Stencils

This week we each made a stencil. First we went to the computer lab and printed out a picture of anything we wanted. Then made the black and white. The next step was to trace the picture to enlage it and decided weather to cut out the black or white, I cut out the black. Then we had to make a frame.

Above is me and my friends getting ready to cut the wood for our frames and nailed them together. We backed our frames with cardboard and began painting them with whatever color we wanted. finally we used our stencil and spray-panited them onto our frames. Here I am spray-painting...

Finally we got to take them home, here is the final picture......

The Pokemon-Cat-Thing


This week we worked on a project that I call mossic brick picture. We each printed off a picture in new colors that were not in the orginal. Then we all got in groups and choose one picture to do, we choose a calico cat. After that we went in the court yard and started working. Each brick was 3 pixels. One person would add dots with chalk on the bricks to the wall that matched the colors in the picture. For the whole week we worked on the picture until we got ......... a cat thing, that looks more like Pokemon than a cat. 
(Sorry but I don't have a picture of it :( )
