Throughout this term, I focused on the question: How do I create a business where I can sell my art on products? I have been wanting to create my own brand/online shop to sell my art on different types of merchandise. Such as shirts, posters, stickers, etc. Initially, this was a chance to create my online shop and sell my art consistently, but it turned out to be successful in the terms of creating all of the products and designs. During this time it was more of trying to get the materials that I needed and invest in them to sell/market. I started out with different design ideas that were a potential final draft as one of my designs for my products, while creating them at the same time I had to choose and kind of simplify my ideas as well. I used this time at school to make sure all of the designs I wanted were completed and polished, and I researched the best places to get them made into different types of products. I made connections, asked questions, and also investigated the different costs of each merchandise.

Even though I wasn’t able to learn more of the business and marketing aspect of creating a brand/business I was definitely able to get what I needed and invest time and work to start a business. At the end of this, I got my etsy page started, my instagram shop started, and created a promo video/photoshoot. By creating my promo video I was able to at least use that for advertisement and get a head on that. The same thing applies for my photoshoot. I was fortunate and lucky enough to have great models that volunteered to make my vision come to life, and model the shirts that I created. It was crazy to see it actually on others with different styles and faces wearing them. I am very excited and very lucky to have had this opportunity to grow myself as an individual and to also grow myself as an artist. I’m definitely going to continue this in my future, continue this next and learn how to really advertise, produce more, and hopefully create an official business/job for myself.
In this unit we were learning about ways we are able to decrease the use of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a toxic gas that pollutes the air and harms not only us but the planet. We were influenced by the author of Raising Elijah , Sandra Steingraber's three ideas. We decided to make our own ideas to help the environment become a much cleaner and safer place for you and me. An FE that we had which relates to our AP was having a guests come Krista Margroth from Nicro-gas to explain to us more about carbon dioxide and really get a fun hands-on experience. Overall, this was an amazing unit. I believe that it is important to figure out a way to help the Earth and try to keep it alive. We should protect the planet and make a change because if we keep living this way we are going to make the atmosphere a toxic and unsafe environment. We should stop using fossil fuels which cause carbon dioxide which pollutes the air. Making a change to help not just yoursel...
For this final term of STEAM for the year, we focused on how we are able to reconstruct the city. We dove into the deeper meaning of a better city, and what that exactly looks like. Throughout this unit, we had watched a series of TED Talks speaking upon the importance of community, architecture, and a number of other things that are necessary to create a successful city for the citizens who live in it. These TED Talks also spoke about the "laziness" and inequality that can be found in many cities, suburbs, and minority neighborhoods/areas. By watching and deeply understanding these TED Talks we decided to become designers ourselves! I was able to pick any area around the world where we were able to redesign and make changes in the space. I focused on where I live, and the changes that I would personally like to better the area as a whole. To conclude, this was a very interesting and creative action project. I was able to find the importance and meaning of what creat...
Hello and welcome to the final class of my senior year at GCE Lab School! This class is called Endurance, and it is all about enduring hardships and trials and how that exactly looks like. In this class, we have been focusing on what our life missions look like and how our lives will change after high school. Through this unit, we have been reading the book Night by Elie Wiesel. We dove into what both, physical and mental endurance looks like and means. While reading this book, we have been connecting it to our lives and how we are able to relate to it one way or another. For this action project, we were assigned the task to write an autobiography! We wrote our autobiographies as if we were fifty-five years old and looking back at everything that we have gone through. We had to include the mental and physical challenges that we have had to endure throughout our lives, which has made us the people that we are today. Here's my autobiography and I hope you enjoy it!
