Standards evidence: My artwork is original because It is a combination of a cardboard portrait with a lot of layering. My artwork expresses my identity because It shows I am a boy and It looks a little abstract which is how I like art. .
Artist Statement: My artwork is a face made out of cardboard. It is about 12 inches tall and 8 inches wide. The face looks like a boy with his tongue sticking out. I made my artwork by cutting everything out from a cardboard box, and then I glued it onto the face in layers. What inspired me was that we have a lot of cardboard boxes at my house from buying things online, and they don't get used anymore. My goals for this artwork was to use up some cardboard and to make a final artwork that I like and want to keep. My overall thoughts is that my artwork came out great, at first I was not sure if i should have painted it, but i think I made the right decision not to.

I chose to do the recycled material art project option 2a because I wanted to spray paint something. The materials that I used to create my art was a tissue box, bubble wrap, root beer bottle, smart water bottle, a red plastic cup, part of an egg carton, bag clip, travel soap bottle, plastic cashew container cover, and a broken key. My artwork is original because all of these objects are from my house. The biggest challenge that I had was fitting everything in the box. After spray painting the glass Root beer bottle, it looks plastic. Art can raise awareness for environmental issues because people can make amazing art from things that are being thrown away.
My plan for my artwork is to make a tree with some mountains in the background. I am limited to colored pencils and pencil for drawing materials. I considered doing an artwork about sports but I decided to do a tree artwork because I was not able to finish my tree landscape painting. My artwork is going good, so far I have drawn the tree in pencil and colored a little . Next I need to draw the horizon line and the mountains.
My artwork looks like my black nike basketball shoe in the middle near the top. And under the shoe is three orange basketballs. The background is red and black. My artwork is orange colored pencil, red and black watercolor, and drawing pencil. My artwork is about basketball because it is my favorite sport. My goal was to draw a good shoe. Overall, I like my artwork and it looks how I wanted it to look.
One artist I found that paints things about sports and famous athletes is Leroy Neiman. I had two ideas, the first was to draw a basketball three times, and the second idea was to draw a basketball shoe. Then I decided I would do both of them. Leroy Neiman's subject for most of his artworks is sports. I practiced with pen and ink which I have not used in an artwork before.
