My Brothers Eagle Project


My Brothers Eagle project benefitted the Rodgers Wildlife Rehabilitation
Center in Hutchins, Texas. We built a 15x9x12ft high structure
to house injured hawks or other injured birds.
It was a great experience!



Merit Badge College 2012

This year in Merit Badge college, I took Computers, Art, and Chess,
This blog was created to complete on of the requirements in Computers, and for the most part I find this Merit badge pretty easy!
I also took Art. Now I suck at Art, but the requirements dont look that bad, and my mom has a one whole wing of the house dedicated to teaching classes in papercrafts, painting. So hey, I know I have the materials and the backup help to get that one done. I will post the pics of the art I did. Im pretty pleased with them. You have to pic a subject and then choose 4 different mediums to draw it in. I found a clip art of an Eagle I liked. (since my Eagle board of review is in 2 weeks, I chose that). then I traced it and used my 4 methods. I think my favorite was the Acrylic paint and the watercolor. Pastels was a really big mess!

Art-Merit Badge



This is my subject for Requirement # 3-An Eagle
I picked 4 different mediums. If you choose to use
soft pastels, when you are done, use an aerosol hairspray
to SET it. It wont rub off then and have smudges all over
your completed picture.
