Abigail Casimiro """Lonely Lotus"" The medium I used was air dry clay and acylic paints. This is just a sea goddess hoping when he lover will come. All stories aside, this clay figure can hold bracelets and earrings."
Dhiren Rampersaud This project is a needle felted sculpture. To make this artw,ork I had to poke the felt many times to make it stick together to make something 3D. The sculpture is supposed to resemble a beagle dog breed. My inspiration to make this project is my brother. My brother's favorite dog breed is a beagle, so this artwork is a homage to my brother.
Diana Garcia This is a clay sculpture of My Melody: A cute and popular character from the Hello Kitty franchise. Who wouldn't love a little bunny with a pink hoodie to be portrayed?
Dimari RodriguezI made this eye for the first friend Ive ever made. I made it out of the love I have for her and her lovely eyes. I made sure to check how my progress increased with the reality of the clay and her eye. I made sure I didn't miss how the eye shape and eye color were to make it realistic. I got my inspiration from her wisdom and motivation whenever I was working on any art work. I made this to show her how kindness can progress into receiving graditude.
Elias Torres "The Wonky Shiny Burger" represents my love for burgers. To me, it shows how fun, wonky, or even messy a Burger may get. It would still be lots of fun to enjoy or eat! I would love to make more sculptures just like this one to express my interest or love to things I enjoy.
Emily Salgado I needle-felted brobee from Yo Gabba Gabba which was my childhood TV show that I watched when I was 5. I took the opportunity to needle felt him into a real-life toy to bring back that inner child that I had in me when I was young!
Athena Gaines The purpose of my art pieces is to make them as weird and colourful as possible. The process was to search for some ideas. Sketch the art pieces. Get the materials that I need to make them. And finally, I use my hand strength to do twists, curls, and zig-zags, wrapped around with fuzzy pipes. This represents the feelings that I have on the inside. Just being happy and wild.
Maritza Valentin My artwork is a mini golf course based off of Keroppi from Hello Kitty. The idea behind it was to be a small frog pond.
Crystal Zamudio "Sculpture of Kaia the MoonWolf What I create is my original character named Kaia The MoonWolf out of clay. It was my first time using clay and it was a great experience to use a different kind of art besides drawing. What I use for this piece is clay, clay tools, baking sheet and paint."
Monserrat Sirangua The category of my art is 3D that I crocheted. My inspiration behind this work was the character Nana Osaki from the anime “Nana”. It was originally going to be a tote bag but after I noticed how big it was going to be I decided to make it a tapestry instead. It took me about 2 weeks to finish this project and about 8 balls of crochet thread to make.
Monserrat Sirangua The category of my art is 3D flowers that I crocheted. I made these flowers as a gift to my mom for her birthday. These flowers took me 2 days to finish. The message I wish this artwork would send is that you can show your love to someone with your time,patience,and effort.
Jari Guzman "This is a strawberry shortcake cake. This was inspired by my favorite show when I was little because of my favorite character from the ''Strawberry Shortcake cartoon.'' She was my favorite character, and I happen to also like strawberries and cake."
Jayvien Galeas I created the sculpture, based on Mimir from the God of War series, to captivate the very emotional character Mimir. Mimir is the decapitated head of the God of Knowledge from Scandinavian Mythos. The sculpture started as a ball of Air-dry clay, I would later add the beard, molding it to the main ball. After everything that I added, the last few steps were to add the horns and add the texture of the sculpture, and lastly the colors. Mimir is a beautiful character and a very well-written one at that, he is one of the few funnier side characters in such a bitter and unfriendly world, and I wanted to have a physical object that represents the well-beloved character and I'm glad it was made from my hands.
Jocelyn Barajas """Beauty is Everywhere"" My piece of art portrays that there are no borders when it comes to beauty. Beauty is everywhere, there are no flaws."

Jocelyn Olguin Ruby is made from wool that has been built by the circus master for its queen. It says that he made a face small on purpose, maybe he saw something or a prediction? The circus master gave Ruby to the queen, but then the king was jealous of her getting attention, but he had many mistresses. Soon the king's jealousy consumed him to the point that he started abusing his wife and mistresses the queen after many years had enough and tried to run away and leave him, but the king wanted her to stay. His vision turned red, he grabbed the near thing, and hit the queenside of the head. The red vision faded away, and the king dropped the heavy metal as saw the scene the sides of the queen's head were squished like a flat sword bleeding on the ground no longer breathing and that was the end for her. Nobody knew what fully happened to the queen after. It said that the circus master disappeared. The only thing left of the queen was the pink string wrapped in the bunny and her heart no longer beating.
Mia Rodgers I made this project using needle felting wool and needle felting techniques. I named her "Joan." She is a pink and blue snake with lots of style and pattern. My inspiration for this was actually from my own pet snakes. I have 6 snakes total at home, so I wanted to show my appreciation towards them with one of my favorite projects this year.
Michael Escobedo """Plankton"" Needle felting is like sculpting with wool! You use a special needle to poke and shape the wool fibers into different shapes and designs. I chose to create plankton because of his personality, and I also thought it was fun to create. I enjoyed doing this because it helped me experience new things in art that I never heard of before. "
Jocelyn Zarate My mini golf sculpture theme is Chicago. I used air-dry clay to sculpt the hot dog buns and the oscar mayer hot dog and used yellow glitter for the mustered, only mustired because as we know, ketchup does not belong on Chicago style hotdogs.
