Reverse value is when you have an object on a white or black background and the object is the opposite color of the background. The details on the object are the same color as the background. It's REALLY confusing! The tools I used were ink, fountain pens, pencil, eraser, light table, paint, paintbrushes, and Copic Multiliner Pens. I drew a gymnastics trophy, a donut, a water bottle, my SAS card and a drivers license from a Disneyland ride (Autopia), my wallet, money, scissors, my phone, my headphones, my hand, and a softball. The most challenging part of this assignment was figuring out what to make black and what to make white. Once you figured that out, for white, you had to re-outline things and you had to do a lot of small, fine, details. https://lmpta.wordpress.com/art-docent-program/5th-grade-projects/lines-create-illusions-op-art/ I like this optical illusion art because this person also used a bit of reversed value to make this look like a room.

This is important because I didn’t think that my family would have any connections with poverty, and it is relevant because I learned new things about poverty, and I know how my grandpa escaped poverty. I’m now inspired to learn more about him because then I will understand so much more and this wil...

1. My snack was very healthy because there was protein, and it was high in vitamin c. It was made of greek yogurt, granola, strawberries, blueberries, and bananas. There were many more good things on the calorie counter than there were bad things. The only bad thing there was, was that there was too much sugar. This isn't added sugar, but it is sugar from the fruits, so the sugar is healthy. 2. I don't think that much about if my snack is health because when I do gymnastics, I burn a lot of that fat off. I now realize that burning it off doesn't mean I got rid of it. My goal is to start eating healthier. 3. I think food is meant to be eaten with other people because then you can share how much like or dislike the food. Some effects of eating and socializing is that sometimes you forget about you manners. You may talk with your mouth full or just be rude. 4. I enjoyed preparing my food because I did some of it with my friends and some of it with my mom. I think if you put...
