I chose the theme I did partly because I couldn’t think of anything else and because all of those things would help make the world peaceful if taken action on. While making my pinwheel I had to problems one was that I could think of anything to do so I just thought about it and what would make the world more peaceful, the second problem was that I couldn’t get my pencil and pinwheel to stay together, but finally I Mrs. Hopkins helped me out and we got it to work. If I could make any changes to my pinwheel I don’t think I would but maybe if I was really into it. At the end of the project I think that my pinwheel turned out like I had in my head which wasn’t very good but it worked and that all I care about.

Work by Kandinsky: Heavy Red, Accent in Rosa, Quiet Harmony and Colour Studies Wassily Kandinsky 12/4/1866 - 12/13/1944













__Art 1 Reflection:__ The reason that I picked and was attracted to this piece was because I liked how it was simple (well it looked simple) and it had nice colors and fit together nicely. Throughout this whole project I did encounter some problems that I did overcome but it took some thinking and some help. Some problems I ran into was that I couldn't figure out what artist to pick because I didn't know of any besides ones that were already picked so with the help of Mrs. Ruggles I found Wassily Kandinsky's work, which I guess i actually like. I'm not much of an artist and his work isn't my favorite but I do like some if it. Another problem I ran into was cutting the tissue paper just right and to fit correctly, eventually I just gave up because I couldn't get it perfect. Personally I think that my tissue paper is the most successful and for no particular reason but because it is my favorite, I dont know why it's my favorite it just it. I think it looks the coolest. This study of design helped me understand that art isn't just drawing or painting, but lines, texture and much more. I may look at at differently from now on but I'm not sure because art has never been a big part of my life.
