Reflection - Pepi

During this project, there were a lot of bumps in the road but it smoothly paved out towards the end. I learned a lot of things during this project and one of the main things was being able to spray paint. During our process, we used spray paint a lot because Beth liked the rainbow because it really spoke out to her and gave her a good feeling and hope. I had spraypainted with many different colors and mixing and dotting with this spray paint it turned out to be a beautiful design. It was very difficult at first because I had no idea what to do and what the safety precautions were but with a little help from some of my friends I got the hang of it.

 The second most important thing was time management which was the most difficult because of school visits and classes I and Jimmy had together. But Mrs. Vulgaris was a huge help and I don't know what I would have done without her. But overall I understand time management a lot better and this will also help me in the next school I go to.

My biggest takeaway is definitely on how to work in groups and how to manage your time with your partner's. This was the hardest thing for me because Jimmy and I didn't have too many classes together. So that meant we had to make schedules on what to do for the days. Also, we had school visits which did not help either. 

Even though this process was really hard the feedback that we got was amazing. The mid review changed our whole project which I wasn't fully on but when I saw the beauty in this project I knew it was the way to go. Mrs. Vulgaris helped me during the second half of the project a lot with the presentation and some of the prototypes. Also, Mr. Minehart helped a lot with the artistic statement and historical context. Without this feedback from teachers, I don't know what I would have done.
