WHAT ABOUT MY MASTERPIECE

Around this time I have still doodled some things using Sai paint tool and Photoshop. I've done mostly side projects and small drawings that compile up to my entire project.

LOVE IS BLIND

explain the difference in the way Macbeth sees Lady Macbeth and how the audience sees Lady Macbeth.

Macbeth ultimately see his wife trying to do all these things for him like assist him in becoming king because she's his wife. Clearly she wants the best for him right? WRONG. The audience sees her as a horrible woman who's manipulative in order to get what she wants even if its using her own husband for her own doing.

THIS IS ONLY A TEST

I was distracted a lot during my masterpiece work. I was drawing nearly everyday. But when I wasn't I was participating In multi-editor projects,  editing random things for fun and attempting to animate still images. Side things that required collaboration, imagination and art! ♥


What's a soul mate? Just a random video.. Then practicing still images for the first time.

Masterpiece Essay;

To return to my subject, there is nothing like alluring the appetite and affections; otherwise you make nothing but so many asses laden with books; by dint of the lash, you give them their pocketful of learning to keep; whereas, to do well you should not only lodge it with them, but make them espouse it. (1580)
The word espouse originally meant "to marry" and took on connotations like "embrace," "love," and "advocate."  Have you espoused learning?  Explain your growth in this course via a narrative that portrays you as the dynamic protagonist in your own bildungsroman.  Please include the following elements.



 ELEMENT 2: Fiction has been called "the lie that tells the truth."  Which works, authors, or characters rang true enough to make you feel like they described parts of you and/or your journey? (Please mention at least three.  It makes them sad when we forget them.)


 ELEMENT 4: [Something about literature or this course that made you laugh out loud.]

ELEMENT 5: [A unifying theme that runs through a minimum of five (5) presentations; a quality of the content, or the speakers, or their communication techniques that strikes you as something important that we have in common.]  Please illustrate/support your point with specific examples from the presentations.

ELEMENT 6: Evaluate whether you completed the hero's journey.  Are you a hero?  To what extent did you respond to the call of adventure?  Did you find a mentor, conquer a challenge, and return enlightened?
A hero's journey is a quest. A quest is
a long or arduous search for something. During the masterpiece process we all were on a quest to find something of value and that we enjoyed. This thing of value was our passion and outside the norm of school curriculum. I responded to my quest in finding value in the thing I adore, art. I went beyond the traditional art form of pencil and paper, moved into paints, computer animation, and video editing without intentionally doing so. For a mentor I had my peers who are also interested in several types of art such as graphic drawing, and painting.


I am a strong advocate for anything art-related, videos, animation, typography or simply picking up a pen and paper. Why am I an advocate for anything art-related? When an AVID learner within any type of setting such as a classroom, art studio or a kitchen has the freedom to choose their own curriculum, so the specific individual finds value in what they are learning the outcome is bound to be unbelievable. Trust is a must when freedom is given. All the classes combined earned, and deserved this freedom. By following OTHER people's curriculum for years and years, the class has earned the trust that comes with this freedom. The display of masterpieces that involve going out and actually putting their words into actions demonstrates how every individual honored it. Art helps enhance the learning experience in a creative way that allows the individual to check their improvement over time.

Along the process of discovering "What am I passionate about?" the obvious option came up, drawing. I've always doodled during the school days in my notebooks, but not too often when I sat down seriously, and attempted to finish a bigger piece. My showcasing of art allowed me to recreate some of the more serious projects while I got to reconnect and dabble in some animation, and video editing. The learning is constant with drawing, simply watching a video of another artist doing a neat trick and mimicking it can improve my own skills. The process over learning to edit and animate will only halt if I stop opening the software. Where as the drawing will be constant, I am always bored, pen and paper are always at easy access.
