For my art piece I chose to use what the book was about: Margaret Bourke White. I added the camera because it was a 3 ¼ x 4 ¼ Ica Reflex, the camera that she used (Her mother had bought it for $20.) and the bombers, B-17 or 'The Flying Fortress', was the bomber that she flew. Margaret was the first female bomber flyer and was the first female credited war photographer. The photo in the book was taken by her.

When I saw my book I instantly saw a picture of Mars on my book. It made me think about the solar system so I tried to represent that in my art. I wanted to incorporate pages from my book. It also looks like the solar system with the dots representing the Stars.

I chose to create a record player inspired by Kanye West's albums. He is struggling to stay into his buisness after the things he said. I really enjoy his music but him as a person I personally do not agree with. I used mixed media for the diffrent album covers. For my last project I wanted to use everything from acrilics to clay to oil pastels and everything in between.

For this project, I made a watercolor painting of some sand dunes that I had climbed this past summer. What inspired me to create this is the photo I took from atop the sand dunes near Grand Rapids, Michigan while I was on a family trip. My objective was to make a semi-realistic painting of those sand dunes, and I think I definitely accomplished that.

For my book art, I decided to make a canyon with a person looking over it. I made this to show the enormity of nature compared to man, and the massive scale of mother nature. I also wanted to show how books can paint beautiful landscapes only using paper and words.

I created this art piece because I was really inspired by elephants, and their massive size and beauty. I was also inspired by the sunset on the savannah in Africa, and I wanted to represent its beauty in an abstract way. This piece represents the power of nature, with the fiery colors of the sunset, and the majestic elephant. We need to protect nature, especially endangered elephants, before they and many other animals are all gone.

I chose to paint over a picture of a sunrise, and turn it into the night sky. My inspiration for this project was when I was at camp. I was able to look outside late at night, and see all of the details in the picture perfect night sky. I chose this idea because it shows calmness and how you have to stop and look around or else time will fly by.

This is my Michael Jordan chair that I did for my last project. I chose this chair because I love sports and basketball history has always rested well in me. The red and black resembles the colors of the Bulls, the team he was on most of his career. Everything about the chair resembles some part of Jordan’s lifetime or journey, because life isn’t about the ending, it’s about the journey.

For one of my projects in art class, I had to throw a dart and make something inspired by the country the dart landed on. I was aiming for Europe, but fate had other plans and the dart landed up Chad. I wasn't upset for long though because that's when I found the idea to make Zulu earrings. For the colors, I was inspired by the colors of the Chad flag, red, yellow, and blue. It represents the beauty of different cultures and how there is so much to learn about the world. In the end, I was able to create such a beautiful piece of culture from a completely new place.

This is a Viking Hunting bow in my own way. I made this because I am in love with Viking mythology and Vikings themselves. The Vikings to me were our original settlers, before Columbus.

Christmas. A time of happiness for all who celebrate. Some people think Christmas is a time when you wake up and get to open all of the presents. For me, Christmas brings joy and happiness. All of the symbols on the chair bring me happiness and joy and they all symbolize what I think Christmas is.

For this art piece, I decided to create a 3D version of  John Singer Sargent's Madame X painting. For the media, I decided to use acrylic paint, while using cardboard to make the paper pop-out more. When the painting made its first appearance in 1884, the painting was heavily criticized; which caused a lot of controversy around it. People claimed that the painting was too "unladylike" or "sexual" because of its off-shoulder dress strap (Which has been changed.) I painted this to show that women can be women, women will always be women.

For my book, I had the inspiration to create these two eyes popping out of the book. As I kept on creating I realized I wanted to add a leafy background to represent a forest. I overall wanted to create this illusion of a person in the woods at night. Like how you see an animal's eyes glow.

My dress is inspired by the idea of nature. The flowers represent nature and they are arranged in a way that is beautiful and unique. The green of the actual dress represents a stem, and the purple part a bloom. Nature is beautiful and we need to appreciate it before it is too late.

I made Benny the Bull from a bowling pin. Benny the Bull is the mascot of the Chicago Bulls and I created it because the Bulls basketball season started last week. I wanted to make something that connected to me and my everyday life.

Me and Lily came up with this idea, not just because it's fun, but because it means something. The bright colors and big shapes represent fun and happiness. Everyone has their own way of dancing and fun, this chair represents that. This is how we represent fun.
