COMMUNITY

By Jane Vernon, 7thGradeBy: Cameron MacLeod, 7thGradeMy artistic intention was to show how things will avoid earth as of right now. The purple streak is just going right around Earth. Another intention was social distancing. We can see this in my drawing. The streak is keeping at least six feet of distance between them. Because so many people have the Corona-virus, we should continue to wash our hands and keep six feet of distance from others.

NATURE

I took this photo while on a walk inthe Presidio. My intention was justto take a nice photo of the purplelupin. My family and I were walkingand we found it very beautiful.There is no editing, but I focusedon the flowers in the front rather that the background. I really enjoythis photo, but think the flowersare prettier in real life.Looking UpSea of PurpleI took this photo across thestreet from my house, in theGreenbelt. My intention forthis photo was to get anotherview of nature. This photo wastaken as the sun was setting,and you can see the differentshadows in the tree. I thinkthat this photo gives you adifferent perspective in life,and shows you to look atthings a little differentlysometimes. Photos ByMaggie Strain, 7th Grade

I call this one "Cotton Candy Sky" formany reasons. The main reason is thatsome of the clouds in the photo look likepink and blue cotton candy. I took thisphoto from the house. I thought the skywas pretty so I took a quick photo. There isno editing or adjustments done. Myintention was just to capture the prettysky. Sunset SilouetteCotton Candy SkyMy Intention for this photo wasoriginally to take a nice picturefor my sister. I took this whentrying to figure out where to takeher photo. I found this photo cooland I thought it had cool layers. Idid not edit this photo. It looksgood in its original state. Photos ByMaggie Strain, 7th Grade

Cloudy SkiesThe Lonely TreeUnder the ArchMy intention for this photograph was tocontrast the clear blue sky, with the beautifulcolors and shapes of the clouds. I also wantedto capture the shadows that the clouds castupon the mountains. I liked how the cloudcolors varied because it made for a very prettyscene. The mountain in the background iscalled MountTamalpais. I think it is interestingthat this mountain is so tall that in the picture itlooks like is touching the clouds. I took thisphoto from my deck.My intention for this photograph was to capture theentire tree. I wanted to get the dark shadow thatdevelops on the ground. The shadow that appearson the ground is of the tree branches. The skybehind the tree is very vibrant and helps to balanceout the photo. When I was taking thispictureI madesure to get a good angle so I could see the sunnyand shady parts of the tree. You can see that theleaves in front of the tree are a lot lighter than theleaves in back. The amount of sun exposure the treeleaves receive depends on the position of the sun. Itook this photo from right across my house.Photos BySierra Murphy , 7th GradeMy artistic intention for this photo was tocapture the different colored leaves. I lovehow some look yellow, but others lookgreen. I sat on the floor while taking thisphoto so I could get the below view. Fromthe angle I was at, the sun was reflecting theleaves. As you can see in the picture, theleaves at the top of the arch are brighter. Itook this photo under an arch in front ofmyneighborshouse.

My artistic intention for this drawing was tomake me feel outside. I’m going a little stircrazyright now, so I wanted to draw somethingoutside. I decided on an empty beach becausewhat is better than a private beach with warmwater. I feel that everyone is going stir crazy, soit might be nice for people to see the “Beach”.I’ve never really been a big fan of the beach, butit’s very calming, so that’s why I did it.Cameron MacLeod, 7thGradeAva Sorenson, 7thGrade

