Urban Arts - 4 Hours
We started off the day with snacks and gym time as usual. When we got to the class room we did a shake it out type of dance for a couple minutes. Today was also my first lesson! We started by looking at some accordion style books I brought in and going through some fun papers I had as well. I explained the project as a way to use collage to design your own book covers. Many students did not want to entertain the idea of collage so we made books with the option of collage. I waited to do the pages as I did not know how many students would chose a big book format or a small book format. Since many students were not looking forward to collage we made multiple books instead with the fun papers. During the lesson we listened to music and had a nice casual time making little books and enjoying the time.

Studio update.
Lately I’ve been working a lot with text. I started to print these black squares and have text on them that either relates to one a another or not at all. I found it’s a nice way to show how i’m feeling without getting too confused and allowing for others to put their own feelings into it as well. I think it’s something worth sticking with.
