Welcome!

my collage! :)



Artist Statement

My name is Carly. I was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. I lived there for the first 7 years of my life. My family and I moved to Boise when I was in the second grade. In a few years I would like to have the chance to go to college to study photography and interior designer, or marine biology. My future plans are to travel around the world and take millions of pictures and to be well known around the US for my superior pictures. When I get married I would like my wedding to be the ultimate wedding. I want to have the greatest wedding because I think it would make the night even more special. My maid of honor will be my best friend for life, Bailey. I am looking forward to having a family and kids. When I buy a house I would like it to be right next to Bailey’s house, because I think it would be marvelous if my best friend lived right next door to me. In my lifetime, I never ever want to get divorced; I think that it is hard to have kids go through living in 2 houses and not having their parents together. When I am older I really hope that my husband and I make enough money to be able to go on family trips and to do many activities out side of school and work. Right now, as an 8th grader, when I’m not in school I play volleyball and hangout with my friends and family. My family inspires me most, because they have always helped me fulfill my dreams and have taught me many helpful lessons of life. So far the most important lesson I have learned is that my family is always going to be there for me, even when I’m at my worst. Friends are also very important to me because they can always boost my spirits and make me laugh even when I’m on the verge of crying my eyes out.

I chose to do a collage for this project because I love to take pictures of everything! In my opinion pictures can speak a thousand words. My name is filled out with words that I truly believe in, songs that I listen to non stop, quotes that I adore, and colors that I love. There are many pictures on it about what I like to do, who I like to be with, and who I am as a person. I am hoping that people will notice that I covered all of the space with pictures and that I took my time and did my best on it; also that I have had many enjoyable times with my family and friends. The message I hope people will understand is that I am a very creative and funny girl, that I care about many people and animals, and that I am very artistic. This piece shows that I love to have fun and work hard.

The Main point that I was trying to convey was that I am a people person, I love to be around animals, I have a lot of fun, and that I take pride in everything that I do. My biggest difficulty with this project was that it was a little difficult to cover all the space on the paper, but I overcame that by putting stickers and words on the “white space”. I know it represents my best work because I made it very neat and I put in many hours to make it look perfect. I am most proud of finding all these wonderful pictures that explain who I am. It is my favorite part of the piece because the pictures all show a different side of me and I think it is good to know that I don’t just have one personality; I have many. My second favorite part is my name. To me it shows and explains things that pictures cannot describe. If I had to do this project again I would change the glossiness of the pictures because the way that the light shines off of them makes it hard to see sometimes. Also I would make sure I had pictures of all my greatest moments instead of just some. This project would have been easier if I didn’t procrastinate until the last week to get it done, but in the end my collage turned out pretty great!
