It was quite fun to experiment with different ways of viewing myself and changing different aspects to show different things.

(2) What is difference between the experience of “playful” observation and “careful" observation ?  (comparing experience of looking for faces and drawing with multiple perspectives for last 2 exercises...)
Playful observation was more fun and I was free to think however i wanted and be creative in my own way. During careful observation, it was more restricted and boring.]]> 2018-04-16 04:07:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/251985646 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/252002814 2018-04-16 06:22:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/252002814 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/252003702 2018-04-16 06:25:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/252003702 30 April 2018 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/258396553 Trip to National Gallery]]> 2018-05-07 04:29:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/258396553 7 May 2018 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/258400275 1. stencilling

Explain.
I think I have used contrast well. The black and white backgrounds contrast, and the plain bread and colourful toast contrast in colour.

(2) Describe the way you had used materials in your work. 
I used acrylic paint to add colour to the drawing, and water to create the drip effect or make colours diluted, such as the shadows.

(3) Do you think you have convey the message of your work well?
Yes, as it is clear that after the bread goes in to the toaster, it comes out as colourful. This shows that the bread has found its identity, thus conveying the concept of self-identity and self-discovery.

(4) Is there any part of your work that you think you had done well ? Explain.
I think I have coordinated the colours well. I used the colour wheel to decide which colours to use such that they would compliment each other.

This is because when we filled our muffin tins, it was not even. The less fat cupcake was less sweet than ours, and it was more moist and soft. Ours was burnt slightly on the top. The less fat cupcakes are healthier as there is less sugar and butter in it, resulting in less fat as well. I prefer the less fat one, as it is and softer, and even though it is less sweet, i prefer the rich butter taste. 
Ways to make cupcakes healthier:
1. add less butter
2. add less sugar
3. don't add icing or unhealthy toppings such as chocolate chips, rainbow rice etc.; opt for healthier options e.g. jam or fruits]]> 2018-07-23 03:17:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/270832296 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/270832670 2018-07-23 03:21:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/270832670 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/270832703 The cookies and cupcakes that we baked]]> 2018-07-23 03:22:17 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/270832703 Lesson 4 - Chicken Rice ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/271438664 2018-07-30 11:23:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/271438664 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/271438707 2018-07-30 11:24:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/271438707 Lesson 5 - Brownies and Pizza ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/272046037 2018-08-06 06:14:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/272046037 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/272046095 2018-08-06 06:15:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/272046095 Decision Matrix ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/272046314 2018-08-06 06:17:52 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/272046314 Lesson 6 - Lasagna ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/272797601 2018-08-13 02:34:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/272797601 Lesson 7 - Bread ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/275507438 2018-08-27 12:43:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/275507438 Lesson 8 - Practical ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/279246566 I have modified and adapted the recipe from online to make it healthier. I have also chosen a recipe that uses a flour mixture.

I was able to manage time quite well and I finished 5 minutes before the time. I faced some difficulties as I forgot to add baking powder at first. However, I decided to sprinkle it over the dough and knead it in. It turned out okay. I would have been more careful to ensure that I do not miss out ingredients or make mistakes. Another problem was the oven was much smaller than the oven I had at home, so the scones took much faster to bake and burned slightly at the top when I checked it halfway. I would have set the oven to a lower temperature and constantly checked the scones.

The nutritional tools such as food pyramid helped me to find out which ingredients I should decrease and which are healthier. I was able to make a flour mixture using the rubbing in method. The investigative activities were useful in helping me find out which was the best in terms of time management, healthiness and manipulative skills. I was able to choose a dish that was both more healthy than usual and delicious.]]> 2018-09-10 03:12:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/279246566 ashley_peng04 https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/282070299 2018-09-17 01:19:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ashley_peng04/pjjynilh5iuw/wish/282070299
