For my product design project I decided to create a chair that provides heating and cooling so you can sit outside in the cold winter and hot summer. I came up with this idea by sitting on a chair and feeling a breeze that chilled me and then my brain got thinking. I liked that my design was simple and original.
My Narrative: Within the next 100 years the sun will have melted away all the planets in the universe. The smart scientists on the Earth before will have enough time to make air conditioned suits and sun protection glasses to protect ourselves from the heat and brightness from the sun. With these technology advancements, we will take space ships up to the sun and start our life over again by living on the sun.
I learned a lot from Doug Reynolds and the video we watched in class. From the video I learned that your thighs should be level with or just above the potter's wheel. I also learned that it is easier to to work if you have all of your supplies in a U-shape in front of you. One more thing I learned was your arm that is on the side of the clay should be lined up with the center of the clay so you can apply the right amount of force and not hurt your wrist. Some things I learned about Doug Reynolds was how he makes different types of pottery like a pot, a plate, and a bowl. I also learned that Doug Reynolds lives around Waverly. One other thing I learned about Doug Reynolds is he does most of his work on a potter's wheel but can also do it other ways.
Click on photo to go to the website to see other photos and a couple of videos. This is my art logo. This represents me because the "T" is for my first name which is Trey and the halo above it is for my last name which is Angel. So if you put it together it is Trey Angel and that's me!!!
I learned a lot form my artist research. One thing I learned was Claude Monet was part of the Impressionist art movement and he was one of the founders. I enjoyed all of Claude Monet's artwork. I like it so much because it has great detail and color that looks very good. I am most proud of my presentation and thought I did a good job presenting because everybody in the class learned about Claude Monet when I presented. |
