artist. My drawing skills have been increasing in quality. I believe that art is way to express yourself in whatever way you pleased. It is also a pattern that doesn’t necessarily have to be constant, but can also be a mixture or combination of tint. The outer space and the world are art, which inspires and shows real art.
I did many artistic projects in art class. Three mainly were; the book which we had to do it with our own hands, first we had to fold paper and make three little mini books and sow them together. Finally we would glue it to a piece of cardboard and decorate the outside. Another one was a painting. This painting was very unique because we had to choose one specific color and find a way to make that color that was chosen. It was very interesting because we had to mix a lot of colors together to make the wanted color, but after a while we would find it and paint in a cardboard a certain picture. My picture was a broken boat in the middle of a drought, and far away mountains standing tall. The last one was the same picture but besides painting, we had to cut a bunch of little tiny pieces of color paper and glue them in to a piece of cardboard and trying to make the figure of the picture. It was very awesome making these art pieces because it’s all about how you’re going to make it with your own unique touch.
Having to do many projects can be hard, but it can sometimes have similarities. One of them is that whatever project you do, you have to use perspective which is a formula for projecting the illusion of an art work. You have to be able to look at your work with different pints of views. This will help by letting you know that if it can’t be this, it can be that. Another similarity is putting effort in your work. I used the same effort on every piece of art because this way, I can be sure that I did my best and never procrastinate. This way you can be sure about your skills as much as your imagination.
There are many more differences than similarities. In every work I had different objectives to achieve. For example in my art book I used imagination and common sense, which it helped me to finish and receive a good grade. Of course I didn’t use this same things to finish my painting, because in this piece I had to fallow a certain color pattern which includes paying attention to my tint, shade and what kind of temperature was my chosen color.
As you can see I truly enjoyed taking ART 1, because it taught me different ways to view a piece of art, not just the outside picture but what the artist is trying to communicate through the colors, patterns etc. I hope other students enjoyed it as much, because this could help us in the future, not just the students who want to be artist but others in a different way. Hopefully I can continue taking art class in my sophomore year.

This semester being in art is a great thing, because I like art and three things I love that we did was THE BOOK, THE PINATA, and THE TWO COUNTRIES.
The piñata was hard the most out of all, because you had to glue the paper correct and make sure that it was not mess up when you lay or sat it down. Then after that it was a correct way to let it dry, and if it didn’t come not the way you want it to come out you would have to recover it over and over again. My piñata come out not as I wanted it to, but I like it because I spent time doing it.
The book it was hard and easy at the same time because when you had to cut the paper in to half that combined the other paper’s that you cut up that was easy and gluing the color paper on the back of your book. But when it came down to sowing the paper into the hole, it was difficult because it was a way that you had to sow it and you would had to started all over if you just mess one hole. Then when it came down to combined the whole book together it was evening harder.
The two countries was one that a like because it was something I learn about with the two different countries. I had found out things I never knew about the countries.
The similarities that all three projects have ART in it somewhere and you use things to make it and time your time doing it.
The differences are that they are different from each other and have different meanings. Also they have different design and colors.
In conclusion the order that I put my projects was the piñata and the book and also the two countries. Because that the way I like them to be.

Final presentation
On my freshman year here at international high school, I took the art I class with Mr. Renner. I did a lot of projects throughout the year that were both completely different but somehow connected. I didn’t like the class at first, I’ll admit to that but I still got through it and worked as hard as I can to get a good finish product on every project I was assigned.
There are 3 particular projects I would like to talk about, the 3 I’m the most proud of doing and the ones I enjoyed the most working on. The first project is the mosse, where I had to duplicate an image using tiny bits of paper and gluing them to creating a complete image. Next is the monochromatic painting, where I was to paint an image using one single color in all its different shades and tints. And last was my piñata, where I created from balloon, glue and paper Mache.
One similarity I found in every one of these projects was: paper. They all involved it in some way, for example: the monochromatic painting was done on top of paper, the mosse was made from tiny bits of paper being glued together to form one single image. And the piata was made from covering a balloon with newspaper to harden the outer shell. Another similarity was color, which was the finishing touch for each one.
One major difference was the ammount of time and patience it took to make each project. the mosse was the most time consuming and cutting paper into tiny bits and regluing to create a single image took more time and patience than both the piñata or the monochromatic painting. the painting took the most patience, trying to find the perfect shades and tints of my chosen color to create contrast and make the painting work. and the piñata seemed fairly easy even though waiting for it to dry and hardened wasn't the most exciting part of the project.
in conclusion, each project assigned was unique in it's own way,but its also related to the previous and the next. and art I was a great learning expirience i'll keep with me throughout all high school and life.

