Describe what you tried to do I tried to dress up how I usually dress at a family party. At these family parties, people dress with “ranchero” attire and I blend in with them because thats the “norm” or way of dressing at these events. If you dress like this on a regular day, youContinue reading “Wk/Idea #7 – We need to talk about Beauty”

I chose this idea because I feel like it’s been extremely relevant, especially in today’s time. “Immigration” is also something that I feel extremely passionate about and I have been discussing a lot lately in most of my classes. People have mixed emotions about immigration and some people can be extremely against it and haveContinue reading “Wk/Idea 6: Art can be Shocking!”

I chose to do my story about two issues my community, South Los Angeles, faces: homelessness and graffiti. Unfortunately, all throughout my city, you will find homeless people living on every corner of mostly every street. The city itself is also covered with graffiti. People will “tag” all over walls, trucks, over murals, schools, etc.Continue reading “Wk 5/Idea #5: Photo Story Activity”

This art activity was definitely fun overall. The only “frustrating” feeling I would get was whenever I would make a mistake and would be highly tempted to use an eraser and erase my mistake. Instead of erasing, I had to blend my mistake in and hope it would not be noticeable. I personally do enjoyContinue reading “Wk 4/Idea #4: Drawing is also a Language”

2. Discuss the Form, Aesthetics & Content of your art. Formal Qualities: For my group art activity, we chose to do scenery rather than a specific object. The scenery featured a very large tree with nice dark green leaves that covered it’s branches. Aesthetics: The scenery we captured with our frame can be describes as soothing toContinue reading “Wk 3/Idea #3: You can Find Art Anywhere!”

To me, “abstraction” is something that doesn’t necessarily aim for objectivity. This can be anything from a burst of colors to different materials being gathered and displayed as a “weird” shape. At first, I preferred more “representation” art pieces over “abstraction”, but after the discussion we had during class, I was able to view abstractionContinue reading “Wk 2/Idea #2: Abstraction is Freedom”

“Women’s work” to me should feel equal to men’s work. During class, we discussed how women work is considered to feel more emotional based work, such as being the one who raises children, teachers, nurses, etc, while men’s work is more “physically” demanding. Women’s work to me is anything done by a female-identifying person. WorkContinue reading “Wk 1/Idea #1 – “Women’s Work” is also art”
