Did you share your preliminary work with others? What did they think of your work? Did anyone share suggestions that have helped you with your design? Were you able to make any changes? (Hint: if someone is kind enough to provide helpful suggestions to you, don't forget to reply!)
- Because I was late and had to do all of my posts in one day, I was not able to share it with people and have time to receive feedback but if you guys still would like to reply and stuff, with ideas for a project I could do next year, that would be awesome too!! or just for something to do over the summer! :)

Step 5- Producing Preliminary Work (Late)
After taking time to play with as many thoughts and materials as possible, you'll be able to make a rough draft (or preliminary design) for your artwork. Construct your composition by applying what you've learned through your experiments with media, and share with others by posting a picture of your work to your blog (digital portfolio). By requesting feedback from others, and by making any necessary adjustments, you'll be able to move to the next stage of the Creative Process.
- This is the look of my project as you all know, I mean I dont have any pictures of it finished but this is what it looks liked when it was ALMOST done.

This is the song that kind of describes the person that I am and how I chose to express myself through my project because Black Veil Brides is actually like, this band is my LIFE and they saved me from alot and they PERFECTLY describe who I am, their music is the person that I am.
Step 4- Exploring & Experimenting (Late)
Now it's time for a little bit of fun! PLAY with the materials that you hope to use. Experiment, and make a mess if necessary. Find out how you enjoy working with these materials and figure out what doesn't work as well. Are there any materials that work better together? Which ones, and why?
- At first I was going to try doing my project on a piece of LARGE white blank paper but for my project I was also sewing on buttons that are shaped and representing creativity in my personality, but than I found out that the paper always falls to the side that the Buttons are on and it did not look good at all, and the paint wasn't very good on paper, so I tried the paint on the Frame and that turned out very well, Than I sewed on the buttons and they stayed on very well and it looked super good so I went with the frame.

Step 3- Planning & Focusing (Late)
Which ideas did you like more than others? Why did you like these ideas? Did any sketches look better than others? Were you able to combine any aspects of your sketches?
- The ideas I liked more than others was probably like when I came to the realization that I wanted to just put a bunch of things from my Memory Box in my room onto this project because the stuff in thee describes me the most, instead of just a frame full of pictures that cant say much.
I liked these ideas because they really capture my image and show who I really am and I just think something that can capture and show PERFECTLY like a reflection the kind of person that you are, it's hard to pass up.
Well, I didnt really sketch anything at first, I just kind of did stuff right away and hoping that it would look good in the end, im kind of a "Do it now, worry later" kind of person, ive always been that way.
As you make your selections from your brainstorming (thumbnail sketches), try to explain your thoughts. You can use pictures to illustrate your thoughts.
- My thoughts during this was like, how am I going to express the kind of person that I AM, and have people like it? because I do not exactly feel as if I fit in much at this school, no offense or anything but the people in this school they kind of remind me of Zombies, they are all the same and act the same, I mean there may be like 3 people that are different than everyone else but thats about it when it comes to differences and I am one of the WAAY DIFFERENT people when it comes to comparing, so I was worried about having people actually like what I do because, they all like the same stuff almost and the stuff that I like, doesnt exactly clash with theirs.

Step 2- Imagining & Generating (Late)
Create a series of thumbnail sketches that show your first ideas. Think of this as 'visual brainstorming', and feel free to make this messy! Sketch, scratch, guess, and make plenty of mistakes. The main goal of this step is to come up with as many ideas as possible, so there is no need to be perfect.
-Because these posts are so late, I totally forgot about the steps and stuff so I just went through and did the project right away and finished it without posting or giving feedback and I am sorry so i do not have any thunbnail sketches or anything but I was kind of not sure at first on ideas and what to do and how I was going to have everything arranged, but Basically at the beginning, I thought that my project was just going to be mainly a cluster of photos of me and my friends and like how they have shapen me and made me the person that I am today but I couldnt find very many pictures where I was actually smiling sooo.. but yeahh sorry.
My thoughts on this project was kind of confused on exactly how I was going to express the person that I am and have it all fit on one frame because i have LOTS going through my mind and theres not always as much space I would like to work with available for me so I have to shorten it lots and leave things out but I managed t fit in most of my ideas into this project as youll probably see on the pictures I have posted already a while ago.

Step 1- Challenge & Inspiring (Late)
What are your first thoughts about your project?
- My first thoughts about my project are that like, I wanna do in on a very big piece of blank paper or a frame and I dont just wanna draw stuff like everybody seems to do when they do a project now a days, I want mine to pop-out, I want it to be DIFFERENT so I am gonna Sew things on, im gonna put real pictures and things at my house that resembles who I am, I am going to make it totally me!.
Do you have any concerns?
- Well, I am concerned that things aren't gonna work out like I plan, and im either not gonna have enough stuff to put on it or im gonna screw up and totally go blank and run out of ideas, that scares me.
Are there materials or techniques that might appeal to you?
- Well, the technique I like best and I am the best at working with is just kind of like having things scattered and clustered together, No specific order, just wherever things will fit because in the end, you actualy end up creating something really cool and neat that you never would have expected.

Portfolio Interview Questions
1. Which project was your favorite? Explain why.
The project that was my favorite probably had to be the "Self-Portrait" one that we did because I got to fill up a frame with a bunch of things that I think represent the person that I am and how it affects my life and stuff like that and I had lots of fun doing that. I also got the chance to really be my own person without people throwing ideas at me, I got to chose what to make and exactly how to make it myself, nobody else just my ideas put onto a frame and I really liked it and enjoyed it.
2. Which project did you like the least? What was it about this assignment that paled in comparison to others?
The project that I liked the least is actually probably got to be a tie between Scratch Art and the Tiles because, I don't know I just did not find any fun in doing those and I would have preferred to do something a little more fun and just exciting.
3. Which project taught you the most?
- What is a technique, a skill, history?.... (Explain)
The project that taught me the most would probably have to be the "Native Art" because before we started we watched the video on this guy talking about the history behind it and how he feels about it, how creative with the drawing and the colors that you can be because the art is all you and just the history and technique behind the Native Art was just so amazing and fascinating I really enjoyed it.
4. You took part in a project that helped to benefit the charity "Relay For Life". Explain the significance of creating art for a greater good. Does this impact your definition of art?
Upon doing the project for the charity event the significance in creating art for the Greater Good is actually something that I believe that EVERYONE should take part in because you are taking time out of your day everyday to create art and sell it so that you can raise all these types of things for charity and to help people who can't really help themselves much and I think that is something amazing. My definition of art has ALWAYS explained the person that I am and how I feel art comes out of certain people differently, everybody has their own definition of art and to be honest, I feel as if mine will always stay the same because, you can't exactly change your definition of something just like that, the way you feel and express your feelings about art is ALWAYS different through peoples eyes and it will always stay the same in mine.
