Persona 1 and Persona 2 edited

The first persona I created by using magazine images and colored pencils was about a woman who is a famous actor that hates the attention the fame gives her. I created this persona by cutting things that I thought would relate to my point and somehow fit them all in to make a story. Melinda is hiding in her house, but people still find her and like the guy standing outside, they all want her attention and recognition. The man’s name is Jonah, who wants to pursue a life with her and marry her for fame. Melinda is tired of everyone pretending to be friends with her for the things that she is famous for and just wants to be left alone. The main point behind this story is that rather than love, money, and fame, give people truth.

Glazed Sculpture

The goal of this project was to include different things that represent you. I chose to sculpt a manican because I want to go to college for fashion and drawing. I also included other little symbols that represent other things in my life that are important to me. I added a light bulb to my sculpture to represent that I am intelligent. I also added an upside down question mark because sometimes I am put into situations where I do not know what the right decision is, but in the end it always turns out for the better. The final symbol I put on my sculpture was a transition between summer and fall because I love the summer and the fall. The summer is so peaceful and hot unlike winter which in my opinion is depressing and cold. I chose to glaze it green with yellow because the malachite glaze was very appropriate for my piece I thought. The yellow would represent the leaves and the summer. Overall, my sculpture was a success and it represents who I am and what I resemble in life.