Like my many peers this wasfor our class project and it was anidea that sparked my mind. It tellsa fun and exciting story withoutmany words. It’s just up to yourimagination.This photo is of a beautiful viewand bird. I chose this photobecause it looks very relaxingand calm. The bird is veryunique and makes me feelhappy. The setting reminds meof summer and doing thethings I love with the people Iam missing right now.This photo was from a walk around myneighborhood with my family. This photomade me feel happy because with all thebad things happening in the world somepeople are out there trying to put smilesonpeoplesfaces. My artist intention was tobring happiness to people faces just likehow I felt when I first saw it. I like how thevibrant color of the smiley face stuck out ofthe gray rocks. The smiley face rock isrepresenting me and the people trying tomake the most of quarantine; and theother rocks are representing all the bad inthe world but how I’m not letting it get tome. I like how the person out there put itunder the tree so that it was in theshadows but little pieces of light could peekthrough the trees leaves. Overall, thispicture made me realize that even thoughthere’s so many things happening right nowwe have to always keep a smile on her faceis because we know it will get better.Caterina Ballerini, 7th Grade Brooke Latch, 7th GradeSophie Daters, 7th GradeLily Eugster, 7th GradeThis photo is from a walk I took with my sister. This made me feel veryjoyful because this is outside, and it was fun to bond with my family.This photo inspires me to go outside even in this hard time. My artisticintention was to show how the grass and my feet looked so healthyeven though the world isn't doing well. I loved the contrast from thegrass to the grey sky and my black leggings. It was cool to see part ofthe photo bright and upbeat and the other half dark. I loved how thebackground was blurred because there was a sense of unknown.

My artistic intention in this photo wasto capture the silhouette of the trees.I wanted the sunset to be in thebackground and to emphasize the talltrees. I like how the trees are onecolor, black, and the sunset is warmpink and yellow. I also wanted tocapture the bright blue sky to framethe trees. I took this photo at OceanBeach, and I wanted to show thefeeling of calmness I get when I am atthe beach through this photo.My artistic intention in this photo wasto make the sky the main focus of thephoto. I really like how pretty and bluethe sky looked. This is at the top of amountain in Tahoe. I also likedthe snow capped mountain tops. Ithink the fence adds some texture anddepth to the photo, so I did not crop itout.My artistic intention in this photo was tomake the single pink rose the main focus ofthe photo, but to still have the other rosesand leaves in the picture. I wanted to makethe single rose the focus of the picturebecause I wanted to emphasize the bright,vibrant colors of the petals. Also, I wanted tocapture the rough texture of the leaves. Iwanted to show the entire park, so I tookthe photo from this angle so that the viewerwould see it.My artistic intention for thisphoto was to capture thecityscape and the setting sun.Then I edited the photo to lookalmost like a painting ordrawing. I wanted to make thesky more vibrant to outline thetops of the buildings. I alsowanted to make the brightyellow sun the main pointfocus, so I made it thebrightest. This is a view fromthe bay bridge.Photos By Talia Venchiarutti, 7th Grade

Taken at Filoli. Filoli is about a 45minutecar ride away. The purpose ofthis picture is to have the green reallybe brought out against the brick. It isalso meant to represent a path thatsomeone can take in life by passingthrough that door. Overall, this is aphoto that I took for viewers toreflect.This is a photo I took at Trinity. Trinityis in Redding, California. The purposeof this picture was to capture the riverrunning down the mountain atsundown. I thought the trees casted anice shadow of the sunlight. I also likethe colors. For example, dark green,light green, blue, and yellow.This photo was taken on Cape Cod. I wantedto take this photo because at the time, blueis my favorite color. I loved how the sunreflected one million diamonds off theocean surface. The clouds also createsomething in the sky that can be anything,anybody wants them to be. The wavescreate dimension in the photo.This photo was taken on Star Island, NewHampshire. Not only isisgorgeous, it holds a lot offun memories. For example, my friend Kaitlyn wasalmost pooped on by aseagull. The purpose of thisphotograph is to demonstrate pure prettiness. Therigid rocks, against the soft green grass, with thepurple water. Although it does not look like it, thewater that is in the island like this, is actuallypurple.Photos By Kit Vernon, 8th Grade

