"We created our art with paint and collage and pencil. We started combining our ideas together until we got the idea of fish playing soccer. James idea was Soccer and my idea was a fish. (Big idea) I got mine by having a pet fish and James likes playing soccer and he has lots of fish too. (The big idea) One of our goals was to off centre the ball and it worked well. We made the ball shoot at the goal to make it more entertaining. The 2nd goal of ours was our background. We had this goal because at first, we didn’t know what to put for our background, so we decided to make it colourful, so people will get more intrigued and wants to come and look at it. My overall thoughts for the project is that it looked very cool. Also, it was really intriguing like I want to look at it all times. I really like the colour of the background. The fish was one of them because I think it really makes people say what they’re doing and makes people want to come to see what's going on. "

"My Artwork looks like one cat was hungry and the cat saw the hot dog and the cat try to eat, but that time cat’s owner call cat so hot dog saved and cat look so sad. My artwork title is ‘Animals also like to eat Hotdog’. I got my artwork idea from youtube because I saw some video, that video was cat and dog fighting because of hot dog. When I created this artwork I learn some different types of paint. Some types of paints need to a little bit of water, but some types of water don’t need water so I learn what type of paint I need to paint in my artwork, so next time I want to use what I learn. The final piece was what I imagined at the second time, because for the first time I was thinking just paint, but the second time I thinking about put paper, and put some stickers and use mark making."

My piece is supposed to be a taco popping (literally) off the more dull background which was designed to be dark and then have a small beam of light shining down on the taco. The media I used was collage and acrylic paint. A lot of people are starting to make pieces that cover big topics like climate change, but I decided to make a piece meant to make people laugh. Most of my goals to create fun effects were met and overall I’m really proud of what I’ve done.

"Elephant Truth We incorporated collage, stickers, and painting. We created our artwork from the trip where we learned about elephants. The emotion in the art is in the elephants because elephants are made afraid of people so that they will listen to the people, and mother elephants are stabbed and tortured for a long time until the child doesn’t recognise the mother anymore.

My artwork was to have people in awe as they look at my independent project. I used vibrant colours and dark and kind of light colours to make the galaxy as the background and used pink, blue, and yellow for the S to make people like the artwork. My big idea behind the artwork was to show people that someday in the future maybe parts of earth will come out of the atmosphere and will float around in space. My goals for my project was to make it look really cool and finish it. My thoughts are that I want to maybe do another one of these types of projects except have it be a different letter, a different background, and different colours.

Our artwork is a painting of the earth in one corner, with a collage of plastic all around it. It has bottle caps of different sizes glued onto the earth, representing cities that are polluting the earth. We started by outlining where the earth would go, and then we painted. But most of the time we were coming up with ideas as we went along. The big idea of the artwork was to raise awareness that our actions really do have consequences. Our goals were to have a lot of information and some articles about the plastic problem. But we soon realised that we were out of time, so we decided to just do a piece with some facts and an overwhelming amount of plastic. It wasn’t what we were imagining at the start, but we are still very happy with the final results.

"My artwork looks like one dinosaur sleeps in the ocean. On the dinosaur nose, one person is standing. High money in the hands of people! My subject matter is dinosaurs. My title is “ Dozing Dinosaur “. My media is because what you lose is money. I’m not sure, but I think I use tools. I’m sorry, I don’t know who inspired. No, I just use creatures and money things. I did a laughing story. I want to make everyone interesting. Yes, because Ms. Meisner is laughing. I’m so happy Ms. Meisner is happy. I just learn I want to try a more interesting story. I hope so. Because do you know what? I'm so good drawing. I think more good drawing master. I hope everyone coming. And I hope everyone says 'You’re very good at drawing'. Just it. I’m so glad,"

"Our project is a figure holding the moon which shows scale, and that humanity is stronger than you know. We made the galaxy in the back to show entertainment. When we finished the moon, galaxy, and the figure we thought we were finished, but then Moliah came up with the idea that we could add glitter. Adding glitter I used one toothpick, glue, and silver glitter. Our goal for this art project was at first Olaf, but then we found out that we couldn’t have a character that we already knew, so we came up with this. I really like the art project that we made, and we really like the galaxy."

"Our artwork looks like a face with its face split in half, so that half of the face could represent sadness, and the other half could represent love. The sad side has a blue upside down heart as the eye, and the love side has a pink heart as the eye. We used paint brushes, acrylic paint ,large paper, a palette, sponges, and a water holder container. Our artwork uses color to show emotion. We were inspired from moody days to use the tint paint project. Pink to red is love, and light to dark blue is sadness. Our goal as artists was to express emotion through art and hope that anyone who sees it will understand what we were trying to show. We learned that art can show emotions with colors. This piece will influence our future artwork because we will use color to express ourselves. "

"My artwork is a picture of phone dropping into a toilet. The title of my artwork is 'A Bad Day', I’m showing a situation that might happen with anyone and this situation is bad. Whoever faces this situation will have a bad day. The way that I create my art is by using collage and acrylic paint. My artwork expresses a feeling of losing something forever. Since a phone is dropping into the toilet it would be hard to get it out and it would be soaked in water and the phone won’t work anymore. My goals as an artist is to try to use every different kind of material in my artwork. Sadly, I only used a paintbrush. I think I did well in this artwork and I think I did very well with the Acrylic paint. "

"My artwork was like different structures like faces. I created my art by what I learned in moody days and use it in my final project. The big idea is to let people know about moody faces and how they are different. My goals are to make it like collage faces and to make it clear that it’s happy sad or etc. I think I can do better, like can I make and stick more college or make it more interesting to see."

Our artwork is is based on a day at a race, in a swimmers life (Thai Nationals). We used our imagination and experience as an inspiration for our work. We tried to use colors to express our emotions during each phase of the race. We used collage and acrylic paint to color each column of our work. The big idea behind our work is to inform people about how swimmers feel during a race day. Each color represents each emotion. Red is for intense, blue is for confidence, green is for hope (even though you can’t really see it), and yellow is for happiness and joy. Our goals were to inform the audience about how swimmers feel before we swim and after we swim.

"My artwork is based on something I have experienced. In this piece a girl is standing in clouds and there are words falling out of the sky to express what she felt. There are more clouds on the left, and there is red paint splashed all over the page to represent blood. The background is gradient (blue to black). I used a sponge to blend in the background and make it look soft. I used acrylic paint and paintbrushes with different sizes. I got all the words from magazines and cut them with scissors. I was feeling sad and lonely that day, and so I got my idea from what I felt. I tried to express sadness and loneliness. I was trying to let people be aware of what they say and about mental health. When I was creating this artwork I learned how to play with texture using paint and different paint brushes. This final piece was nothing like I expected, the setting was supposed to be at school. This piece will definitely influence my future art works. "

"The reason why we chose this is that both me and Adina like soccer so we thought this would be a cool project, so the first thing that we started with was the sky and the grass. For the sky we use sponges and we blended dark blue and light blue together. Then for their grass, we use paintbrushes and we just went back and forth back and forth and we made different colours of green every single time we did it. For the crowd we use black paint and we just did a circle and then two lines and repeated that over and over until we got a crowd and then for the goal we started off not making it right and so we redid it and redid it and redid it until it was good. The most challenging part for us was the goal because we had to redo it so many times. Malaya and Adina"
