semester 2 art final

        This semester in 3D art, I learned so much about creating art and finding my voice as an individual. One of my goals this year was to find out who I am and where I want to go and my art classes helped me do that. In the first semester I was new to Noblesville and didn't know anyone. I made a few of my best friends in my art classes (in 2d and 3D art). This really helped me get comfortable with the school and the people here. My inspiration for most of my art projects was being unique and finding what makes everyone different. When people see my work, I'd like them to think "Wow, that really makes me think…." 

         

        When I am creating a project, I don't really always think about what I am doing. I always have a basis for what I want the project to be, but I never really know until I am finished with it. I just get new ideas as I go along, and then I work from there. My projects always have a deeper meaning, but it depends on the viewer to discover what it means to them. I normally select materials and details that will add to the look and meaning of the project. I have music and color as some of the major themes in my work because they both are such a big part of my life. 

       

          Being new to Noblesville has impacted me and has made me grow so much this year. This also changed my thought process and the techniques for my art. My work has definitely grown with me. I think that my skill level has gone up dramatically and my creativity has become more of my own instead of influenced my anything else. The most challenging thing in art this year was thinking outside if the box. When there are so many other people trying to create a project along the same lines as my own, I had to learn how to make my work and ideas very unique. I loved almost every single art project that I made this year. There were a couple that didn't embellish all of my skills, but they still turned out pretty well. My favorite artist that our class studied this year was Banksy. I think that it is awesome that he is getting people to really think about what they do and to think about society in general, in a real world context. He really influenced me to put a lot of meaning into my work and into my thought process. Overall, I felt that my art classes helped me grow not only as an artist, but as a person this year and I cannot wait to continue my art work in my photography class next year.

This is one of my art projects make out of cardboard to represent the makeup that can cover up natural beauty.

Here is one of my favorite pictures I have taken.
