my gallery

There are 6 people in my family, 4 being my siblings. On my sculpture i only put myself and my younger siblings, since my older brother doesn't really talk to us anymore, meaning I would have no clue what to make his shape. Personally i believe that my siblings and I aren't alike at all, even though my sister tries her absolute hardest to be me. My two younger siblings always hang out and play games together, i dont take part in this because I have no interest in it. My sister is very loud and not very shy. She always befriends some old person when we go out somewhere, and she also has a lot of emotions and gets mad when she doesn't get her way. My younger brother basically has anger issues and gets mad very easily; he's also quite annoying, like my sister, because he tries to be cool and nonchalant. Plus hes like barely 5 feet in the 7th grade. My shape is very round and curvy, not really for a certain reason other than the fact that it looks non-threatening like me, and the shape looks calm like me. I chose the pink because that's my favorite color, and the red was just trying to balance out my sister's purple and my brother's red. Honestly, it worked out because my brother and I basically molded my sister into the way she is now. My sister's shape is like pointy, but also has parts where it's sharp and pointy, kinda like how shes nice most of the time, but when shes mad, she gets mean and feisty. The purple just reminds me of her, plus her room is like a light purple. The “night sky” look is because shes mostly active during the night, and she refers to herself as a “night owl”. My brother's shape is mostly round, and the lines at the top kinda remind me of fire, since he gets mad super easily. Also, my brother's shape is blue because ever since I was little ive always associated him with a blue color, probably because he's a boy. The “daytime sky” is because even though he's up during the night hes mostly active during the and when he stays up, he only plays games. Honestly i really hate the way I designed my shape. I think that the color job on my siblings' shapes is pretty nice, but I just really hate every other aspect of the sculpture. Building and painting it wasn't bad, and it was quite fun, but I absolutely hated papermaching it, that wasn't fun at all. Although I do believe that I did quite a good job following through with my design. The only thing that kinda changed was my sister's shape, since the edges aren't round but also sharp like the original design. If I had more time i would redo the entire design and come up with something else. The really fun part was taking pictures of my sculpture; I mostly enjoyed that.
