Advanced Art

1st Quarter Project

For our first quarter project, we were instructed to choose something that would represent us. This project was my very first in the CVC art department and to be completely honest, I hated it. They are two small canvases with the backs of my crewneck sweatshirts on them. I am a girl of simple pleasures and crewnecks are one of them. Most days I can be found in one of my multiple crewnecks and while I loved the idea, I struggled with almost every aspect of this project and was very vocal about it. In the end, I am happier than I expected with the result, but these canvases will not be on display as long as I have a say in it.

3D Letter

I didn't enjoy this project very much, but I am pleased with the results. The hardest part was figuring out the right angle to draw the lines at to make it look real but once I got the hang of that it was pretty simple.

3rd Quarter Project

This project had to include words. I chose the painting a pun option and I'm not really sure why because I do not enjoy acrylic paint. I did not look forward to coming to 6th period art and working on this project. But, I am actually very happy with the result. I think the gummy bear is recognizable and the lines are nice and crisp and the background blends nicely.

Story Project

When we were quarantined, I finally came up with an idea for this project as a way to look back at the highlights of my past 4 years. Each triangle tells its own story and all of them together tells the story of my high school experience. I am very happy with how this turned out!

Duomo: trip to Italy & Spain summer after junior year

SBV: bracelet I made on a service trip to Rehoboth, New Mexico summer after sophomore year

ICL mild: the primo drink I got at least once a week

California coast with sun: went to Avila during quarantine and it was a very bright weekend compared to being alone for awhile

sucker: I was an oompa loompa in Willy Wonka

trees: Hi Camp trips both summer after freshman and sophomore year

tennis court: I played tennis all 4 years

balloons: Disneyland trips with Karly (purple's her favorite color and orange is mine)

stripes: Wendy's trips with the squad

BU: I'm going to Biola next year

HS sign: I think this one's pretty self explanatory

scoreboard: represents basketball games but also 20 because we are the class of 2020 and 1:04 because on March 13 (when everything shut down) there were 64 days left until graduation (1min 4secs=64secs)
