My project is going good but there is one small problem that could be bad if i dont fix it. I lost three of the pictures i have drew so i have to find those pictures or it will be really bad. I am going to try and find them tonight though so it should be fine as long as i find them. But other than that everything is going good. I have like maybe five or six pictures done.

Some things that are good about my project are that it is coming along farely well. I have a few pictures done but I am planning on doing a few more this weekend. I am going to try and draw all of the MLB logos.

my project is going good. i already have multiple drawings done. i am going to try to do more. i am going to try and draw most of the MLB logos.

Creating a blog is weird and hard at the same time. i really dont know what to write but i know what to write now because my teacher made a suggestion about what to base my bog for the week on. This week she reccomended to write about the difficulties, successes and cool tips and tricks that i have found out about writing a blog. It is hard to think of things to write about because there isnt much to talk about.One tip i have is to not really think about what you are typing and just do it, this helps because it makes it to where you are not overthinking it. I would say the main difficulty obout blogging is having something to say that you havent said before. This is kind like the first tip i said but you have to just go with the flow and say what is on your mind. That is all the tricks that i have figured out.

Proposal: [Drawing]

Needs and Opportunities

Are you solving a problem for yourself or others? How will this project be a learning and growing experience? What is your goal? I am solving a problem for myself because I am learning how to draw, this will be a learning experience because I am learning to draw.

Audience / Clients / Users

Explain who will benefit from your project. Who is you audience – who might be interested in following your blog and learning about your project? Other people who want to learn about drawing.

Mentors

Who can help you with this project? Who will you need to contact and what will you ask them to commit to in helping you? My parents can help me draw and the art teacher at the school. I will need to ask them to help me.

Product

What is the actual product you will show this spring? This project may or may not be made of atoms or bits, but you must have something to show. I’m not interested seeing a bunch of great ideas at the end of the year. I want to see things. I will show pictures that I have drawn at school and at home.

Technology

You will have to use technology in some way on presentation day – think about how you can use the tools available to add life into your project and enhance what you are doing. (Video, laptops, apps, cell phones, music, etc.) I will use a laptop to look up images to draw.

Reality Check

I am looking for you to shoot for the moon here and do anything you can dream of, but even moonshots need budgets. What equipment are you going to need? What other capital expenditures do you anticipate, and how will you meet them? Pencils, colored pencil, and paper, and I might get my drawings laminated if they are good.

Possible Roadblocks

What other roadblocks can you predict – time, resources, motivation etc. Explain what you might do when you come to each roadblock to reach your goal. I probably will get mad and lose my motivation.

Conclusion

Wrap it up. Why are you fired up about this project? Inspire me to support you, and give me a great reason to approve your project. I used to love drawing and was really good at it but I stopped doing it.
