https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio This portfolio is a showing of the art that I, Martie Mahon, created during my time in ARE4314 at the University of Florida. Each piece is unique in textile and skill for the purpose of learning how I, as a future teacher, can incorporate art into my future classrooms and lessons. en-us 2021-06-18 14:38:52 UTC 2025-12-19 14:39:00 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f3a8.png martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614464014 This was a great way to start out the summer semester, with creativity and freedom. It was fun to ask my mom for help with this project.]]> 2021-06-18 14:51:22 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614464014 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614464671 I intended on this being lavender in the sun, but I believe it ended up looking more like corn :)]]> 2021-06-18 14:51:43 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614464671 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614465379 This project was definitely my least favorite this semester. I don't like the way that it turned out and would have rather done it on a computer. ]]> 2021-06-18 14:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614465379 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614467052 I can truly see myself doing this technique in my future classrooms because of its ease and inexpensive supply. ]]> 2021-06-18 14:53:02 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614467052 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614467487 This project was based upon Keith Haring's action figures and his use of negative space. The resistance method with oil pastels and watercolor paint was very fun to play around with.]]> 2021-06-18 14:53:16 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614467487 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614468660 I learned some very valuable skills with drawing faces that I have continued to practice, specifically eyes (i am obsessed with drawing them now!) I am very impressed with myself with this project because I didn't cry haha ]]> 2021-06-18 14:53:55 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614468660 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614469574 I actually had a mistake on this mask...the eyebrows were supposed to be two lines angling upwards but when I cut on a new crease, the eyebrows became arrows :)]]> 2021-06-18 14:54:26 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614469574 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614470260 2021-06-18 14:54:49 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614470260 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614470983 A lot of fun was had making this little book...I even named the main character after my sister, which she appreciated. I will keep the one-page book folding skill in my back pocket forever!]]> 2021-06-18 14:55:10 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614470983 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614471193 "Model Magic, more like Model Tragic"... I loved this quote from class. But despite model magic being a little hard to manipulate, I believe I did really well making my cow Maggie! I mixed red and white to make the pink accents (nose, ears, and utters).]]> 2021-06-18 14:55:17 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614471193 martie5151 https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614471774 This is my example for my interdisciplinary lesson plan. The main idea for the project is for students to recognize the inner qualities and external factors that has made them who they are: identity. 
Whereas I used oil pastels for texture, I believe I would change the medium to marker or crayon so that it would be easier for students and on the classroom wallet :)]]> 2021-06-18 14:55:36 UTC https://padlet.com/martie5151/ARE4314portfolio/wish/1614471774
