Farewell DMA

As the end of senior year approaches, I want to reflect on my time spent in DMA. Digital Media Arts has truly become my outlet for creativity over the last few years. I have learned so much about myself through my art. It has grown so much since freshman year, when I took Intro, barely knowing how to use Photoshop.  DMA has allowed for a number of opportunities throughout high school, including getting to attend BPA Nationals in Anaheim, California and placing among the top ten in the nation with my teammates, having my artwork displayed at the Taft Museum, Art Academy of Cincinnati, and the senior art show, and having the opportunity to earn many awards. In DMA, I have learned important skills that are vital in my future, made new friendships, and came to terms with my creativity.
For those of you entering APDMA, I wanted to take a second and give you some advice.  DMA is what you make of it. Allow yourself to have fun being creative. As you begin to make pieces, you will find that your artwork has a voice of its own. It is inevitable that you will experience creative block- we all do- but don't let that get you down. Spend time making your pieces reflect who you are. Explore creative methods and take every opportunity to grow as an artist. 
This fall, I will be attending the University of Cincinnati. I plan on studying business at the Lindner College of Business in the Circle of Excellence Program. I do plan on continuing to create art as a hobby. Thank you to all who have made my time in DMA enjoyable!!

Last Blog Post

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

IMPRESSED BUT YOU CAN DO MORE Apple......

FOR THE UNINFORMED: Mrs. Shields may kill me for how long this post to the blog is, but she can deal with it :P Alright... I just want to state that I love Apple to death and get that out of the way but I AM GOING TO RANT for a little. Apple introduced the new "iPad Air" to the world today, among other things. The starting price for a 16GB silver OR black iPad Air is $499, and if you want 8x the storage with the 128GB version, it'll set you back $799. To put that into perspective, if you were to buy a 2.3GHz Mac Mini that has a quad core Intel Core i7 (the fastest processor Intel makes, starting at the i3, i5, and then the i7), 4GB of DDR3 ram, and a 1TB hard drive, it'll set you back $799. So you can buy a pretty very good Mac computer (I have one at home but better haha) or a new iPad. Anyways....  The iPad Air weights only A pound (yes one pound), is only 7.5 millimeters thick (Apple advertises that by saying 7.5 millimeters THIN), has a 9.7...

Bye For Now DMA

      Well since I'm a senior, then this is probably going to be my last blog post. Next year, I am going to do the Digital Design program at the Warren County Career Center for college credit, so I'm still going to do some DMA stuff after graduation. It's been very cool to be making cool stuff here and I'll miss you guys and I know your going to miss me and my dog Max.