I took this photo because I liked howthe tree looked. I also liked how thepink trees were in the background. Ithought that it looked interesting. Thecolors were nice because they are sodifferent, but they still blendedtogether. I also liked how the tree wasleaning to one side.I noticed these trees because they aredifferent colors. I thought it lookedinteresting how there were two greentrees and three pink ones. I liked howdifferent the colors were. The spacingof the trees also caught my attention. Itook this picture because it lookedunusual and because I haven’t lookedat trees a lot lately.All of the pictures I took were of nature. Thereason was because we don’t go outside alot during quarantine. I took this picture ofsome flowers because I haven’t seen themfor a while since I was stuck at home. I wentoutside today, so I took this picture so that Icould enjoy the flowers when I was backinside. I liked the way they looked when Isaw them, so I wanted to save this memorywith a picture of the flowers.I took this photo on my way back home from thestore. Just like the previous photo, I liked how thepink and green colors created a lot of contrast. Itook this photo because the pink tree and thegreen bushes kind of layered on top of each other.I thought that the bush in the bottom left cornerwas interesting because there is some distancebetween it and the bushes and they were bothalmost the same color. However, I noticed how theleaves were shaped very differently, and it wasinteresting how things could share the same color,and still be so different.Photos By VictoriaBabitskaya, 7thGrade

I decided to take a picture of my tree outsidemy house. I decided to put the watercolor filteron on the tree because the most often work Isee of watercolors is in nature. I also wantedviewers to see the background. I wanted this tohappen because there is no one there becauseof the shelter in place in San Francisco. I alsowanted to put the tree lights on so the treewould stand out because that was my subject.In this photo a took a picture of myMagnolia tree in my backyard. I put acamcorder filter on the tree. I do thisbecause I wanted viewers also to seethe bamboo. This filter made thebamboo stand out my stretching outthe bamboo. I also took this photo atan angle to make the tree way biggerthan the bamboo.Watercolor TreeCamcorder TreePhotos By Jack Brilliant, 7thGrade

This is called the pathway because there is alight at the end. That light represents goodstuff. It is also showing if you chose the rightpath to follow good things will happen.

I cI choose the photo of my light pink flowers becausetheflowers are a very pretty pink color and they are verybeautiful. Also we have had these flowers for as long as Ican remember and they only grow once a year. The flowersjust started to bloom like a week ago, and they are sobeautiful, I just had to capture them. I chose that filterbecause it brightened the green leaves and made the pinkpop more. I choose the photo of the purple flower because purple is myfavorite color and the color of the flower is so beautiful and sobright. The flowers are relatively new we got them beforequarantine and they have bloomed into this magnificent flowerthat is so colorful. I also chose to take a picture of it becausewhen I walked into my backyard the sun had hit the flowerperfectly and brightened the purple. I chose the filter to bringout the brightness of the purple and the darkness of the greenleaves behind.I took this photo in a field in theGolden Gate Park while I waswalking my dog,. I stopped totake this because I love howpretty the yellow is and theshape of the flower. I havenever seen a flower with thisshape on it and I found it to bereally pretty. Also it shows thewhite daises in the backgroundwhich brighten up the yellowflowers. Photos ByMaggieFannon, 8thGrade

FAITH

This is a sculpture of my dog. I decided not to paint this piece because it would take awayfrom the image. I used sceulpting tools, my hands, toothpicks, and air dry clay. This picture of Gretel is when she is looking up tome. She sees what I am doing, and wants me topay attention to her. When I finally do, she wagsher tail and hits books onto the floor. Hermassive tail is like her massive personality. Italways knocks people off the table. Here, I see her nose. She is putting it up tomy face to say hi. But also to say "Eloise, Iwant you're eating!" She is the most caringdog in the world. She knows when to beaffectionate, and when to hold back. Eloise Stone, 7th Grade

It’s called the stained glass window because it is one. Thispicture was taken in the backyard of my uncles house. Thisstain glass window is there because his uncle made themso he installed one in his backyard. This is part of faithbecause you will see them outside of churches which iswhere you pray. That’s the stained glass window.My intention was to remind others of the purpose ofJesus. Jesus was there to forgive us of our sins. Hesacrificed himself so that we may have a chance to joinGod in his kingdom. We must never take his sacrificefor granted. We must live a good holy life like Jesusand God wanted. We can live a holy life by praying andgoing to mass. If we don’t, all that agony Jesus enduredwas for nothing.EfuaEssien, 3rdGrade Ella Kummer, 4th GradePhotos ByAshley Villing, 7th Grade
