I POSTED MY PINWHEEL BELOW ALL OF THE WORK! I didn't know if you seen it or not!

Duane Hanson 1925 - 1996 media type="custom" key="10851856" I chose this theme because I believe Peace is what the world needs. It's supposed to help with ending the War, I want the War to end, I think we'd have an extreamly better economy if we could end the War. Peace is knowing you can live in harmony, and not have to worry about what would happen the next day, or if a break-in just happened down the road, peace is knowing that, that would never happen.

I didn't know how I was going to create my pinwheel at first, but I was aiming for a star made up of peace signs using my fingers. I then just drew peace signs with a peace sign beside them, I wrote songs about harmony, and war, on the back of my pinwheel. I also drew the Earth in the middle of the pinwheel, so that it would be a little more easier to tell why I want peace to be spread.

I think that I did a very good job, I think that I just needed a few things to work better, it spins, and it is very creative, and colorful. I might add background colors next time because it would be even more creative than what I did before.









I like how I created my artwork, I think I put a lot of time into how I made my art. I didn't know exactly how I was going to create my work but I did it, I thought it would be really hard, from choosing the colors, to how much time I was using for certain things. I fell behind but I stayed after school to finish my value study, and my shape and space I figured I needed to put more time and effort into my work, which I did, and I got A's on all of my work! I think my last piece I did was the hardest of all of my work I've done in art I, my clay tile, I spent so much time into making it, I think it looks really good the way I did it, I put a lot of time into this project the most, and in the end, I think I did fabulous.





My chocolate Chip Cookie mask

I decided that because I absolutely love baking, I’d make a cookie mask. I didn’t really know what I wanted to do at first; I thought, maybe an Indian? No, then I thought the cookie monster, but I didn’t want to tear my blue rug up to make a mask for High school. I thought a cookie, how sweet would that be to have a cookie mask, it makes me hungry just looking at it! I started baking when I was seven years old, I got to put the ingredients in the bowl, mix them up to soft dough, then make balls and put them on cookie sheets. My cookies turned out to be excellent; they tasted so rich, and delicious, they were at the point were they were warm, chocolaty, and every bite you took you had them melt inside your mouth. I didn’t know how to really start my Cookie project, I was thinking of a way to make it 3-D, which I feel I did successfully in the end. I started with plaster, I had trouble making it a cookie shape though, and I didn’t have anything that had a round bottom edge where the cookie meets the plate. I found a lid in my mom’s kitchen drawer; it looked perfect for helping me make my cookie. I also found a dish that spun around in circles, it made it a lot easier to maneuver my project as I was creating it. I got my cookie started and the shape started appearing to be a cookie shape, my next step was to paint my cookie. I painted my cookie a dark chocolaty brown for the dough, and I painted the chocolate chips a richer dark brown color that appeared to be just right for my cookie. As I did many coats for my cookie to make it look yummier, I decided that if it’s a cookie, someone’s bound to want to take a bite out of it; after all it is a large chocolate chip cookie isn’t it? I cut out teeth marks on the bottom of my cookie, it was just a small bite mark, and it’s about the size of my mouth, which made it look better because I wanted the cookie all to myself. I feel that I did great on my project; I think that it was hard to create, and I had difficulties and I had my doubts, but in the end, my plan worked out to be a great art project!
