Eighth grade art has been wonderful. I look forward going to clay and sculpture every other day. the projects that we're doing help me understand art, and how I interpret art. But clay is not the only type of art the interests me. I love photography. I don't know much about photography other than the many photos I have taken. I enjoy scenes that aren't caught from the naked eye. anything to do with nature, or the sky interest me, which helps me in science. I feel that abstract art is a lot easier to explain. But often times it is the hardest form of art to understand. That's why photography interests me so much. No matter what I'm taking a picture of it is real. No matter how abstract it looks. That way people can understand it, while I can explain it. The time spent in clay and sculpture is probably the best time used during my day. I am more productive in this class then any other class I study. This is also a problem, but I can fix it. Mrs. Davis is an extraordinary teacher, and I look forward to the rest of the year and the rest of my art life. YAY.