Piñata
Collage
The Cactus
In my portfolio I chose these 3 projects because they took me a lot of effort and I did my best to try to finish them and I had fun and got to be creative. We got to chose which ever color or thing we wanted to use.
In my project of the piñata I did Stewie because I love him! I took my time and effort because I had to do a football shape head and I did his body with a cardboard and I wanted it to be perfect and because it was a major project. I like this one the most because we used paint and I love using paint! I had a lot of fun doing this project, now I have it hanging in my room and my mom takes pictures of it with my little cousins.
I like the collage project because we got to look through magazines and find which pictures you liked or described you and cut them and combine them in a picture. I did mine plain and simple and creative because that’s how I am. I like how I did it plain but colorful and not boring or confusing.
The cactus project I liked it but I didn’t at the same time because we had to cut a bunch of little pieces of paper and paste them in another paper to create a cactus and its background and not leave any empty spot. I liked it because it was creative and colorful and we could choose which ever color we want. My hand was cramping because we had to cut a lot of little pieces of paper and glue all of them and paste them.
Similarities: I took my effort on all of them and because it was fun and creative, we didn’t have to use just a paper and pencil to do it.
Differences: Some took more effort than others and some were more fun. And some were based on what I like and others don’t.

Art Final
In my portfolio I chose my three favorite projects from this year that I really enjoyed doing.
Piñata: I really liked doing the piñata because we got a balloon and were wondering “ how are we going to make a piñata using a balloon?” so you had to use your imagination, and I decided I wanted to do a heart. I used water, and strips of paper, paper Mache, cardboard, and glue to stick the paper to the balloon. Once it was dry It didn’t really come out the way I wanted it to. So I decided that I was gonna do it half human heart and half heart that we draw on papers. Then we painted it and let it dry and glued the paper mache to finish it off.
Cactus: I liked drawing the cactus cause we got to choose the cactus we wanted to do and then we had to draw it out using only ink and the long thin stick. Then we got to color the cactus and I really liked the way it came out. I had actually tried my best on that project because I talked less and put more effort in the work.
Collage: I liked doing the photo collage because we got to cut out paper from different magazines and glue them together on a piece of paper using our imagination. I don’t think I did my best in my collage but I think that with more time, and with more good pictures I would had a better collage.
Similarities: the similarities are that these projects were all based on art and I tried my very best on these three projects, and also that this year I learned new things about art and I don’t think of art of just something people just do, I know that people use art to describe themselves and to be very creative.
Differences: some took more time then the others, and some I thought I would have never completed them.
Bryan Majano Art So hi my name is Bryan Majano three of my favorite projects this semester were the collage when we had to cut out pieces from magazines and make our own picture from the ones that we chose and it was pretty interesting for me because in this project we had to draw. And the other project was the piñata because it was fun making something we did with our own hands and everyone make something artistic out of the balloon and one of the artistic creation was the turtle because it looked artistic and it was fun making the balloon. The other one was the book because it was one of the hardest projects I did because we had to do it from scratch and we had to weave to make it which was really frustrating. They were similar because I made them and because they were made from scratch or something small and they were hard to make but really fun. They were different because some of them were fun to make but the balloon was different because everyone made a different project. And overall art was my favorite class this year because I find art very interesting and we could make our own thing and the class is very easy.
ReplyDeletethe 3 projects that i like the most were the collage the book and piñata the one i like the most was the collage because you can express yourself and put anything you want in it and the second one was the piñata and the last one i disliked but enjoyed doing was the book because it was kinda hard.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed all these project for the book we just need it to sow it and for the piñata we need it to mix glue with water to make it stick hard and for the collage we just needed pictures from magazines
The similarities between these projects was that we needed to use paper and color and the differences were that all of them took diffrent time and equipment
