SUBMIT A PROJECTI created my own clothing with techniques such as machine sewing, thrift flipping, and using patterns. I created five pieces of clothing.
These are screenshots of the venue we have built for an online prom. While not yet complete, these give a fairly good idea of the final product. The event itself is scheduled for May 15; between now and then, more screenshots will likely be added to that folder. The "Buildings" subfolder has not been updated recently, but the "Progress Shots" (screenshots taken over the course of the project from the same positions and give an idea of how construction has progressed) are being updated fairly regularly and reach back to day 1.
This painting of Claudette Colvin is a group project about people who didn't get credit for making history.

I wrote a paper about the history and evolution of human rights. It starts with the Magna Carta and goes until now. I chose to do this project for many reasons, mainly because I want to pursue a career in human rights in the future.
This slide presentation shows a timeline of my art process. Starting with the inspiration of my parents art, to the art I did before starting this project including realistic and anime styles. It then shows my beginning in exploration of realistic art, specifically in human face structures. The next slides show my work in my St.Kates PSEO drawing class and the work I did outside of class. The final piece was a way to bring in all I had learned. I took pictures around the Twin Cities at night with my friend Jiahong B. I took those pictures and edited them together to create a singular reference. To up the challenge I decided to paint the final on a 4x4 ft canvas. The final slide is the result shown. I used gouache and acrylic paint.
My project is a research project about Frida Kahlo. It's about her art,and her story - I find her so fascinating and I love her style. I find her very inspiring and creative.

I have been working on woodburning for a year and making this board for our Student of the Block display was a chance to try my skills on a bigger scale than I had done in the past. It is entirely wood burned and it took as many hours as a grade level project. I’m hopefully going to pain a boarder on some 2x4s to add a bit of color but that will be another project.
I made several projects in the shop. My best work this year was my treasure chest and the chessboard which I use for chess club.
How has clean water shaped the modern world? Few inventions have shaped the modern world as much as clean water. We rely on clean water for our daily lives. Yet, we rarely ask ourselves how clean water came to be? How did it change the very face of our world? Have we finally solved clean water? And what role has it played in the medical field? The goal of the project was to answer that.
I will get my pilots license, and give a presentation on the process.
There are lots of roads to take when relating to film making as a career. I explored different mediums of film I haven't tried. I also tried different writing styles ending with one final film as my deliverable. I worked with the concept of a unique view of things, making everything a story. I hope to see this be an example of my work to kick start my career in film. I want to find a path that suits me well and I get to make things I am proud of in the end. I want people to know the name "Keys".
I created a website that goes into why Sputnik 1 was so important, why it deserves more credit then we give it, and what it is.
