In English class, we were encouraged to find our core values and \u201cessence objects,\u201d things that are very meaningful to us. Our core values and essence objects would be essential to our projects for the rest of the semester, from creating a mandala to making a public service announcement, we had the chance to do a lot of self-reflection this semester. I am very happy with what I made this semester and very grateful for having the opportunity to be more meaningful this semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mandala<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Making a mandala was the first thing we started to work on in Digital Media this semester. After learning how to create templates, we got to experiment with different brushes to help us make our mandala our own. My mandala is inspired by the elements, of earth, fire, water, and air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No Color vs Color <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"beforeAfter\">\n\t<div id=\"Mandala\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img2020before\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Mandala-no-color.png\" alt=\"Mandala black and white\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img2020after\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Mandala-color.png\" alt=\"Mandala colored\">\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#dbe6f5\">If the image does not display,<br>On a Mac, press Command + (plus) then press Command &#8211; (minus)<br>On a PC, press the Cntrl + (plus) then press the Cntrl &#8211; (minus)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Creating this mandala was definitely not the easiest, and I found myself constantly getting stuck with what to do next. Coming up with things I was happy with was a challenge, but doodling random shapes and lines on my mandala helped me find something I was pleased with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am very happy with the final products of my mandala. We got to create a video of us making it, as well as it getting it engraved on a piece of our choice. I really like how the engraved piece turned out, and I think the border being non-circular is a nice touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mandalawood.jpg\" alt=\"wood engraving\" class=\"wp-image-1416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mandalawood.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mandalawood-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mandalawood-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mandalawood-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mandalawood-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Final wood engraving!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Laser Engraved Mandala Artist Statement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the final piece of our Mandala project and I am so happy with how it turned out. In the beginning, I wished I spent more time on it and given it more details, but I love how the engravings turned out. I am glad I picked this piece because I was able to customize the border around the mandala so it wasn&#8217;t just cut out in a circle. I can&#8217;t wait to put it in my room when I get it back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"22 23 p5 Mandala KaliM\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7NSy2Zi3Ldc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Photoshop Art<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pastel Painting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For this assignment, I decided to paint the Shoreline amphitheater, a picture I took when I was at a concert recently.

I had a lot of fun completing this project because in Design we also had a project that had us work with brushes in Adobe Photoshop. My favorite part of this project was probably getting to experiment with different brushes, and renaming the ones I enjoyed so I could refer back to them in future projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/watercolor.jpg\" alt=\"Sunset\" class=\"wp-image-1451\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/watercolor.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/watercolor-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/watercolor-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/watercolor-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/watercolor-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Finished Watercolor Painting<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Water Color Effects<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using Photoshop, we took original photography and turned it into watercolor art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1461\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/sunsetwatercolor.png\" alt=\"sunset\" class=\"wp-image-1461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/sunsetwatercolor.png 600w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/sunsetwatercolor-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/sunsetwatercolor-400x533.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1460\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/artroomwatercolor.png\" alt=\"art room\" class=\"wp-image-1460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/artroomwatercolor.png 600w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/artroomwatercolor-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/artroomwatercolor-400x533.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1462\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/pumpkinwatercolor.png\" alt=\"pumpkins\" class=\"wp-image-1462\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/pumpkinwatercolor.png 600w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/pumpkinwatercolor-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/pumpkinwatercolor-400x533.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">Photos with Watercolor Effect<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Surreal Art<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This project combined our English World Building unit with our new photo compositing skills in Digital Media. When coming up with our world in English, I focused more on the world itself while my partner worked more on the characters. Our world consists of many, spread-out urban cities. I decided to take a small spin on this concept and make the cities floating in space, which although is not accurate to our story, sometimes our characters may feel like they are floating in space. In the end, I had a lot of fun making each island, the buildings came from the same photo and I got to separate them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surrealbts.png\" alt=\"behind the scenes\" class=\"wp-image-1454\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surrealbts.png 1000w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surrealbts-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surrealbts-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surrealbts-640x360.png 640w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surrealbts-400x225.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Behind the Scenes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"616\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surreal.png\" alt=\"final surreal art\" class=\"wp-image-1456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surreal.png 616w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surreal-205x300.png 205w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/surreal-400x584.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 616px) 100vw, 616px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Final Surreal Art!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Design Projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pubic Service Announcement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The PSA project was introduced to us after we talked about our core values in English class. We were instructed to make a public service announcement based on our core values. My core values are ______. I decided to make my PSA about deforestation and forest fires, to hopefully encourage others to protect what\u2019s left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before designing our project, we were told to make a mood board with the color palette we wanted, along with some announcements that touched on similar issues.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"678\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psamoodboard.png\" alt=\"moodboard\" class=\"wp-image-1424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psamoodboard.png 900w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psamoodboard-300x226.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psamoodboard-768x579.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psamoodboard-640x482.png 640w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psamoodboard-400x301.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mood board<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After making our mood board, I started to design my final product. My idea was to make a path through a sparse forest, that has tree stumps and fallen trees, and the catchphrase on the path. I was struggling to create good trees for this project and went through many different possible designs. One thing I really enjoyed about this project is that I used my own handwriting to create the font. First I found a font I liked and then traced over it to make it more my own. With the outlines, I used the pen tool in Illustrator to make them cleaner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"369\" height=\"571\" data-id=\"1427\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts1.png\" alt=\"progress shot\" class=\"wp-image-1427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts1.png 369w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts1-194x300.png 194w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 369px) 100vw, 369px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"369\" height=\"571\" data-id=\"1429\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts2.png\" alt=\"progress shot\" class=\"wp-image-1429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts2.png 369w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts2-194x300.png 194w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 369px) 100vw, 369px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"557\" height=\"799\" data-id=\"1428\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts3.png\" alt=\"progress shot\" class=\"wp-image-1428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts3.png 557w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts3-209x300.png 209w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/psabts3-400x574.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 557px) 100vw, 557px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">PSA Behind the Scenes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"647\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deforestationpsa.png\" alt=\"finished psa\" class=\"wp-image-1431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deforestationpsa.png 647w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deforestationpsa-194x300.png 194w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deforestationpsa-640x989.png 640w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deforestationpsa-400x618.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 647px) 100vw, 647px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Finished PSA<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aboriginal Art<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Aboriginal project was about creating a piece based on a traditional Australian Indigenous piece, consisting of earthy colors. We were told to include our \u201cspirit animal,\u201d zodiac sign, constellation, and Aboriginal symbols. I decided that my spirit animal was a frog, and made it the focal point of my piece. One symbol that I incorporated into my piece was stars, which consist of one big circle surrounded by eight tinier circles. Although it may be hard to see, there is a big star on the back (or stomach depending on how you see it) of the frog, and smaller ones around the rest of the frog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"891\" height=\"826\" data-id=\"1434\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog.png\" alt=\"first outline of frog\" class=\"wp-image-1434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog.png 891w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog-300x278.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog-768x712.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog-640x593.png 640w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog-400x371.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 891px) 100vw, 891px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"949\" height=\"788\" data-id=\"1435\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog2.png\" alt=\"progress shot\" class=\"wp-image-1435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog2.png 949w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog2-300x249.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog2-768x638.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog2-640x531.png 640w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~KaliM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/frog2-400x332.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 949px) 100vw, 949px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">Behind the Scenes!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had a lot of fun working on this piece, however in my drawing class I was working on a stippling project, so having two classes that consisted of strictly dots made my hand hurt a lot.
