//Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.// -Pablo Picasso **Artist Statement:** Time is universal. Time has evolved people, and people have adanced along with time pieces such as from the sundial to the modern stop watch. Time is what brings us together throughut the world. Even though different time zones separate us we are going through time secod by second, minute by minute. The clocks that are shown have shown aged clocks that are not used much anymore, images 5, 6, and 8; clocks that are either from most people's childhood or something that is recognized by many, images 1, 2, 9, and 10; and clocks that are either are changed to make them not the typical clock, images 4 and 11. Also, some normal clocks are added in the different way like in images 7 and 12. The clocks in the concentration have shown the evolution of clocks and the growth of knowledge of people through the advancement in technology. Also, throughout the world people have used some of these clocks as the have advanced as well. In images 5, 8, 9, and 12, I have dealt with light and dark as well as shade. In images 3, 7, 10, and 11, I have dealt with line quality and movement. I have dealt with rendering of forms in images 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 mostly. The compostion seems to be most telling in images 1, 8, 9, 10, and 12. The illusion of depth and surface manipulation is in images 1, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, and 12. ======

Future AP kiddos:

I sat the AP 2D Design Portfolio for the 2009-2010 school year as a junior. It was really difficult since I usually work slowly, so the first bit of advice is do not spend too much time on your pieces especially at the beginning. Second bit of advice would definitely remember, especially at the beginning of the year, that you do have 24 pieces to do. I would definitely say do not get behind. I would also suggest trying new things. I tried many new medias and styles and have grown as an artist.

I have witnessed many others drop out of AP for many reasons but I would not suggest this. It, at the end, when it’s all done, it is a very fulfilling experience. It is so nice to feel accomplished.

The most important piece of advice I want to give you is enjoy the experience, take the criticism and use it, grow, become better, & laugh. Make all the times the best!
