(1) · Find something you care about and see where it takes you. (1) · If it's hard, the reward is more fulfilling. If you have a skill or talent, pursue it, don't wait for tomorrow or next week.

I took s (1) · 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) · For my project, I created a business that covers Photography, Painting, Prints, Literary Books, Blogging, and More! I hope that my work can make an impact on people, at a reasonable price.

The second element was the continuation of my work with the non (1) · My capstone is based on the concept of seeing something you like, thinking "I can make/do that, too," and learning how to do it without spending much money. For this project I focused on resin, sewing, and propmaking (for cosplay). (1) · My capstone is my depop shop. I started making jewelry sophomore year, and selling it.

Starting out with the original drawing I have in my sketchbook to having a print. (1) · My project is a song that I've been working on since the beginning of September.

None (1) · A collection of short stories coupled with paintings. (1) · A sort of TED talk like presentation. (1) · I described it the same: how social media effects a person and how it changes your mind. (1) · I had always planned to involve my art in my capstone. (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 originally started out with an idea to create a book about the physio-psychological impacts of music. But as time went on I kept gravitating towards piano and eventually decided to make a song on piano instead. (1) · I originally was writing a blog on the different hobbies and skills I was teaching myself and documenting the progress and how it shaped me as a person.

(1) · I started with an animation video explaining my plan to balance my practical job with my art job. (1) · I was going to be volunteering at a local children’s museum.

Capchange:

Nothi (1) · Although capstone did take an unexpected turn, it wasn't difficult to adjust to the new changes. (1) · At first my project revolved around wire-wrapping and jewelry in general, and then I realized I enjoy making earrings more. As I continued making earrings and trying to do it with only beading, I realized I enjoyed making earrings out of fun objects and creatures more than only using beading. Anothe (1) · Due to lack of enrichment and work, I decided to change my capstone to photography. Luckily enough, I had already been attending a photo class.

A lot of the projects I had planned had to be cut simply because I di (1) · My capstone experiences ended up being a blend of non-profit work and teaching. While it didn't follow my initial proposal, what I learned throughout my experience has informed elements of how I am approaching the speech and debate program for incarcerated women. Overall, I decided that I wanted exp (1) · My first idea was scrapped because I found that I didn’t have a passion for any practical job and couldn’t be happy with settling for an office job. (1) · So it was going as planned, and I even had a backup which is my book I'm writing but I didn't finish my book in time and I wasn't really impressed my how I wrote in my blog, so I changed it to my depop shop, that way all my work is the same but just presented in a different fashion.

(1) · I was overworking myself and took on too big of a workload. (1) · I've realized I wasn’t happy with living a practical life.

(1) · I, weirdly enough, learned something about confidence, which I just wasn't expecting considering this is a project about creating jewelry.

(1) · I’m glad that I did something I was genuinely interested in. I use social media frequently so I was curious about the studies done on it. (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) · One of my takeaways from my capstone—and senior year as a whole—is to define what your limits are and to be realistic and flexible with your expectations for yourself.

The capstone experience taugh (1) · Our generation sadly cares more about passing than learning, though I don’t know who’s fault it is. (1) · Overall I've learned that I'm capable of writing sheet music. I've improved my playing skills and I've also greatly improved my sheet music skills.

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) · Well I learned how to embroider, and a bunch of other little skills like that.
