In Jeremy's art class, we were required to draw a picture of ourselves. We were able to choose whichever image we liked. We first started off by tracing the image and shading it to the best of our abilities, outlining it in Sharpie, then tracing it onto tracing paper and scanning it. I was very proud of the outcome of my images. Shading was very difficult at first, but with the help of Jeremy and my peers I was able to create something that I was proud to show off.
RAISED BY POEM
In Stephanie's class, we were asked to write a poem about what we were raised by. We first started off by brainstorming with our classmates stuff that we grew up around. Then, we were asked to create a poem individually about our life and what we were raised by. At first I was having trouble with my poem, mainly because I was so used to writing essays all the time. I couldn't find a way to make my sentences shorter. I received help from Stephanie, and she was able to help me out a lot with my poem. Below is a picture of the poem I created, along with some mini drawings that I included in my Creative Juices book.
MY SAMO
I decided that my trademark phrase is "LLTTF" which means, "Livin' life to the fullest". I chose this as my phrase because this is how I would like to live my life everyday, to the fullest and by doing everything that I love to do.
MADE-UP WORD (BOOMI)
My made up word is BOOMI, it is a fun word to describe something that is super cool.
I KNOW ONE DAY I WILL...
We were told to recreate one of Basquiat's journal entries. Above is a photo of mine about a the time I got in trouble at school.
