I really enjoyed our first media fair. After the last blog post we did a couple more kinds of art from this media fair. We did soft sculptor and weaving. For soft sculptor you could make a plushie or a sock monster. I started on the sock monster at home but never got to finish it. I really enjoyed doing the plushie and it turned out exactly how I wanted it do. I really tried to challenge myself by making something that looks realistic and I just asked myself, Would this be more than you did as a 9th grader. I really think that I did a good job on this and I definitely think that I did better than I would have in 9th grade. The next thing that I did was a weaving. I chose to change colors almost every time I ran out of string because I wanted it to look more cool than just one color the whole time. I really enjoyed doing both of these artworks.
Some of the things that we have done in the media fair is Cardboard/taskboard, found object/altered book/styrogami, wire/kinetic art/mobiles, papier- mache/plaster gauze, subtractive sculpture, and soft sculpture. My favorite ones were the cardboard and the Subtractive sculpture. I liked these ones because I found out more way to use these materials then I originally knew how to use them. With the cardboard I ripped the cardboard open to find out that it has ridged thin pieces in the middle and you can use those to make the pattern a little more exciting. I likes working with eh soap and the foam because you can carve whatever you want and I just really like doing this type of art. I really enjoyed this media fair and I hope I enjoy the next one just as much or maybe even more.
This is my first art class since 9th grade and I think that I have improved a lot since then. I hope that I can figure out ways to improve since the last time that I had art. I have already took 3D art in 9th grade so I hope that I can improve my skills. I want to look back at what I made and see what I can do better with that art. If I think I am finished with my art, I am going to see if anything else can be added. I will try to add something and take that risk. If I do not like it then I will just make it back to the original artwork that I had. My goal is to make successful art and push myself to make it the best that it can be. I am going to push myself to try new things or try things that maybe I didn't like or wasn't good at. I want to become a better artist by doing this.
