Self Reflection


I did my window reflection, in obviously, a window.

Self Portrait Series



I like how my self-portrait all revolved around lightings, but I don't like how the cropping tool came out. The real reason I wanted to use light was to kind of give a deeper meaning, as there's always a bright spot somewhere even in bad times. Each picture revolved around me being me, and doing things I enjoy. Please comment and let me know how you feel.

5 Favorite Works of ART!

This is a sculpture of Michael Jordan in Chicago outside of the United Center, it was created by the "Amaranys" and was bronzed at the Art Casting in Illinois. I love this sculpture because it looks extremely life like as well as demonstrates how great Michael Jordan was.
This is by Andre Derain and it's called "Portrait Of A Girl In Black", and was created in 1913. I love this picture because I did a project on it, and it reminds me of the class I had and the friends in it.
This picture doesn't have a name and I wasn't sure who took it, but I picked this because it told more of a story to me. Every baseball player goes through ups and downs and a mountain top kind of demonstrates winning a championship.

Jackson Pollock had some amazing art, and I love this painting because he just splattered it all over. Everything meant something to him, and last year in art 1 I tried doing this, and had a blast.
Willie Mays made the best catch of all time, whirled around and threw the ball in to prevent the run from scoring all in one big motion. This photograph shows the start of the play and the most amazing catch.
