​First off we started to learn the point of perspective. First we found the middle of the paper and that was called the horizon line.  The middle of the horizon line is the vanishing point.  Then we learned the points of view.  Above the line is worms eye view, middle of line is standing, and bellow is birds eye view.  We did our letter in our names 3D in perspective. Then we learned how to use orthogonal lines, horizontal lines, vertical lines, and diagonal lines.  We did a step by step instruction on how to draw our rooms and how to use the lines.  The hardest part for me would be to make thing look like they are going in or it coming out.

I think that Alisha Clark did her drawing well.  It showed all the things that we learned and everything is in the right place.  It is also very detailed.

                                    This quarter in art, Green Stream was introduced to one-point perspective drawings. To start to figure it out, we had to take baby steps. We first started with drawing horizon lines and vanishing points. To do this we drew a strait line across the paper horizontally, this was the horizon line. To draw the vanishing point, we had to pick a point on that line to put a small dot. After that, we watched tutorials on how to draw orthogonal lines, which come from the vanishing point

 After all of these tutorials on how to draw certain objects, such as doors, windows and ceiling tiles, we were able to start drawing the big picture! We had to start by drawing a box as one of the walls. By doing that we were able to find the ceiling, walls and floor. I messed up at one point when I was drawing the items in the floor because I didn’t put them into perspective. I started over and finally finished!

 I feel like Sara Nesbitt did a really great job on this assignment. She was able to finish the project in time and make the correct lines and proportions. If you would like to view Sara's drawing click here. My drawing is shown here.

This project was to draw the entire art room from a one-point perspective. We started by drawing an X. The X covers the entire paper traveling from the top left corner to the bottom right, and the top right to the bottom left. Drawing this X helped us find the center of the paper which would later become the vanishing point.The vanishing point is the appearance of a point on the horizon at which parallel lines converge. The X's "legs" are orthogonal as they form right angles with each other. We then drew a horizontal line traveling from the left side of the paper to the right in a straight line passing through the vanishing point. This forms the "worms view" on the bottom side of the horizontal, and the "bird's view" on the top of the horizontal. This was hard to learn at first because each line had to be perfect and parallel to others. It was easy to learn how to make the ceiling. All we had to do was to make rows of boxes that get smaller and smaller. 

I think that Alisha's project followed the rules and requirements very well.
She was able to color and complete the project. This shows that she was extremely diligent with her work, and was one of the best. She was also able to draw just about everything in the room well. She showed the relationship of the room with the vanishing point. The horizontal line defiantly showed the two different views very well. This is why I think she followed this project, and completed it well.  Green perspective Hull Schwartz

In the beginning of when this class we started learning of perspective. We drew boxes using orthogonal. Then from there we turned those boxes into creating our names. From there we moved onto making doors and windows. Using the vanishing point to get all of our lines.

Something that I found very easy and useful was the vanishing point and finding the center. We had to find the center to create the X going through our box. When we had to make lines it was easy because all we had to do was line in up with the vanishing point

Something I found difficult was making the doors and windows. I had trouble making them look 3-D and real. I’ll work on it though.

One persons artwork that I feel that did really well with her 3-D drawings was Taylor's.

The way she made her two walls look like they came of off the page was good. So she put in enough detail for it to look real. It was an overall great drawing.

This unit, we learned about one point perspective.  We watched a video telling us how to do it. Our class then did a practice drawing of a room. First, we drew the vanishing point. We learned about orthogonal lines. They are lines that eventually create an x. when they met at the vanishing point; it looked like the back of the wall. After that, we drew the door, the window and traced out the room.

Ms. Hull then gave us a project once we got the idea of the drawing. The assignment was to pick a wall in the room and draw it. Including all the details on and near that wall. She gave us a huge piece of paper and a ruler. It was easy to learn how to connect the lines to the vanishing point. I did find it hard to make everything 3D.  There is a lot of math involved with it, and the drawing took a while. 

I think Alisha did her drawing well. 

She did very good detailed work. I like all the colors and designs she put into it. 

