6. Georgia O’ Keeffe The famous artist I chose was Georgia O’ Keeffe. She expresses her feelings through art. She possesses self management, and creative thinking. “I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way-things I had no words for.” That was a quote by her. This shows that she expresses her feelings.

7. Extra Interesting Facts Artists also express their feelings through art. There are different types of artists: Art directors, multi-media artists, fine artists, craft artists, illustrators, cartoonists, sketch artists, sculptors, print makers, and painting restorers. Knowing how to use a computer is very important.

8. Reflection I learned that when you want to be successful in a career, you have to work hard to achieve your dreams. Just like an artist, you have to control your self management. You also have to possess all the SCANS skills you need. I hope to become an artist when I grow up. I want to become an artist because I love to draw. Seeing and observing the SCANS skills helps pursue our dreams. Even though it takes a lot of responsibility to follow creative thinking, I think I can still achieve it.

9. Reflection (continued) 3. These same SCANS skills help me be a better student by using them in every day life. For example, I can use reading and writing every day. You can read for at least 20 minutes to improve your reading skills. 4. This project has helped me think about my future because as I researched more and more about my career, I began to realize that you have to work harder and harder once you become older. 5. These new skills have made me more aware of pursuing my dreams and working hard to achieve them. You have to study hard. 6. This project made me think in a new way between the character traits and skills because before this project I always thought that you just have to work hard to be successful. But that’s not all. You have to really pursue your dreams and stand up for it.
