I think my best artwork of the semester is gonna be my big letter. Why?, because it has such a truthful meaning to me and to my life. The letter is a "B", because I liked being called Becca my whole life I never really liked being called Rebecca. Becca was just always shorter for Rebecca and I always liked it that way. This artwork is not finished yet but when it is done it will look really good. I still have to paint it and put pictures on it. I'm putting pictures on it because those are the major parts of my life the people or animals in those pictures make me who I am and they have formed me into who I am today. I love every single person and animal in those pictures they mean the world to me and I don't know where I would be without them. I would like to redo my last artwork which is the mother and daughter figure. Because I thought I could of did a lot better job carving it and shaping it and I would of did an easier figure to do out of plaster. Plaster is hard but it is easier to break it you hit the right spot. Also something I have learned in art class that I can apply to other classes are determination, hard work and to not give up no matter what. I can apply it to all my other classes because if I put my mind to it I can accomplish it and if I try and not give up I can do it. I just have to put determination into it and not give up and I might not do my best but I did my best and if I really need to I can do it over and do a better job next time. One thing I wish I could have done more in art class is clay. Because clay is fun to do and you can do so many things with clay and you can make so many different pieces with clay. I just enjoy doing clay in art class it is so fun to do and when you are finished you are so happy with what you have made you just want to make more and more. Clay is just so fun to play around with and build with since it is so flexible. It may get frustrating sometimes because it does break and it may not shape the way you want but if you try it works out.

Standards EvidenceThe standards I met in this artwork are A,B,C,D. The first standard is A and B, name at least one contemporary Minnesota American Indian Artist and Identify key ideas from contemporary Minnesota American Indian Artists.. I met that standard by looking at artworks and the American indian Artist that inspired me was Al Wadzinski or Frank Big Bear because they worked in college but Al Wadzinski works in sculptures and mixed media. My artwork is college and mixed media and it is also 3D. The second standard I met was C, Be able to explain personal beliefs, values and behavior. I met this standard by my artwork and through my artist statements. My last standard I met in this artwork is D, Explain how art reflects life and life reflects art. Well life is art and art is life. Life is art in so many different ways there are beautiful parts in life and terrible parts in life and you can turn them into art. And art is life because sometimes that art work was a part of life and it happened in real life and plus it can be a part of someone else's life. Artist StatementMy final artwork is a big 3D "B". I chose the letter "B" because I was always called Becca my whole life never Rebecca because I never really liked being called Rebecca. The only time I hear Rebecca is when I'm in trouble. Otherwise she always calls me Becca my whole family calls me Becca it's just what I prefered my whole life. The subject matter of this artwork is just importance in my life. I will be painting the "B" and putting pictures all over the letter because the pictures represent important people, quotes and animals that are in my life. Those people and things have made me who I am today. The Title of my artwork is "Letter B". The materials I used for this artwork are matte board, cups, acrylic gesso, acrylic paint called "sea blue", pictures and paper tape. Who inspired me for my artwork any 3D artists, or american indian artist who worked in 3D or collage because my artwork is a 3D collage letter. No my artwork doesn't not express a personal or social issue. It has a happy emotion to it because it's about the important and happy things in my life. My goals for this artwork were to make big 3D letter that is painted a pretty color and to have a collage of pictures on it. And to do a good job on my final artwork of the semester. My goals as an artist was to make something I haven't made before and I did a pretty good job making it in my opinion. My overall thoughts of this artwork are I did a good job gluing and placing the cups and making sure the letter is not lopsided. It is what I imagined because it turned out better than I thought it would. I might make another one I just need to find the materials and keep making them because they are fun to make and they are interesting to make also you learn a lot of things.
