Kaitlyn's Photo Blog

Adjustment : For the second semester I am going to continue working hard and spending class time wisely. I am going to try and take more unique photos that are better composed and have a more interesting contrast. I want to compose my images better when we do photoshop compositioning projects, so that way the end result looks more professional.

Tax dollars aren't wasted on art, music, or theater classes in high schools. Tax dollars are used wisely towards this great cause to educate students on the arts. Just because the arts aren't as formal or strict as other subjects, they aren't any less important. Art, music, and theater classes inspire students to be creative, think outside the box, and see the world in a different way. These things can't always be taught in traditional school classes or in training people to enter the workforce. Many people dis on art classes and the people who take them because they view art as a less important and more easy field compared to others. But without art, much history wouldn't exist, there would be less ways for people to express themselves, there wouldn't be decorations, and life would be less interesting. If we look back at the history of mankind, there is much information known of it due to art work of ancient peoples. From cave painting to hieroglyphics, thes