In the beginning of the third quarter, we were told to have a sketchbook and our first assignment was to draw a horizontal line. We had to choose one point on the line, which was called the vanishing point. We had to draw 3D boxes that attached to the vanishing point at all times. We had to draw 3 boxes, one along the horizon line, one above, and one below. Our second assignment was to draw our names. We had to use all of the tools we learned from the previous class, and draw our name in bubble letters.

         For our third assignment, we had to draw a room. We watched many demonstrations for learning how to make things seem realistic on just a flat piece of paper. This prepared us for our final assignment of the quarter. We were handed a large piece of paper. We had to choose a wall in the classroom, and draw it. But everything had to come off of our horizon line.

         I first drew a sketch of the ceiling and the floor by counting the tiles there were in real life. Then I started on the windows and the pillars. Then, I worked on the details underneath the windows and walls.

         I think that the entire concept of orthogonal lines, and vertical and horizontal lines were very easy to me, even though I have never worked with perspective drawing before.

         The hard thing was making the pillars look 3D and the entire paper look like the real life wall. Overall, it was a good project, and I really enjoyed having it this quarter. 

Alisha's Drawing. 

In are class this quarter we learned how to draw things in space and in prospective. Also we leaned how to draw 3D drawings. we also prepared by cutting paper and meshing the walls
also we had guided teachings and showings of the picture. The hardiest part was drawing things in prospective and making things pop and not look like paper on the wall.

I think Brsyera could use more shading on her picture other then that it was nice.

Your drawing looks like I'm looking right into it from a window, or like I'm standing in there.
Michael Hall
The windows are good. The detail around it, especially the blinds are drawn well. Just color it a little darker.
Maryam Biuibrahim
Your picture is upside-down, yet when I turned my head to see it, the tables popped out like it was in a 3D movie. 

The project was to draw a perspective of our art room or your bedroom or whatever room in your house. I drew the front wall of the art room. I started with the back wall. Then worked on the ceiling and floor. After that, I tried to detail the back wall as best as I can. What was easy to learn was the setup. The hard part to learn was the detail. It took me three to four class periods to get back wall.

  We started out our first art class learning perspective drawing. First we learned about the vanishing point, and how to make out pictures look like they are popping out at you. We started out by drawing squares on our paper, than we drew horizontal lines from each on the squares corners to the vanishing point. The next day we went through the same process and tried spelling our names in the squares. It was a little difficult but if you take your time it came out really nice. Than we did a room drawing all together. Everything had to look realistic so we used perspective to do that as well. Lastly we did a drawing of one wall in the room. We had about 5 class periods to do so. We had to incorporate the calls ceiling and floor into the picture this is what I got done.

 

In art class, we begun drawing with perspective. First, we started by drawing boxes that would later turn into a room based upon the perspective. We learned that if we create a vanishing point, everything in the drawing would look real. The point of this drawing was to capture SLA's art room's essence in a perspective drawing using prior knowledge of perspective drawing.


To complete this drawing I begun with the box in the center of the sheet of paper. To make the room's shape I counted how many ceiling tiles there were going across the wall. Based upon that number I got a ruler and measured out half of the number of ceiling tiles for each side so the vanishing point would be easier to find. I then found the vanishing point and got a ruler connecting from the vanishing point to each point I created for the ceiling tiles. After that, I drew a guide line that started from the edge of the box I made, to the top middle of that page. That would allow me to create the tiles easily by taking the point where the guide line crossed over the ceiling tile lines and drawing a horizontal line across each point. 

Now that I have the ceiling tiles I can make the room come a live. I started to draw the windows. To draw the windows I had to count the number of ceiling tiles the window took up. And after I found that out I could estimate the length of the window. For the window on the side of the other wall I drew the tope line by getting a ruler and drawing a line from the vanishing point and over. Because I already had other windows in the drawing I knew I could have drew the bottom line by getting a ruler and measuring from the second to last window. I begun to draw the columns in the part of the room I was drawing. To create the columns I had to bring it out instead of in, to bring the column out I drew points from each corner of the ceiling tiles in which the columns belonged. Then I drew lines coming all the way down past the square outline because the columns are supposed to coming out. 

