Funny/Artistic

by

Hannah Van Arsdale


My theme is funny and artistic. To show this, I am using acrylic paints and a cat fixed on to my button. I want my box to be fun and interesting, also adding something quirky. I am going to paint my box so it will look like a starry nighttime landscape, and I’ll also add eleven lights in various places, in place of a painted star. All the lights are connected in a circuit, turned on with a switch. The button is connected with the lights on a different circuit. For example, the button is external, connected in a circuit to all eleven lights, which is connected to a battery. This battery then links back to the button, creating one full circuit. I love art, so I used acrylic paints to show that. I also like how you can control something so small as a light bulb, so I included eleven instead of the minimum of five. I also wanted to have my box look sleek and precise, so I painted most of it black. I chose a cat to put on my button because it comes from one of my favorite stores and I've had it for a long time. I used acryllic paints because that is the medium I usually use in art, and in my middle school we did many projects using these paints, so it has sentimental value. My box includes a few components that show how I am funny and artistic in a simple way.
