Art Class

My name is Jennifer I'm a freshman I really don't like art and, when I saw that I had art I thought it was going to be boring. The first days were boring because, it was the beggining of the school year but, as time pass the class became interesting and fun because, we started doing mini projects some of the projects I didn't like them but, I did them anyways because there were for a grade. finally we made projects I really enjoy doing them but only three of all of the projects we did this year I like. My first favorite project was when we conbine two different countries and make a drawing or a 3-D model of the same characteristics they had. My second favorite project was when we created a book and my third favorite project was when we made a pinata. This three projects I really enjoy doing them and, I had more fun doing this three projects than all of the projects we did all year.
    All this three projects required a lot of materials and time for example, my first favorite projects was kind of hard because, I had to look two things that two countries had in common and, since I wanted to make a 3-D model I wanted to be a good model. Finally after a lot of thinking and reaserch I finally came up with a great model my model had grean mountains made out of green paper, I use branches of real trees and they were my trees for my moel then I cut a cirle and painted yellow since that was going to be my sun, I added some paint too to make it more real. My second project was the book in this one we use six sheets of paper and fold them to make it look like a bunch of paper then we made wholes on them, we use some strings to stick them together after all of that was done we went for a piece of cardboard we made whole too equal size and in the same place so the book wouldn't look weird or anything like that after that we use the piece of string to put everything together after all of that was done you got to decorate your book whatever way you wanted. The last project was the pinata, now this project was the one that required a lot of time because, we use balloons and they pop easily sometimes when you e=were about to finish they will pop and then you had to start over . For this project we use balloons and a lot of glue and paper and most important your imagination. When the balloon was filled with air you had to cover it with paper strips and wet them with glue you had to put a lot of them because, if you put a little the balloon was not going to be hard enough and it might pop but after covering the ballon finally you finish and, had to wait until it was dry. When it was dry you had to color the balloon and then put some especial paper to make it look more alive but, that was only if you wanted too.
    All three projects had something in common and that is that they required a lot of time and effort. This projects had something that was really important for the class and that was to show you ability and to express your own style. It also need it a lot of paper and they were fun doing them you cant't really complain.
Another thing is that we recycle because, all of the paper that we use to make this projects were form the recicling bin because, they were already use and not to waist paper we use does that were just there in the classroom that were taing space.
    As all projects that we did all year theres always something different, and what makes this three projects different is that we usedifferent materials most of the timefor example for the first project we use branches of trees, for the second project we use string and some needles, for the last project we use a balloon.
    At the end all the hard work and time  I put on this three projects that were my favorite ones all year long pay off I got a good grade and I started to like art class. Mr.Renner made it fun when it got to do projects, he was always letting us express ourself because that's what art is all obout expressing yourself. I  enjoy art class and I knd of draw a little bit better than when I first started.
