For this project, I chose to watercolor a picture that I put together on Photopea. This is of Kingsburg and all the little things that remind me of it because I used to live there and every time I go back it brings me nostalgia. My favorite part is the mural on the wall because there is so many colors and designs that just describe Kingsburg perfectly. I also like the Swedish kids dancing because the photo was from the real Kingsburg Swedish Festival. Overall, this was one of my favorite projects to do.
This is a hot air balloon and it was so fun. At first, I was worried it would fall apart or the pieces wouldn't work together well, but in the end I am very proud of how it turned out. It was difficult to sauder the pieces together but it still ended up good. I needed a few extra hands to help me put together the hot air balloon (Johni, Emma, Claire, Rowyn). Love you guys!Â
I decided to paint for my project. I wanted to do either Holland or Italy since I am both Italian and Dutch. I decided to do Italy because I have never painted an ocean and wanted to try it. I'm proud of how it turned out, even though I rushed the 2 people on the right. I had a lot of fun seeing it come to life. My favorite part was painting the little humans on the hill by the buildings. It was fun to see how tiny details can perfectly make what you want it to.
