Artistic Idol Project
Artistic Idol Project
I chose my artist, Christian Dior because I really like vintage fashion and how different the styles were in previous decades. My artwork is related because I remixed one of Dior’s designs and changed the color. I also researched about Christian Dior and learned that he is from France. I discovered that the national flower of France is the Iris so I decided to place the flowers on the shoulder and on the bottom of the dress. I really like how the design turned out and I am happy that I got to add a personal touch to the design.

Balloon Experiment
Balloon Experiment
In class, we watched a video about a way for people to travel by using wind currents and the hot air from the sun and cool air to help the balloon float. I thought the video was very interesting! This experiment related to Charles' Law which states that the volume of gas increases as temperature increases. We replicated this idea by getting trash bags or table cloths, collecting air in them, and then taping them together. Then, we looked at how long they stayed afloat. My group's "balloon" did not float for long because there was not much wind and it was a very sunny day. I really enjoyed doing this project!

It's Elementary
In this project, I was required to pick an element from the periodic table and create a drawing that relates to the element. My element was iron and I chose to create a cityscape to represent how iron is found in buildings. I also incorporated the atomic structure into the sun. I was inspired by New York to create the street because it has many buildings very close together even though I didn’t use many colors. I incorporated value to show my buildings getting smaller and lighter as they get farther in the distance. One thing I found difficult was figuring out what to create in my piece. I enjoyed the process of sketching my ideas. If I were doing it again, I would add more detail to my piece.

I worked with Vincent Kray, Axum Nickerson, and Brayden Harris to create mandala designs based on atomic electron configurations. We used color mixing techniques and color theory to create an personalized color palette and include background information that we have learned about the history of mandalas’ use in world religions.

The goal of this project was to research about different ancient civilizations explore our own identity and the world around us using food. In AP world history, we did a cook off based on the Columbian Exchange. In World Literature, we created a recipe related to identity and using an ingredient traded during the Columbian exchange. For art, we had to create a tablescape and placemat related to an ancient civilization. My group decided to make these by researching the different kinds of ancient civilizations’ pottery and we chose Native American. We made different types of bowls and also a fork with different designs. It was related to the columbian exchange because the designs we chose for our pottery was pre colonization, which was before the Columbian exchange. The things that worked well was collaborating with my peers. Something that didn’t work well for me was my fork that broke. If I had more time, I would have made the fork thicker.
