Capchange:
None (1) · Although capstone did take an unexpected turn, it wasn't difficult to adjust to the new changes. (1) · At first my project revolved around wire-wrapping and jewelry in general, and then I realized I enjoy making earrings more.

I also added propmaking because cosplay is something I love doing, and I love designing different aspects of characters that I can make myself. A lot of the projects I had planned had to be cut simply because I di (1) · I was originally going to talk more about how it affects us in modern day but it's not as interesting as the history and fire sadly isn't used that much in the daily lives of modern people. (1) · It felt like I had to completely change my project. I had to downsize everything and almost start over. I lost the capability to set up the system how I had originally designed it. In order for the new system to work I had to completely change the way that the water was going to flow to the plants. (1) · My first idea was scrapped because I found that I didn’t have a passion for any practical job and couldn’t be happy with settling for an office job.

They would be in order from freshman year to my senior y (1) · The game project would have needed more time for us to fully learn Unity and C#, so we were forced to switch to building a computer. This project was still at least in the field of computer science so it still applied to what I will go on to study in college. (1) · The project name was going to be Animal Health including other animals as well but I couldn't include them unfortunately due to having to move. (1) · Things did go as planned when I moved to doing art work. I was doing the Children's museum and then I changed it to art because I know more about art.

(1) · Things didn't go exactly as planned, of course as stated many times it's not the most polished thing in the world but I feel like I could have maybe added more. (1) · Things went as planned, and I ended up doing way more than I thought. I imagined this project being way smaller, but then again it is only the beginning of this project too. (1) · Unfortunately my idea for the etchings went out the window as the trip was postponed. Also, etching is a difficult type of printmaking that requires the copper plate to be dipped in acid.

My plan was to perform while selling my art work. We saw this coming, too. (1) · Yes Things went as planned and no nothing was adjusted. (1)

It was a struggle and a half to completely spin and start (1) · I had a good time painting and making the project. (1) · I knew the information I was providing beforehand, but I learned quite a lot through the process of trying to share that knowledge with others. creating a talk that has a lot of information in it was proven counterproductive as people may get more confused or less drawn toward the subject. It was a (1) · I learned a lot about myself. I also learned a lot of new art mediums and started looking at it with an even broader perspective. This year I learned a lot, and with learning changes your perspective of things... It makes you better! (1) · I learned I actually really enjoy color film and I think I'll be using it a lot more often now. (1) · I learned that it takes time and focus. (1) · I learned that not all dog breeds are the same with sicknesses or even injuries, I also learned how to sanitize properly and safely for animals.

(1) · I learned that you shouldn't be afraid to put yourself out there. My takeaway is that this project is very important to me. (1) · I learned to stay true to my style and trust the process.

(1) · I reflected over the numerous art mediums that I wouldn't have tried if I hadn't gone to TSAS. (1) · I was overworking myself and took on too big of a workload. (1) · I wouldn't say I have any takeaways from the capstone itself, but I do think it served as a catalyst to hone in on my photography. (1) · I've realized I wasn’t happy with living a practical life. I’m not sure if I will go into animation but it’s my #1 option right now. It has the perfect balance of something I like to do and something that is difficult. (1) · I, weirdly enough, learned something about confidence, which I just wasn't expecting considering this is a project about creating jewelry. I felt pride in something I had created and I got excited to show people it. It's been a minute! I absolutely loved learning a new skill and using my hands. (1) · I’ve learned that one idea takes you to another, and becomes bigger than you were even planning on making it. (1) · It’s one of the coolest things when you type all the code out and it works perfectly on the website (1) · Like everything in the world right now, life is unpredictable. Things don't go as planned and that’s very true with art as well. Learning how to adapt to how life is currently and finishing out my senior year has had it difficulties, but like with anything you can’t give up and quit. Printmaking (1) · Our generation sadly cares more about passing than learning, though I don’t know who’s fault it is. (1) · Resin is way more finicky than I ever imagined. It's also not safe to touch without gloves. That was a good scare. Also, fur fabrics are the bane of my existence, but they're worth using because they cover up seam mistakes (also if you use the right ones, they're such a nice texture!). I also lear (1) · That art work has been going on for a while and art can change your view of it (1) · This project made me wonder how many more systems that are in place have major issues such as this one and how can we fix them to better those systems so that they continue to work for us not against us. (1) · Well I learned how to embroider, and a bunch of other little skills like that. I also have been able to explore subcultures that I enjoy through fashion, and making mainly jewelry based off of them. It, over all, was a really fun project and I got to know myself better through it. (1) · While going to the Tulsa Tech for this capstone, I've learned many different things. Sure there was the initial cyber security, but I've also learned small bits of networking, and operating systems.
