Final art project.

I had lots of problems trying to do my final tack. First off I didn't know How thick I wanted to make it. So after that I carved the fish out of the clay. Then I wasn't at school for a few days. So I put the clay in a bag so it WOULDN'T dry out but it did. So I had to carve out the worlds I wanted to put in the clay. But then I had a idea to bring it home to work on. So I put it in my bag and brought it home. And when I pulled it out of my bag it was broken.

The idea for this project was to show people who aren't from here what it is like here. All the words told the person who was looking at the art work what it looks like and what people feel about the area we live in. A lot of people think differently about how it is in Nipigon and Red Rock. I also got the idea from earlier in high school we all had to work with clay and I seen people making clay work like this so I thought I could do this and try and show people what it is like living in the Nipigon Red Rock area.

The Art can show someone how I feel about the place I live in. I picked the words that first came into my head when I thought about how it is living in the area I do live in.

When you look at the clay it looks smooth but when you really feel it you feel the uneven parts of the clay. You can also feel the words how them indent in the clay and how you outline of the fish pops out so it gives the clay more depth. It isn't a perfect rectangle the lines are not straight everywhere. But nothing is perfect here. Also the outline for the fish that I uses is just a any kind of fish. nothing special. I couldn't draw you a fish that is from here.

I feel that I did a good job with all that happened with is braking and all that. I don't think I will be finishing the project because school is finished now and wont be able to fire it. Also there were a lot of things that went wrong with this project.

The last series!

I started with a blank canvas and painted family on it. I wanted to do something that had to do with my family and show who I came from. I put both my grandparents and my parents and my mom and dad. I didn't add my brother in to because I didn't have time to put them on the art work.. haha

I put a picture oh my camp because that was the last place all my family were together. And I put a red rock because it stands for that my parents are still with me.
