Carter Hagedorn
Da Vinci 3D Visual Arts Capstone
My name is Carter, I am 14 years old and I go to Da vinci arts Middle school in portland oregon. I was born in oregon and all my life I have spent enjoying the beauties of nature and the outdoors. My favorite color is that average and well known color, blue. I play soccer, and bike to school in the fall and spring. I like to play video games as well as hang out with my friends. I am going to go to Benson polytechnic high school in the fall which I am really looking forward to. My capstone this year was in 3D art. I was first interested in 3D art when I was in sixth grade. I wasn’t very fond of the other art forms at the time like Dance, and Drama. I like to think of myself as an introvert, I have a hard working personality and I like to get things done.
My capstone theme this year is Living Things. Most of my pieces are made out of clay and paint because I found it took less time to make my pieces painted. It took me a little while to find my theme but once I did i made lots of progress. At the beginning of the year I worked a lot of group projects with my friends but later I found my theme. I would say my favorite piece in my show is probably the teeth I made out of clay, underglaze, and paint. I really enjoyed making every piece. I hope you enjoyed my show.
