The collage art piece was a launching mini-project that we worked on in Ms. Shani's class to start off the year. For this piece, we looked through magazines and cut out images and words that best represented us as far as personal characteristics, things we enjoy, or culture. We arranged these images and words on paper in a way that looked well arranged. To complete the piece, we also incorporated a self-portrait somewhere with the other images. We used a gridding method to get more accurate results on the self portrait where we mapped out our images on paper first, then went in with more details.
