My inspiration for this project was some kind of effect showing emotion. i mostly wanted to create photos with an effect like the first one, with water droplets on a mirror surface, and a flashlight flashing in a dark room to add more emotion. these are just some pictures that i found that were similar for the effect i was going for.

Pepper No. 30 – Edward Weston

What is the artist try to capture with this photograph?

The photograph Pepper No. 30 consists of a green pepper, toned to a rich contrast between the colors black and white.

Describe the use of line, shape, Pattern, texture, tone and focus

The artist uses lighting to create shadow with dark and light spots, also showing contrast between the white highlights and the dark shadows. The texture on the pepper gives it a soft, and incredibly smooth look.

Can an image show just one element at a time? Justify your answer.

Elements cannot be shown alone in an artwork, because elements are connected and often all work together. The most that you could do is make one element stand out more, but you cant just isolate one element.

The 57 Bus is based off of a real-life incident, talking about a story of an 18 year old agender person named Sasha, and 16  year old African-American teen named Richard. In the book, the author talks about the life story of these two teens, and all the trouble they had to go though before the accident, the fire. The main issues that are mentioned in the book are racism, gender, discrimination, and social justice.

I personally didn’t enjoy the book as much my classmates did, and I thought there were many parts that were difficult to understand and also kind of pointless. :/

In the image above, I write about the setting and explain what happened in the story. The setting is Oakland, California, and the accident happened on November 4th, 2013.  At the time Oakland was counted as the second most dangerous cities in the world, and 2/3 of all the accidents and deaths happened in the more poor area. That was also were Sasha got attacked by Richard.

This spider-graph shows the life of Sasha, her school life, her friends, and her experiences. It also shows what kind of person she is and her personality.

This cause and effect graph shows the different reasons why Richard has lit the skirt, and also shows what happened after the flames. Richards mistake was a bad idea and he really regrets his moves.

On this page, it has why Richard has been charged as an adult, although he was only 16, and also the reasons why he shouldnt have been charged this way. There are also many quotes to support why he shouldnt have been charged this way.

In conclusion, I didnt really like the book, however if you are interested in this topic and want to learn more about the lgbtq+ community, then you should definitely read this book.

Humanism during the renaissance is the time when everyone looked back to 500 B.C.E. – 400 C.E. when the ancient Greeks and Romans thrived. In this time, humanists learned about their art style, architecture, language (latin), and culture. The renaissance was also a time where science and technology was developed. For example, there was Leonardo Da Vinci with his sketches and designs of flying ‘airplane’ things, Nicolaus Copernicus who found out that the earth isn’t in the middle of the solar system but the sun is, William Shakespeare the english playwright, poet, and actor, and many many more others. (Most of these famous people were also humanists.)

As a result of my rankings, I guess you could say I am a humanist.
