Oh no! (It's the last one!)
We were assigned one of two themes, either Interactivity or Re-do. I chose Re-do.
Re-do (v.): when you take a project or art piece you've done before and change something about it to change it (my definition- ha, take that dictionary.com!)
My layering and perspective projects were both somewhat of a redo. I went through my sketchbook and landed on facial features. Specifically, noses.

Remember, a Nose Knows?
Anyways, I was drawing Captain James T. Kirk and Spock from Star Trek the week previous, so I started doodling noses of the actors from The Original Series and the Reboot movies. (pics)
I wanted to make a big nose. And I've wanted to spray paint all year, so logically, those two ideas fitted together in my head.
Firstly, I had to cut a stencil. I used poster board and an exacto knife to cut the pencil-drawn outline.
After two days of cutting out shapes, I finished.
I present to you: a spray-painted nose.

Test-run (only the brown worked)

My stencil (looks pretty good as is)

Final
My risks: I don't have much experience with either exacto knives or spray paint. I'm glad it worked out though. I just have to figure out how to get ALL of my art projects home today.
Last Project- Noses

We walk into class this morning and Mr. Sands is all like, "Grab you a cup. Sit down. Watch. Listen. Fill up your cup with dirt and sprinkle some of these seeds in it. Then go back to your seats." I knew there was a method to his madness. There was. We were to draw the cups of dirt over a period of time and watch the seeds grow. Each day, he had us experiment with a different medium if we so chose.
