Mann,+Miranda

My name is Miranda I am a junior and 16 years old Potatoes are my favorite food



This project was succesful because I was able to insert my signature and make it more personalized. I enjoyed

working in a color scheme and adding shadows to my boxes. The background was the best part



The windows were my favorite part. I tried to make them look like a reflection of the space around them and feel I

was succesful. Big Bang Burger Bar was inspired from a favorite book of mine, //Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy//.

Altogether this project was very successful.

The Lloose is native to Northern Candadian Provinces. It is a crossbreed between a Llama and a Moose. The Lloose is an

elusive creature but not vicious. Unless the Lloose views you as a predator invading its territory, i t will not attack. Only four Llose attacks have been recorded.

Clone Project



This project was very simple and FUN. I enjoyed taking multiple pictures of myself and compiling them into one image.

The hardest part was trying to make the images look like they belonged together with shadows and the like. If I had four

clones of myself, I would be able to send one to math class everyday (so I wouldn't have to take it). Another could do my

homework and the last two would be like servants. I'd be a very happy person.



Surrealism doesnt have a set definition. It is the art of making something that isn't seem like something that could be. This

project was a lot of fun for me. I was able to create something I only thought possible in my mind seem real. My sister was

my model for every picture and that made it so much better. So far, this project was my favorite (though it took four ideas

until I had one I was happy with). What's happening in this project is the subject is seeing herself in the mirror,

experiencing different kinds of weather. The weather has moved into the room, and her reflections are popping out of the

mirror.



The principal of art I focused on was Unity. I wanted the project and the brushes to go together. Even though each brush

is very different, they combine to make the image seem unanimous.Every doodle was used to make it look like someone

could have drawn it. The overall effect of this project is fun. It looks likes something a bored student would do. I am very

pleased with how this project turned out.

Before and After

This project taught me how to use the Gaussian Blur. It takes the face and blurs it so the blemishes are less severe. I was also able to perfect my use of the healing brush tool and the spot removing tool. I got to experiment changing her hair and eye colors so they looked natural, but better. I also hid her tan line and brightened the image a little. Overall, it turned out to be a very informative project.



I chose Toby Turner (aka Tobuscus) the YouTube star. I may possibly be obsessed with him... He is a comedian, vlogger, singer/songwriter, and all together fantastic person. At the end of his vlogs he always does an "outro of darkness then redness then whiteness," which inspired my background. I like this quote because the truth of it really shines through. It gives you a glimpse of his personality, even if you're not familiar with him. This project was fun because I got to focus on a famous person I like without it looking like I was obsessively stalking them. I am very proud of the end result.

This room makeover was inspired by the makeover of my own room. We did shades of gray and black with a splash of color. I chose red because its a very deep and passionate color and contrasts well with the dark couch. The wall decal also adds to the elegant and sophisticated feel of the room. The candles on the table and the city for a background make it seem like an apartment. I am pleased with this room.



This Ad. I used pictures of my family and friends (who are like my family). I designed the logo myself, which I'm very proud of. I use polaroids and postcards in my designs a lot but it still works. The background also fit because the sand goes with the beach themed photos. I don't know what inspired me... Kodakgallery putting this album up for some reason, I guess.



For my self portrait I used words and people that are important to me, or descriptive of me. I really liked creating this project. The background was fun. The most prominent quote is by Dr. Seuss and states "You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams." It's one of my favorite quotes. This project was fun.



Paper Art Thepaper artist that I really like is Josh McKible. His line of paper art is called “Nani Bird.” ‘Nani’ means ‘what’ in Japanese. When Josh began living in Japan he found himself frequently asking “What? What?” about everything. That inspired him to make one hundred paintings about birds asking the same question. Still, he wanted something three dimensional- something you could //touch// and //hold//. So Josh turned his paintings of curious birds into paper art! Each bird has a speech bubble and is asking a plethora of questions. Other artists were inspired by his work and downloaded their own designs of ‘Nani Birds’ onto Josh’s site. I really like the originality and creativity Josh expresses through his paper birds. And what’s great is that he has all his birds downloadable for free.
