gothic catherdral finished

since i am typing on the computer i dont have any pictures, i will post a completed picture tonight.  Me and olivia tryed to re build the Leon actherdral, or atleast based it after it.  We used the typical gingerbrwad house as the base of our ctherdral and built off of that.  We included all the architpypal features we could think of which includes pointed arches, rose windows, flying butresses, stained glass windows, and a tiled ceining.  We unfortunatley could not thing of a way to have gargaoyles.  I felt that our project was successful.  It turned out pretty much exactly how we had wanted it to.  I wouldnt have changed anything because it stood strong and looked clean and neat at the end.  I enjoyed the individualty of this project and that it was different from anything else ive donre before.

print making

in class we had to design some prints that we wanted to put on a pice of material , I choose a Celtic knot to put on a scarf 

I put on the paint kind of piecey in stead of doing it all together 

this is what it looked like when I was cutting it out 

this is how I put on the paint aside from the typical way 

gothic cathedrals

the gothic cathedrals were so important because they symblolized power , wealth , and prestige.  the main architectural features are pointed arches, flying buttresses , large towers and spears , pillars , stones , and stained glass.  the cathedrals had to be filled with light because that made it possible for the people to see. the cathedrals and designs were very important to the people in this time because they brought the people a sence of pride.
