    The Dia Dead project was one of my first Data projects of my Jr year. It really let me know what Cauthron expected from us this year. It was a great opportunity to show my work too the community and further my knowledge in photoshop. I hope one day I can sell my artwork too my community and make a career in photography.

    This project was one of my favorites! It really helped me be creative and have my own ideas for things! I really enjoyed not only taking a picture but also just the art. I got to paint my sister's face, and it was quite difficult and took up a lot of time, but the outcome of it ended up turning out great! I love getting to have my own idea with this project and it just really has inspired to me to really do better because I know I have it in me now and I know I can do it.

    Dia De Los Muertos was a great experience because we got to learn about another culture, and it was cool to do the different styles of make-up and take interesting pictures.

    Caroline took a step further than just doing the typical sugar skulls and banner that said "Dia de Los Muertos" and her's is so simple yet it stands out among the rest because it's more unique than the other ones so she rightfully deserves getting paid for it.

    Caroline definitely took it a step further, and it truly shows how much hard work and dedication she put into this photograph. She did way more than the typical skulls and flowers. Im really glad and proud of her.
