Creativity- drawing (experience)

07/10/23 


I always enjoyed drawing so I decided to continue doing this, but I tried a new medium, markers.  I never used markers before but always wanted to try. I started drawing myself and other people from reference photos. I found using markers quite difficult since it was easy to use shades that were too dark and make mistakes that couldn't be erased. In the end, I only liked two of the faces I drew: the one on the top of the right-hand side paper and the bottom right on the left-hand side paper. Though I was not that satisfied with the results, I enjoyed working with this media and would like to use it again sometime in the future, to improve my skills. My goal is to improve my art skills by using media that I'm not fully confident in and trying new techniques.

 1) The qualities I admire in other people are loyalty, kindness, patience, empathy, thoughtfulness/consideration, respect, and supportiveness. I believe these are the qualities that make someone a good person. 2) Through CAS I hope to develop balance because this is especially important in IB since when there is a lot of work to do it is easy to absorb all your energy into studying, however, having a break and doing things you love is also very important for the mind. I would also like to develop risk-taking as this is what helps you push yourself over your limits in order to constantly improve, and not to remain in your comfort zone. Another important factor I would like to achieve is being a good communicator since I often like working on my own and don't always feel comfortable talking to others. This skill is very important, however, as working in a group can often help you achieve a lot more and learn new things. Furthermore, most jobs will require you to communicate with oth...

Creativity/Service- Wesoła District Design Workshop

Image
Oct-Feb The Wesola District is a piece of territory with several old hospital buildings which has been bought by the city. It has a design pharmacy in which artists and architects meet. However, it still has not been decided what the space will be used for as the buildings cannot be destroyed or changed. For now, the green area is used for various festivals and events. Hence, the aim of the workshop is to come up with ideas for what the district can be utilized for in the future. During the first meeting, we were taken on a tour of the district and asked to think of ideas for what the district could be utilized for, without removing what is already present. We also discussed the advances in technology that can be seen and how this knowledge can be used to design the space.  Approval questions I chose to participate in this project because I like creative thinking and I would like to help in designing the Wesola District into a meaningful place in the future.  This project make...

My classes are at Egurrola Dance Studio. We used to have 2 hours per week but now we just started having an extra hour on Fridays. I like it a lot as it's a fun way to stay in shape. Last year, me and my group went to a competition and got second place, this year we will likely attend more competitions. I think working as a group helps us all motivate and help each other but at times if I feel behind with a certain choreography I find it slightly stressful. A difficulty I noticed I have is that I keep my moves quite restricted when I should be always using my full body for every dance move, using as much energy as possible, so this is something I will be working to improve upon. Another goal I want to achieve is to become more 'smooth' when I d...
