Can We Talk
Tevin Campbell

VERSE 1:
Last night I
I saw you standing
I started
Started pretending
I knew you
You knew me too
And just like a baby I could not talk
I tried to come close but could not walk
Now I think of it every night
How I just could not get it right
Ooh, next
next time you come my way
I'll know just what to say

CHORUS:
Can we talk for a minute
Girl I want to know your name
Can we talk for a minute
Girl I want to know your name

VERSE 2:
I started
to write you a letter
But I wanted
to be more clever
I wanted to get down and sweet talk you
Hey, baby
But just like a Roni you were too shy
But you weren't the only one, so was I
Girl if
we should come close again
I know what I'll say then

CHORUS

Oh, girl
One more chance
with you again
I will not let it go
Ooh, babe
Give me just one more chance
For love, love, love, love

CHORUS

Can we talk for a minute
Come on and talk to me baby
Say I wanna know
Well, come and tell me your name baby
I said talk to me for a minute
Come on and talk for a minute
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know your name

assignment #18 Typography practice portraite

this is a great illustration because the artist is wearing glasses and they blend in nicely with her skin tone, hair, and lip stick. her glasses has a glare like they are real and it looks great the hair isn't covering her face and her lip stick makes the photo pop because it is a bright red and

it goes great with her glasses.

this is a great illustration of the artist because its a photo with words and it looks like the words are the skin. this piece was made in 2009 by mos def a hip hop rap artist. the words that pop out to me are beautiful and boogieman. those words stand out to me because they are in bold and they are on the eyes of the artist.

I don't know who this is but this is a great illustration of the artist the purple is a really nice color and it blends great with the photo. The artist eyes pop with the bleedings of the color. and the word beautiful is nice big and bold. that was the first word i noticed when i seen the photo. there are word on the artist nails and her scarf and it looks really nice all together.

Artist Statement

By: Dyrell Wilson

With all of my accomplishments and disappointments, I have always been especially proud of my school work and art assignments. Going to Glad Tidings Church of God in Christ has had a huge impact on my life because it is a shelter close to my home that I fell protected and safe in. I love the pastor and the messages he brings to the congregation. the church choir is amazing and you can fell there hearts and compassion when they are singing there songs. I love the church being apart of my life because i feel secure and protected in the power of the blood of Jesus Christ when I think about God and how he has been the head of my life and my salvation. I love God because so many wonderful blessings has came from the power of him.

The materials I used to make my art work was water color paint brush, paint, gray scale, photo shop, and illustrator. To make my art piece i needed those materials and soft wears so it can look the way i wanted it to look. i chose those specific colors because that's the colors of the church. most of the colors I had to use as a substitute because I couldn't find all of the exact colors. i think my piece is good because I worked hard on it, but I could have done better because i started to rush toward the end of the piece. In the end i feel it really came out good.

the texture of the piece is smooth and rough. the smooth part is the bottom half and everything flows together. The rough part is at the top of the piece, the church is built in a different way and it was hard to paint at the top of it. I tried to get every thing to flow together and it does in a way i really can't explain how it al flows but it does and I'm proud of it.

The message i was trying to send was church can help you when you need it and they will always come threw for you. i wouldn't use any other image because i love going to church and being around churchly people. i spent about two weeks on my piece. my piece is very special to me because I worked hard and long on it. This isn't my best work but it is close to it and i am not ashamed of my work because mine is not the worst art piece. if I had more time to make my piece it would be be more art and colors but i only have a limited of time to finish my piece.

I really enjoyed doing this art piece because it was something different and exciting to use different brush tools and colors. my piece is successful is because i am proud of it and other people like it. if other people like my piece than i like it even more. My art piece represents me because I go to church every sunday and i love spending time with my lord.

semester reflection

Congratulations! You've made it halfway through the semester and in five months you'll be graduating high school!!! For the following entry, I'd like you to reflect on the semester, with each reflection being a minimum of 5 sentences.

1) Reflect on your final grade in this class. What will you do to either keep the grade you received or how will you genuinely work to improve your grade in this class? (minimum of 5 sentence reflection).

I know I did not disserve the final grade you gave me because I am way better than a “D+”. I never gave any problems, always showed respect and I always did my work. The reason I joined CMMA is because I thought they will be there for a boost for college, but I was wrong. I did better in my non-CMMA classes than I did in CMMA the classes. So now in my decision of CMMA I don’t see the point of it if the teachers are not going to enhance the students grade. I really wanted to drop out of the academy and just have regular classes because I feel the regular non-academy teachers will try to push and help the students pass the class. The way I will improve my grade is by working two times harder than the other students because tat will be the only way I will get a good grade, but I will never suck up to a teacher.

2) What was your favorite project this past semester and why? What was your least favorite project and why?(minimum of 5 sentence reflection).

My favorite project was the iPod silhouette. I liked that project because it was an expression of how I feel and it was fun to make and to get it put on a shirt. My least favorite project was the occupy movement project. I didn’t like the occupy movement project because I received a bad grade on the project because supposable I didn’t do enough work on it. We wouldn’t even have an occupy movement video if I didn’t add the extra help in the video.

3) How has your senior year been so far? Are you working towards your goals of graduating? If yes, what are you doing to making sure you stay on track? If no, what has been stopping you from reaching the goal of graduating?(minimum of 5 sentence reflection).

My senior year with out the academy has been great, but in the academy has been a difficult processes, i like CMMA but some teachers don't push and support the students. i feel like the teachers are just hear for the money and they don't care if the students go to college or not. I don't like to feel that way because out of all the teachers i have senior year i feel they care about me, and me going to college. I just don't feel that with my CMMA classes.

4) What are you looking forward to most about graduating high school? (minimum of 5 sentence reflection).

What I am looking for most in graduation is continuing my learning career in college with our with out the support of the ones who are suppose to help. I will work hard and be able to make sure i can walk the stage and make my family proud of me achieving my goals and make them proud of me going to a university. I will miss high school but I will be glad to get out because I will be able to move on with my life and be able to get my degree in radio and television broadcasting and wok as a radio personality.
