The meaning behind a piece of art can be as simple or as complex as the artist wants. When I do art I try to have a message that I want people to see. Last year I went against Large mammals in aquariums by using newspaper headings and pictures from news articles. This year my piece is going to be around a green world. Part of it is green happy planet the other part is going to be things we buy or that bad things we do.
I have finished cutting out most of what I want I just need to cut out pictures of computers and other electronic devices. I have enough words, phrases and pictures of nature.
I am choosing between An earth or the sun or a cell for how I am going to create my piece and will look at diagrams of the different ones and see which ones jump out at me.

Drawing and Mountail Life
October 25, 2012
We have started drawing at the beginning of Thursday classes. Today we drew lines and circles using coffee, India ink, pastels, and pencils. I liked working with the coffee and ink on the white paper the best because you can see everything very clear.
After drawing I went back to what I was working on last class. I cut out some sporty pictures from the Mountain Life magazine. I was able to find more words that I could cut out and I like the pictures better than in the previous magazine.
I need to find some pictures of computers and other electronics so that I can have the electronics at the center and everything else around them. I still don't know what this will look like in the end or how I'm going to do it.

100 years of National Geographic
October 23, 2012
I came into the art room with today with no idea what to do next. I just finished our classes lated project and was ready for something else. That came to me in the form of an old issue of National Geographic from 1988. The issue had old pictures from 1888 that caught my eye as well as pictures from the USA from 1988. There was another issue of National Geographic that I took pictures from but these were of various animals. I took all the pictures I cut out and divided them into animals and people.
I want to do some sort of collage type thing but I want to make it 3D and not just your everyday collage.
I experimented with transferring pictures onto tape and lets just say I am not very good at it. I want to get more pictures from magazines and make an earth with all of the pictures I took on top of a layer of blue, green and brown paint but I don't want it to be a circle because our world isn't perfect.