I would say that the easiest thing for me to do was draw the little details within the drawing because the drawing was basically finished. Yet, the hardest part, for me was scaling everything down to an appropriate size where it looked like room, where everything was in perspective. But, in the end, I learned a lot about art that I never knew.

I thought that Maryam's project was well drawn. I could tell she was using guidelines which are perfect for perspective drawing. Another thing I admired about her drawings is how she made certain lines deeper, which made the drawing stand out. 

The project was to recreate a selected wall of the art studio, I choose the wall left of the desk. We first started by drawing a box (rectangle) to represent the actual wall. From there we found the vanishing point, or the center of the box. That is where we would find where each next line goes. Everything is in perspective of the vanishing point. My process was very long because it was to see if a line was straight because the edges of the paper were not straight. One thing that was easy to learn was perspective in general. By that I mean that the concept of everything has to be alined from the vanishing point was easy to understand. The most difficult thing to do was distinguishing wether or not a line was straight.

I really like your drawing, but I think that you made a mistake with the bottom of your wall, you must've thought that the whole paper was the wall. But besides that the drawing is great 

We started this project on perspective by sketching a horizontal line and putting in a vanishing point. We then made a box from on top of the point, under the point and connected each vertex to get a view on what perspective is. Then we started working on our rooms making sure everything was connected by the vanishing point and we had to measure everything down to a corresponding size.

 

The process we used was to make an equal rectangle somewhere in the middle of our paper and in the middle of that we put the vanishing point. From there we counted how many ceiling tiles and for example my wall have 12 so I made my bow length 24in and each time 2in. And drawn the lines every 2ins from the vanishing point. I did the same thing with the floor tiles but I did then every inch and then from the middle of the tiles I put about a 45-degree angle to the end of the tiles and at each intersection I crossed them. I then put the pillars in but making 2 lines, one thicker than the other and made the lines go into the ceiling and floor.

 

The things that were easy for me where tiles and pillars.

 

The things that were hard for me were the table, couch, and windows.

I think Michael completed the assignment well.

I this he did very well. It showed all his skills and looks like he tried very hard.

This project all started from when we first did the boxes in space where we had to draw a horizon line  and a vanishing point. This part was basically to start us thinking about how we was going to draw our room. Doing the boxes was really helpful because it showed us how things above that vanishing point you can not see the top. For things below the vanishing point you can only see the top and not bottom.
Next we drew a miniature room which helped a lot. It was to show us how to make objects such as doors, windows, and furniture look like their coming out the wall. Since we all know that things don't sit on the wall the come out towards you. When I drew my actually picture it was easy to draw because I had a practice run already with the miniature drawing. 
I basically used all the information that we learned before and we put it all together to make our room. When you get help piece by piece it helps you a whole lot because their not giving it to you all at once. It gives you the time to process what you learned. Even though it still can be pretty hard drawing things because it might take somebody longer to process it, but over all it's really good help.
The easiest thing for me to learn how to do was the doors, ceiling, windows, and the floor. It was easy to draw them because we had prior practice with it which helps a lot. The hardest was the furniture. It was hard because we didn't spend to much time on drawing furniture, but with the help of Mrs. Hull it made it come out okay.

Alisha Clark
I think her's was good because she can tell that she put a lot of hard work into her project. She even said that she had an outside source to help make hers better. She give good details. She did good with the whole process of the drawing. You can tell she spent her time to help her drawing come out looking good. She didn't rush through it and you can tell because of all the details she give the picture.

This marking period we learned about one point perspective. We did practice with cubes and learned about orthogonal lines. We then used  a combination of vertical, horizontal, and orthogonal lines to make a room. This one is the practice one but I think I did better on this one than the final so I used this one. It's a room that I really want. The main part that helped was when we learned how to make things stick out in front of other things like the door frame. One of the harder things to get right was the cylinder shape of the poles on the loft bed. Overall it's a great picture.


