Here are so of my photos from the photography assignment. The one on the top left corner there is a before and after

Here is one of my creative self-portraits photos from the photography assignment. I chose to do this photo as one of my selfies because it is the spring season right now and I love to see all of the flowers growing and the snow melting. I had this idea to put flowers in my boots as if they were growing to represent spring and “growing where you are planted”. I love this photo because I think it turned out really well and is a very interesting concept.

I did a self portrait. I used a combination of newspapers and cardboard.

I did an animal or more specifically a lion I really liked the way this one turned out I tried to do as much layers as possible my only regret is that I did not colour it in

I used a combination of cardboard & magazine to create this mishmash of relief and collage. So many different unexpected photos were used, ranging from a food truck, to mushrooms, to salmon! I chose to do a giraffe because I felt that there was a lot of opportunity to create patterns  on the patches + they are a beautiful, and peaceful animal (also one of my personal favorites).

I really like the way that this project turned out. Some of my strengths in this project are definitely doing the colour (I love how it looks so tropical and summery) and using the different textures of cardboard to my advantage (I used different levels of cardboard that I painted different shades of teal to look like waves, I used corrugated cardboard to create seaweed, and I did scales out of cardboard to make the fins). I really love how this project turned out and I don’t really see a big weakness with it, but I maybe could have cut the cardboard that I used for the background a little cleaner.

My Cardboard piece--Cat Noir from Miraculous the series..i made the lines of his shirt by layering the cardboard as well as his hair and eyes and ears. His cat-bell is made out of tinfoil, which my cat has since eaten..

I made a Peacock for my Earth day art!

Here's a recreation of my guinea pig hiding in her log hut. I did my best to create as much texture and dimension by utilizing my cardboard in different ways.

This fish is inspired by the fish from the book The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister.

I decided to make a self portrait,
I tried to make the most layers as possible I did alright with this and it made the portrait much better. One thing I think I could've done is maybe add a bit more texture and layers on the face and just fix little details.

# data[].attributes.body
I attempted to recreate the face of my cat by cutting and layering different types of cardboard to give off a textured and 3D look to the piece. I tried to match the eye colours and make whiskers with thinner pieces of cardboard. In the future I can work on adding more layers and small details using pencil crayons.

I decided to go for a more of a generic artwork for this assignment. I also was inspired by the photos we were shown in class and thought I should make something somewhat similar. I think that this isn't one of my better artworks, but it isn't horrible.

# data[].attributes.body
I decided to use colours and different types of cardboard to create a 3D painting of two dolphins jumping. I originally wanted to do a sunset background but I wanted the whole thing blue by mistake and had to roll with it.

# data[].attributes.body
I decided to make a self portrait, but I wanted to make it abstract. I thought this would be a good idea because it would be something different and not often seen. I used pop can cartons to get the colours and different styles. I think the best part of my art would have to be the shape of the body. But, I think I could improve on the little details such as, the eyes, ear, nose, teeth.

# data[].attributes.body
i used the layers within the cardboard to give a sense of shading and value, and i used ripped pieces of cardboard to give texture. i like how it came out

for this project I made a rock tower but you can’t see very well in this photo because it is so zoomed in but the rocks are stacked on top of each other with the flower in it to signify beauty. I found these beautiful flat rocks in the ground and with the help of my two-year-old sister we dug them up and built a tower with a beautiful flower.

# data[].attributes.body
This art piece was created with many rocks and sticks. Some rocks are small, some are large, and the colours fade. The twigs follow the theme of different values, and they outline the design. My inspiration for this art was the many pictures on the slideshow that consisted of mainly rocks, and their unique designs. I also loved the colour range in many of Andy Goldsworthy's artworks, which I copied. Although the rocks are only black and white, it still goes to show the many different colours nature carries, and the variety of objects to be found amongst forest, gardens, yards and more. Adventure is one thing that I certainly love, and that includes searching for rocks, trees, or any kind of flower. I created a simple, but meaningful piece, and I hope you enjoy it!

For my art piece I decided to go outside and look around to see if anything sparks my interests and if it would look nice to incorporate in my art piece. I eventually walked across this old broken log, which I found looked quite cool and I immediately thought of using it in my art. I also wanted to use rocks in some way, so I decided that I would gather a bunch of rocks, varying in different sizes and I would cover half of it with rocks and leave the rest wood. Before I put it all together I brought the log on my deck near the lake so it would have a nice background and I then covered the log with rocks. I mainly decided to incorporate both wood and rocks in my piece because they are very common and important in our Earth and since this is a Earth Day art piece I thought it would go well with the theme.

