1. What different artistic processes did you do in this class and what did you learn?
I learned tips on how to make a better clay piece in this class. Instead of using a full piece of clay, I learned to use a hollow piece. By using a hollow piece of the structure of your clay piece is stronger.

2. Choose a place or artwork where the subject matter reflects you as an artist. One that you have a personal connection to. Please explain.
My art journaling piece is by far my most personal piece of art. I specifically made it for my friend Hope in mind. Each layer of the piece describes Hope because the general overview of the pass is very bright and colorful which describes Hope. It's my favorite piece because of the personal connection I have with it.

3. Do over: If given the opportunity, which project would you do over? Describe why and how you would redo this project. Reasons might include choosing a different theme, using a different medium or creating a different idea completely. Include photo.
If I were to do over a project I would do over my jellybean portrait. Even though it was my toughest piece it's the one I would go back and fix. This is because if I were to finish it exactly the way I wanted it would be something I'd be very proud of. I would go back and use one shade of each color in each specific part to make the overall piece much cleaner. When placing the jellybeans I would place them in one direction to make the piece cleaner too.

4. What is a technique you used in your artwork that worked well? Explain what technique it was and why it was successful.
I thought that anything I painted this semester was successful. It's the technique I am most comfortable with because I've used it in the past. Each piece I painted I enjoyed the actual process of it.

5. Pick two pieces that show how you have grown as an artist. Compare and contrast how you’ve grown, how the projects are related, and what you thought of each.
My first piece that I painted this semester was the Morphed Character between Princess Belle and Finn the Human from Adventure Time. It is overall a good piece but could of been cleaner. It was my first time painting in a long time though so that's why it is not as clean as it could've of been. The other piece is my Two in One with a mouth and leaf. I really love this piece because of its crispness. I had learned from my previous painting piece to pay attention to details and be careful when painting so I stay in the lines. These pieces relate to each other because they're both paintings.
