The beginning of the year, I was nervous to try anything different and new, so I stayed away from it. I didn't know the materials or techniques well enough to try anything else. I'm happy I had the opportunity to take this class, and given the chance, I hope to have it next year. I feel comfortable and more peaceful doing work in that class, it's probably my favorite one.Julia Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06098742087416986791noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1140675698331794845.post-4562845608314258822014-06-12T06:52:00.001-07:002014-06-12T06:52:37.751-07:00Time capsule<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div>Inside of my box consists of things you could say describe me, things I like, things going on right now, etc. I put a handful of pictures inside along with a letter which are probably to most important.

The smell of sea salt tingles my nose, mixed with sun screen. My toes are buried in the warm sand, as I'm laying on a towel, an umbrella nearby, cold drinks underneath. The landscape is tinted by the color of my sunglasses. The breeze is crisp and peaceful. Soon enough, the heat of the sun and sand become unbearable. I make my way through the steaming dry sand into the cool damp sand, allowing the cool tiny waves to break over my feet. It feels so nice, I just run into the water, submerging myself entirely in the chill of the salt water. There are creatures, like fish, starfish, and sand crabs swimming around, and hidden in the sand. There is always laughter and smiles. It's impossible to be unhappy at the beach, the atmosphere is always content and relaxing. It makes me feel at ease, like nothing is wrong, just listening to the waves pound onto the sand, families getting away from what's wrong to enjoy a day of paradise.

It was difficult for me to portray the fortunes in my art, metaphorically. I didn't want to just paste the fortunes onto a piece of paper. I wanted more thought to go into it. It took me a little while, but soon enough I was able to get going.

I enjoyed carving the shape from the stamp, because I find that better than drawing in a way. It was neat to print in mass just because it was a lot quicker and easier to get things done. It has sort of an iconic look to it, more modern and fun. I don't exactly have a reason for choosing the object I did, I just thought it'd be a cool shape to work with, all the different lines and shapes. It was a good experience overall.</div>Julia Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06098742087416986791noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1140675698331794845.post-20271793512467076382013-11-26T07:55:00.001-08:002013-11-27T18:41:56.758-08:00Collecting vs. HoardingWhen you think of the word hoarding, you think dirty, gross, grimy, useless stuff piling up to ceilings in every room of the house. Now think of the word collecting. What comes to mind? I think neat, small, unique, organized, tiny things on display, or in a shoe box. There is a difference between the two, but there are similarities. <div>Hoarding is when you can't let go of almost everything, you have an emotional bond or attachment to it. So it gathers up in your home, amongst other things. It's like an addiction, you can't get rid of things. Once they start piling, it becomes harder and harder to clear out. It's unhealthy. </div><div>Collecting is if you're intrigued by a certain topic, and you either seek out objects relating the topic, or come across them by chance. Those are the best, in my opinion, because it's one specific item you keep finding, it symbolizes something. </div><div>Both are different, but both involve finding, and holding onto stuff. Either way, people have a bond to things, and that's what pushes them to seek these things out </div>Julia Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06098742087416986791noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1140675698331794845.post-24627358617056832632013-11-14T14:18:00.001-08:002013-11-14T14:18:12.439-08:00What does our collection reveal about us?<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5-GYMojtF7j0e3kvZ29BxwXR9NWXAiUd4aJ8z2VCPuYsju6tsGQPUbNFNCQrSYb2Y8pyMYehSqI2YMv8LrnRxbt3H3ok1YYYKTh-9vbs5SYqmPyQhKAVwh6Jc3wEDaIRX19B5kegfI84/s640/blogger-image-521934791.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5-GYMojtF7j0e3kvZ29BxwXR9NWXAiUd4aJ8z2VCPuYsju6tsGQPUbNFNCQrSYb2Y8pyMYehSqI2YMv8LrnRxbt3H3ok1YYYKTh-9vbs5SYqmPyQhKAVwh6Jc3wEDaIRX19B5kegfI84/s640/blogger-image-521934791.jpg"></a>The items in our collection does reflect on the time we live in because some of the items have been made in this time.

Below, I attached three pictures of my drawings, and the progress I made through it.</span></span><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh00VivTzKvIGfpkbxy1JPK9lwRHnAI4bw108MZr8WTfBUluNqv2j1y2rqedtiTN_toLlMgsGCwBG7l0R9n29BI1XRmkYNz9PeoFq8t2ndW_FAzM27z6VuHqKr_dhu_eUFnlpVS_ETGocU/s640/blogger-image--2035419089.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh00VivTzKvIGfpkbxy1JPK9lwRHnAI4bw108MZr8WTfBUluNqv2j1y2rqedtiTN_toLlMgsGCwBG7l0R9n29BI1XRmkYNz9PeoFq8t2ndW_FAzM27z6VuHqKr_dhu_eUFnlpVS_ETGocU/s640/blogger-image--2035419089.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaGsIttEfzz-nzxdGzf2SiDNBO8WkW7fUPfqdqxuX6m1OeMsTvhV0nKNC_SRXBEx1uy6-WsQ6E7mj7vcEI_u1_a73hyJ4v-RjBEoNqL8ilXirRSb7y5sT8Vpq-wNRXJqWYHXWd8eRXpVQ/s640/blogger-image-2129412745.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaGsIttEfzz-nzxdGzf2SiDNBO8WkW7fUPfqdqxuX6m1OeMsTvhV0nKNC_SRXBEx1uy6-WsQ6E7mj7vcEI_u1_a73hyJ4v-RjBEoNqL8ilXirRSb7y5sT8Vpq-wNRXJqWYHXWd8eRXpVQ/s640/blogger-image-2129412745.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe5-JEFKlAvaZIFHslJOrubA4LkUTLdTQp1zZ5vJXJgrfZWGEXP2Q0cj6JbtySFzvR0_I4qc7za381hx9uT91FgD9yCCLJukO3CFbC-AepjIO5N2MqvETqtrc3G9rL4XZr9M_Rmu3w-Bc/s640/blogger-image-293820014.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe5-JEFKlAvaZIFHslJOrubA4LkUTLdTQp1zZ5vJXJgrfZWGEXP2Q0cj6JbtySFzvR0_I4qc7za381hx9uT91FgD9yCCLJukO3CFbC-AepjIO5N2MqvETqtrc3G9rL4XZr9M_Rmu3w-Bc/s640/blogger-image-293820014.jpg"></a></div></div>Julia Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06098742087416986791noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1140675698331794845.post-33529096006799305712013-09-17T07:38:00.001-07:002013-09-17T07:38:18.624-07:00welcome👋👋hello, my name is julia, and this is my blog. im 15, and i love art, and creating it.Julia Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06098742087416986791noreply@blogger.com0
