(1) · Don't do what I did, it did not work out lmao. (1) · Don’t procrastinate!!! That was the biggest struggle for me was actually sitting down and doing the work.

Capdescription:
Along the way, taking baby steps, I will learn and understand about people’s view. A lot of people see graffiti as a crime, but not for me.

(1) · Before this whole mess started, I was going to be a Stage Manager in our school’s musical production “The Addams Family.” I was given the position as stage manager because my teacher, Ms. Gates, saw me as a responsible student and trusted me to watch over a group of students.

(1) · In a series of paintings with TSAS subjects, I wanted to showcase many (but not all) people with different background and ethnicity.

Human beings, no matter the people we associ (1) · My capstone is about how my internship at discovery lab affected my future career in teaching. The internship taught me responsibility, patience, and amiability in stressful situations.

(1) · My senior project is a small time line of my running experience at TSAS and all the medals and awards I've won during my time there. I also have pictures when I went overseas to run. (1)
Capstonebegin:
None (1) · I described my capstone as "a series of paintings that speak for different types of people." It was exactly as I ended up with! I wanted to expose people to the concept of our differences being skin deep. Regardless of our born identities, we aren't different. Our cultures may be different, and our (1) · I originally described it as a furthering of talents I already had — learning composition for drawings and paintings, making my own molds and designing my own resin pieces, and learning how to sew better (I had basic knowledge before). (1) · I planned on doing my project on my cross country training. (1) · I started off with wanting to teach myself how to crochet, but after talking with Ms Gates, she helped me to decide what I wanted to do with my Capstone. (1) · I started with the intention to write the whole book, which would look somewhere around 20 or so chapters. I knew it wouldn't have happened in the end, but I wanted to set the end goal for myself. (1) · I started with what got me into photography and how it changed my point of view with art, and how to create stories behind the art from one’s view. (1) · It was about old English vs new English at first, but then I loved Discovery Lab so I did that instead. (1) · Making a water to combustible gas conversion engine. (1) · Originally, my capstone started out with expanding my skill set with different kinds of printmaking to expand my portfolio. I had planned on doing three linoleum prints, three etchings, and printing on textile with soft blocks. The linoleum and the etching pieces were going to be a series of three, (1)

None (2) · I instead ended up writing 3 chapters and editing them, and, while I'm not the most proud of how they turned out, I'm glad I was able to finally put out some drafts for later writing. (1) · I took away the composition stuff because I found the resin aspect to be way more fun. I also added propmaking because cosplay is something I love doing, and I love designing different aspects of characters that I can make myself. A lot of the projects I had planned had to be cut simply because I di (1) · My plan did change because I wasn’t planning on making a video, I was planning on making a clear display with my photos hanging and lights around them with what I wrote in the center of my display. (1) · Not everything went exactly as I planned it! While I didn't ever change the premise of my Capstone, I had a lot of issues with productivity and eventually, a lack of supplies.

(1) · Things didn't really go as planned at all.

Originally I was going to describe my experience as a Stage Manager, but then I decided to include how (1) · Unfortunately my idea for the etchings went out the window as the trip was postponed.

I was able to finish one of the big linoleum plates a (1) · Yes I planned but it got ruined so I had to do it at home. My plan was to perform while selling my art work. We saw this coming, too. (1)
Capreflection:
A learned why people hate graffiti and think it’s a crime. I’m learning it as if I was just born. (1) · I had to quit scooting shortly after the problem, so I wish I was able to make it better sorry. (1) · I learned that it is a lot harder to do something than to say you're going to do them. I wanted to compensate for what I felt insecure about, and struggled a lot because of it.

I would go between periods of excess and then nothing at all, and felt a lo (1) · I learned the important values of responsibility, dedication, teamwork, and leadership.

(1) · Like everything in the world right now, life is unpredictable. Things don't go as planned and that’s very true with art as well.

Printmaking (1) · Resin is way more finicky than I ever imagined. It's also not safe to touch without gloves. That was a good scare. Also, fur fabrics are the bane of my existence, but they're worth using because they cover up seam mistakes (also if you use the right ones, they're such a nice texture!). I also lear (1)
