Morikami Museum Visit

        The Morikami Museum was so beautiful. I remember very little about my first visit when I was about 5 years old and it was such a refreshment and it was like seeing the garden for the first time again. The weather was crisp. The garden was peaceful and calm. We got there right when they opened so there wasn't a lot of visitors which made the garden almost a private experience. The landscaping and the weather at the time made me feel like I time traveled to Japan in a split second. Everything was just perfect!

Small Work#1 Garden

For my small work assignment I chose Treetops park in Davie, Florida for my 30 minute writing and drawing. After walking a small trail in the middle of the park I captured this scenery of a quiet calm lake. the weather was cool and the sky was clear. The lake was filled with catfish, turtles, alligators and you could even see quite a few ducks as well. It was very serene and peaceful.

Combined Sentance Exercise

My partner and I made a lake scenery with oak trees inhabited by spiders.

Serene lake 

Walking the end of a breathless take,

Approaching the beginning of a clear serene lake,

Vibrations of wind, birds, water, and hushed cars,

how I wonder what it's like being here with the night stars.

A surface roofed with Lillies, trees, and bush features,

In the water lies catfishes, turtles, ducks and other living creatures.

The scent of clear air, flowers, and fresh pine,

a place so peaceful a place of sublime. 

With open fields and woods condense,

The grass is rich in color and clearly immense. 

The sky, vast and partially clear, 

Clouds of cirrus and stratus I spot from the pier. 

As the wind softly blows the surface with tension,

the water is still clear you can see another dimension.  

As I leave, my last breath I take,

I long to come back to the beautiful, quiet, serene lake.

Propaganda Portrait

For my in-depth project I drew Gordon Ramsey as an admirable portrait using white and black charcoal. The left portrait is the admirable and the piece on the right is the propaganda portrait depicting a workplace bully. I had a lot of fun with this project considering that I highly admire Gordon Ramsey.

FIU Frost Museum

Lewis Hine's "Little spinner in mill" shows a young girl in a mill factory. By observing the piece, you can see the mess on the floor and you can depict that the girl was working in poor working conditions and how dangerously close she is to the machines. You can even see that her shirt is stained and worn out from her working in the factory and by the look on her face I wouldn't guess that this was a dream job of hers.