Using little rocks and pieces of branches, I tried to make a little spiral on my dock. I took inspirations from Andy Goldsworthy as he made many different types of spirals, and even though mine is very simple, I think the picture looks cool.

This peace sign is meant to represent the way that nature can make someone feel. In such a digital world, we can often times be brought apart by unnecessary chaos online. My objective was to show how nature can bring peace and togetherness to me, and to so may others.

This is an inukshuk. Inukshuks are stone cairns that were erected by Inuit at prominent locations throughout the barrens to serve as guideposts or markers. They translate to “stone man that points the way. I built this using rocks I found around my house.  Thought it does not really look like a man, I think it turned out ok.

# data[].attributes.body
For my Earth day art piece, I decided to go on a walk in a trail nearby to collect some rocks to create this small rock structure. Rocks take-up huge part of Earth, they play a fundamental role in our ecosystems. To show their importance I choose to make my art piece out of rocks!

# data[].attributes.body
With this piece I decided to take inspiration from Andy Goldsworthy use of curved lines. The message of the image is "beauty is always on the inside". I made sure to use the most vibrant flowers I could find, place them in the center of the image, and surround them with dark charcoal and dead leaves. I also decided to have a lighter background to contrast the dark leaves and charcoal.

This is a plant pot that I made out of birchbark. It was pretty difficult to get the pot to hold together without the use of string but I used a piece of thick grass to hold it together. I filled it with soil and flowers to show what it is meant to be used for. The purpose of this price of art is to show that something as simple as birch bark can be turned it to something useful and beautiful.

The purpose of my picture is to show that even small things can support things that are bigger.  Just like ecosystems, balance is very important in life at many times.  From rocks, to trees, to animals, balance is everywhere

I used 2 rocks in the middle with 3 twigs leaning on another rock and 2 groups of leaves on the side. This is supposed to represent how we have to work together to save the planet.

I created this sculpture with rocks and tree bark. At first I didn’t know what I wanted to create. After I started to play around with the materials I made this rock sculpture that reminded me of a little cave. I then added the tree bark to make it look like a little platform. I also found this really unique piece of bark and balanced it on top of the sculpture.

My earth day art is being symbolized by a decaying trellis and dead plants vining through it. The symbolism is showing how old things can make new beginnings. The old trellis is supporting the dead plants to become something new. It was difficult to get the vines through each space without them breaking since they're so fragile.

# data[].attributes.body
I made my nature sculpture with all the vines sticks tiger lilies and pinecones. I made it in a shape of a heart to represent my love for nature. If I were to have done this project later in the spring I would’ve probably added many flowers. I am satisfied with my heart made from nature for what I had around to make it.

My Andy Goldsworthy-inspired art was heavily influenced by the photos of gradients, rocks and spirals in the slideshow, so I tried combining those three ideas by using landscaping rocks from my backyard. Next time, I could maybe try to integrate more of my surroundings and a more interesting angle or background to make it appear more natural.

# data[].attributes.body
My Earth Day Art is a dead stick placed in a pot of soil with death leaves attached to its limbs. It is away from the sunlight with rocks surrounding it’s stem, as if in a graveyard. In a way this symbolizes our efforts to save our planet, I gave it absolutely no chance to improve and hoping it still grows.

The purpose of my photograph is to display the beauty of the nature that is all around us. I was really inspired by the beach photographs that we saw on the slideshow, so I decided to put my own spin on it. I used some sand from the beach and some seashells that I found (some I already had) to create this mandala-type design. I think that next time, I could maybe use a larger variety of shells, but other then that, I really like the way that this turned out and it was super fun to create!

I used wood chips from the left over split wood on the ground. I tried to make my own version of the artwork Miss Catto showed us. I really enjoyed the spirals so I made this. Next time I think I should get a higher point on top of the art and get a clear picture.

# data[].attributes.body
The purpose of this picture was to show how beautiful flowers and leaves are. I decided to get a lighter flower as the background because I wanted more people to be considerate on the green leave and I added the same flower as the background on top to show the detail. Next time, I think I should have gotten better lighting because I find that it not a main factor in this picture.

The purpose of this picture was to shelter a little rock statue from the storm that was to come that you can see in the background. So I gathered sticks and rocks from the yard and looked for a nice background. After finding the background I wanted Started assembling this little tipi and then balanced the rocks on each other and took this picture. Next time I could've maybe looked a little longer for more colourful rocks to have a little more pop in the statue.
