The First Senior Presentation I At The Beginning Of The Night

As a diverse student, in a very low income community I have always been known to standing up for others, as well as for myself. Having this natural drive i found myself taking a huge role in our high school Beta Club. As a natural leader, I was challenged with the opportunity to represent our high school’s Beta Club Chapter while running for North Carolina Beta Secretary. Although I felt experienced as a leader, I was really nervous to get up in front of all of North Carolina and give a speech at the Beta Club convention. Although I was nervous, I opened my mouth, and the words just began to come out. My fears went away, and I addressed everyone on topics of educational improvements and opportunities for all students to succeed. I used this

While art does have its advantages, it will not solve everyone’s problems. It is true that not everyone enjoys the thrill of creating a beautiful masterpiece because they might have been forced to take that class. However, those who love these classes show that there is a relationship between creativity and

National Junior Honor Society is a great opportunity for students to show their leadership and collaborative skills. I would like to serve as secretary in the 2016-2017 school year because I am dedicated to what I do, and I enjoy being involved in school and helping others. I believe I can take on the responsibilities that come with the job and am qualified to serve because I am dependable and curious. My curiosity leads me to ask questions, which will allow me to know as much as possible about the meeting and the meeting procedures. I am also organized and neat, which enables me to make sure everything and everyone is present at the meetings and to also be aware of the calendar and the growth of the committees.

I have been the president of my school’s Junior Civitian club for 2 years now and I was color guard caption for two years also. I have learned how to become a leader. I also went to Girl State where I learned how to become a better leader. Becoming a leader is challenging, especially in high school, when you want to do what everyone else is doing. I have learned that being a leader you should be fair and treat people as if they are your peers and not lower than you are. As a leader I am the first person their and the last person to leave. I also have made myself available to the people in Junior Civitan and the people on the color guard team. I also have an ambitious attitude, as should ever leader. I will always try to keep everyone cheerful

“For many years I taught art to reluctant students who never appreciated the detail required to communicate meaning behind the subject. You, however, seem able to do this.”

It was my freshman year of high school when I took Drawing A; I quickly learned that I had a skill that I had previously ignored and began embracing it. Sophomore year, though, was when I truly started using my art. It was during this year that I received a 4 on my AP-Studio Art portfolio, and won four awards at Scholastic Art and Writing in photography. Art gave me a feeling of accomplishment that I didn’t usually get in the rest of my academics, so I always tried my

However, our trip did not last countless hours as I looked over 30 paintings in about twenty five minutes. This was not due to my lack of interest, but more to my novice mindset towards art. Art is similar to most skill activities in that people that are active in said activity can better understand and articulate the small actions that lead to a great piece of art, a great football play, or a great movie. I am embarrassed to say that I did not pay close enough attention to the intricacies of my dad's art, but I accepted to write these articles in hopes I could learn more about my dad's favorite past time.

Cliché is often used as a pejorative term. Sometimes clichés can be the way a major breakthrough of understanding can occur. As I embark into the world of art, this cliché was a good thing. It was positive because as I studied paintings for the first time. I realized that as I was the beholder and the observer of the painting, I was responsible for making the effort of finding the beauty beyond a simple statement. The purpose of assignment was to observe and take note on pieces of art at a prominent museum. I was fortunate enough to visit the Museum of Modern art in New York City and I hoped to critique very famous paintings like Pollock 's drip paintings and The Persistence of Memory. However, it was a Saturday afternoon in the middle of July in New York City. I wasn 't afforded the luxury of being able to observe famous paintings such as those without a large crowd forming around it. In order to complete my assignment I went to the Getty. I found that finding a painting to study was harder than it seemed. I made a return trip to the Getty after brushing up on Art and Physics. The Getty is home to a variety of artwork dating as far back as the 1300s. I focused on art that was featured in different galleries of the museum including Italian Renaissance era and early Christian work. The paintings that I finally decided to write about were The Portal of Rouen Cathedral in Morning

Otherwise, there seemed to be no significant or obvious distinction amongst members. The attitudinal makeup of the audience was either neutral or positive, as Davis and his work are most known for being lighthearted and joyful. Mr. Davis undoubtedly considered these elements when he planned his lecture, as a large portion of it was centered around the nostalgic feeling the Garfield comics give to the crowd (C3). Regarding the introduction used during the lecture, I felt that it was more than effective in its explanation of Davis by showing what he is primarily known for, what the audience was about to witness, and by creating a favorable atmosphere for the lecture. To gain the audience’s attention, a video demonstrating Mr. Davis’s history and accomplishments was played before he began his lecture. Overall, I thought that it was a moderately effective introduction because it reinforced the interest of the audience, displayed the significance Davis has to the illustration business, and presented his credibility as well-known illustrator. For example, I thought it was interesting that the administrator jokingly announced Davis as a man too important to be talking a public lecture. On the other hand, however, I also thought that the introduction was somewhat ineffective in that it never overviewed what was going to be talked about in the rest of the lecture (C4).

Before observation, I never considered in depth how different art and theatre students could be. It makes sense for these two types of artists to have different characteristics; first and foremost each expresses their creativity in a different way. Despite that we are similar enough to be learning and working alongside each other in the same building, even outside of the collegiate atmosphere. Although the theatre students are similar to the other visual artists in many ways, I noticed some distinct

On Monday, I gave my special occasion speech. I would have to say that I was most nervous for this speech and really I don’t know why. The topic I believe was a little harder because you did not have as strict of an outline that you could speak on. We could really pick any topic that had to do with a special occasion. I know for me it took a lot of thinking to decide which one I wanted to do and the one I did choose still felt awkward. Having such broad speech choice also made it hard for many people in the class including me to make the time requirement. I would say that the time was my largest fault for this speech. Some of the other problems that I had during my speech was that I did not go into a great deal of detail on the husband and not going into much fun detail on anything else. I left most the speech pretty broad in the way that I only really told one story. If I were to do the speech again I would come up with much more to say about each person and why they are so perfect for each other.

As a learning artist, I always search for others who share the idea that art is more than what lies on a picture plane. One artist, in particular, has drawn my attention since I was young and he is a self-taught artist named Guy Dennings. While taking the hearts of thousands of others with his various media that range from pastel on newsprint to Conte crayon on paper; he has also captured my imagination with these emotional creations.

Have you ever done a project that makes you really go out of your comfort zone? Not only that but did you also forget to prepare for it? I have. Now let me start of by saying that I use to be terrible at giving speeches or presentations in front of people, mainly because it brought me out of my comfort zone. Which would explain why I was terrible at preparing for them, because I did not like to practice in front of others. So when I was given an assignment my Sophomore year of high school that required a presentation, I became somewhat uneasy. The assignment was called CSP. I do not remember what the CSP stood for or why we had to do the project. All I can remember is that you had to give a presentation after you finished the assignment discussing what happened and how you saw God in the assignment to the class. I can still remember when I had to give my presentation to the class.
