Artistic Idol Project
Artistic Idol Project
I chose my artist by researching African American women artists because I wanted to connect with someone who looks like me and who might be less well known. I was drawn to Alma Thomas because of her vibrant use of color and her unique brushstroke technique. My artwork relates to Thomas’s work through the use of small, square brushstrokes, but I chose to make mine more abstract, without a defined form. Throughout the process, I made several artistic decisions to enhance the piece. I carefully selected colors and planned their pattern to create a bright, eye-catching effect. I also decided to subtly outline my tree in orange to give it more definition and shape, while still blending it into the overall composition.

How might cultural and historical contexts have shaped scientific discoveries in making the periodic table?
How might cultural and historical contexts have shaped scientific discoveries in making the periodic table?
I think that if certain people didn't discover certain things, it would change the development of the periodic table. For example, if Antoine Lavoisier didn't define what a chemical element was, who would've? Another example is Mendeleev organizing the elements into groups. If this didn't happen, the periodic table wouldn't have been organized and not functional. If the race or gender of the people who discovered these things were different, for example a black male or woman, I think the discoveries would not have been taken as seriously or the observations would've been stolen.
Skittles Lab
Skittles Lab
The objective of this lab was to used the scientific method to guess the number of skittles would be in the bag and their colors. I wrote my hypothesis, grouped my skittles by color, and recorded some data analysis. Lastly, I recorded my post-lab evaluation.
Bubbles Lab
Bubbles Lab
The objective of this lab was to use qualitative and quantitative observations to create an analysis on the size of bubbles based on the soap brand. We also determined the independent and dependent variable in this experiemnt. We predicted dawn dish soap would make the biggest bubbles and were incorrect.
History of the Periodic Table
History of the Periodic Table
This project was to highlight a specific person who was apart of the history of the creation of the periodic table. I chose to draw images of the 4 most important representatives, in my opinion, of chemistry and why.
Element Art
Element Art
This project was a way to showcase a specific element and what it is used for. I recived the element Rhodium and drew the discoverer, William Hyde Wollaston. In his hand he is holding a ring, which is the main thing rhodium is used for.
Bohr Model
Bohr Model
This project demonstrated our element's electron structure and how they revolve around the nucleus. I demonstrated my element, rhodium, using yarn as my rings and straws as my electrons.
Shaping Our World
Shaping Our World
Driving Question: How can understanding the achievements and cultural legacies of ancient civilizations help us appreciate and preserve the diverse cultures that shape our world today?
Answer: Understanding the achievements and cultural legacies of ancient civilizations help us appreciate and preserve the diverse cultures that shape our world today by showing how our current civilizations are connected to the ancient civilizations and how we can explore the different perspectives that shaped our current society.

ChemVAS Typography- 8/23/24
For this project, we created the ChemVas name using different objects that relate to chemistry and art. I used the paintbrush tool to create my background. My art had a lot of repetition depending on the letter, texture as the background, a lot of variety and shapes. I liked using different objects to create one shape, but didn't like adding texture to my background. I could use these tools in the future when creating my own digital art.
