1. What I learned in Visual Arts Term is that making a puppet takes time and lots of work to make a wonderful puppet. I also learned that value is important in art, but it's even more important to learn shape, forms and proportion if I want my drawings skills to get better and more skilled.
2. So far, the homework I'm very proud of is the puppet project because even though it didn't came out perfect, it's still a very pretty puppet and I'm proud of it. I worked hard on that homework!
3. One time in art class, the model did three different poses and I have to draw them all on paper. I think this is great for boosting my art skills because it builds skills such as sizes or forms as well as creativity. This art is called self portrait. It has negative spaces and positive spaces as well. It's a very cool drawing with dramatic poses.
4. My goal is to learn as much about media as possible, because I really want to learn how to do 3-D animation! I want to learn how to make great models, realistic to simple, big to small, cute ones to scary ones, all sorts of kinds, because I can play around with textures and the appearances. But most of all is I want to learn how to make the model move. I know it has length, width and height, but that's about it. I want to start from basic, then climb my way forward until I mastered it. What I do know about term 2 media is that it's not just about 3-D animation, it has photo shops and other things. If I'm lucky enough, I hope I'll master so many cool art skills in Media! For Figure drawing, I think it will get harder. Challenges can be very interesting but hard at the same time. I'm also improving on my art skills, which is great. I'm not sure if I'll be focusing more on value (adding shadows), or other basic things, just to the next level, level 2. I'm not sure what Design 1 really is, my best guess is when I hear or see the word "design," fashion comes to mind. Fashion is all about designing clothes, from common ones to very fancy, high class ones. I know some hand sewing, and that fashion designing needs a pattern. Nowadays, there are sewing machines, which is much faster than hand sewing, possibly more neat, too, with lots of sophisticated sewing details. Despite all this fashion, I wonder what other designs I will learn that I never knew. To sum it all up, I want to learn as much as possible in Term 2 in visual art classes!

My First Post!
1. I came to Boston Arts Academy to learn more about art. I want to improve my drawing skills and become an amazing artist! I want to achieve my dream as an animator. I want to work hard and show the world that I can do anything as long as I believe in myself and focus on my dream, and make that dream come true. I felt that Boston Arts Academy is a great place to go because I can learn much more about art from art teachers, professional artists and improve my drawing skills massively. Now that I'm in Boston Arts Academy, I will give my all and work toward that dream I've been dreaming so long.
2. One thing I hope for my future as an artist is to become a famous animator! I want to start from baby steps, practicing my skills in Boston Arts Academy. After I've mastered all these skills, I want to go ahead and start making animations! I want to make all sorts of animations - Anime, stop motion, 2-D animation, even 3-D animation! But the animation I really want to make is either 2-D animation or 3-D animation. I want to show off all of my improved drawing skills I've been working hard on all these years and put it all together into a unique 2-D animation. For 3-D animation, I just want to impress others with beautiful 3-D fluid animation. Many 3-D shows look so beautiful in 3-D, so I thought it would be lovely if I learned to make 3-D as an artist as well!
3. I went to the Museum of Fine Arts on 9/15. I saw beautiful paintings created by the talented Jaime Wyeth. One piece of painting that got stuck on me is mostly the seagull painting. I got impressed that Wyeth made the painting out of water color, it looks like oil painting! The painting of seagulls he created and many other paintings he made is so beautiful to stare at. He's an amazing artist!
4. In general, what I learned from the exhibitions is that Wyeth took his time to paint. He focused on his art and enjoyed every minute of his hard work. I saw a video of him painting the seagull painting, and I can tell he's enjoying what he's doing. He also made many paintings, he practiced all his life painting. He painted differently on different paintings, like some are blurry, others are detailed, others are portraits, some even came from his imagination! When you take your time painting, and you enjoy at the same time, the painting will come out even more beautiful than expected.