Michael Hall
 Your drawing was really great. I like how you added a lot of detail in how objects stick out in front of the wall. The vanishing point has good placement dead in the center. Despite all the creases this was a very successful room. 

​ Women are shown in ads and places that do not take them serious. But what happens when one is assaulted or a victim of domestic violence from there partner? Do the media talk about it, or do they talk more about the Victoria Secret Model new photo shoot. “In 2005, 1,181 women were murdered by an intimate partner.¹ That's an average of three women every day. Of all the women murdered in the U.S., about one-third were killed by an intimate partner”, from an article from NOW.com (National Organization for Women). No one notices these violent acts, but do notice the other things instead of the one main focus, Women in Domestic.

 In 2009, one of the biggest events was happening, The Grammy’s. Singer Rihanna and her ex-boyfriend singer Chris Brown got into an atication driving there way to the Grammy’s.  Rihanna wanted to see who Chris was texting, supposely he was texting an old girlfriend. Rihanna wanted to see the text and Chris refused. The argument eventually turned into an physical attack onto Rihanna. Chris Brown hit, punched and even hit Rihanna. Now no one is bashing on Chris Brown what had happened is done and over with. The question that is being raised is, how come that situation was broadcast the day after, and no other situation like that was. While the was going on, someone else, another female could have been getting assaulted, or beat on by her boyfriend. The media doesn’t focus on the bigger issue of not just what happened between Chris Brown and Rihanna, but what is happening to women all over the country.

 Situations such as Domestic Violence are never really brought up in the media unless someone gets brutally hurt, or even to the point killed. When a woman is being abused by her partner, or who ever, they report it, but it isn’t taking serious. Almost 35% of abusers are released from prison on bail after being held for abusing a woman. This action should be looked at more closely. If the abuser is release, don’t you think that he is going to go after the woman that he abused that got him locked up? Abusers aren’t looked at as actually armed and dangerous, but more non-stable when they are the ones that are armed and dangerous.

Some other abuses can be when the person was little. They could be abuse when they were little, and the anger from that could build up and take it out on other people. This is another example of people who take their anger out on people. They hit, and even kill people. This isn’t intentionally but it is hurtful to others that are the ones getting abuse. Sometimes the person that is getting abuse is the person the abuser doesn’t wants to abuse but they picture you as the other person they want to get back at.

 Fear is another way woman get abused more. If the woman do not come forward telling what is going on, than the abuse is going to continue. Many abuses are not reported every year, over A high number of domestic violence and child abuse cases go unreported in the country. Almost 450 cases each year or even more. The country is striving to find out more about these cases, but if no one is coming forward to and telling about these abuses, no one can help them and they can not be reported.

 Women you must come forward, it’s not the countries fought but it is there fought for not bringing it to attention. We need to notice it more.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Las temas en el libro son de adventura y orgullo. Harry no tiene mucho libertad, pero en el libro él usa todos cosas de su ventaja y su familia es muy mezquina. Pero él tiene la moral alta. Y cosas estan bien cuando reciben una carta de Hogwarts y va a hacer en un gran adventura. Tambien, necesitas tener mucho orgullo o no vas a hacer amigos o ser un beun wizard. 

The Purpose of my of my 10-20-30 page was to interview my closes family, and find out the real history through african american music. Go through all the greats and hits to see which really builded american music. I had to base my project off one simple question why didn't african americans get credit? Where did R&B come from but then I found out that the white people really didn't want r & b and change in american music. While interviewing my father (John Shuman) He gave me the theme the basic idea, he made me look deeper into the project.

The hardest about this project, is getting the information. I had to research deeper than other students. There weren't many articles about how whites stole african american music, they didn't talk about it or said much about it. THe further the years went the harder it got, so i found diaries, and letters. I found articles and things like that, and concert dates about things like that. I went in depth with my research. 

The good thing about my project was i could add my own flavor and add spice, and flavor. I created a page built off inspiration, and what i wanted. The colors, african american pictures, the way i put a collage was all a message. Made the overall question mean something, and I enjoyed this project.
