Statue of Liberty


For this image we used photoshop and used threshold to turn the photo to black and white. Then we printed the image and used a projector to cut out the stencil. Once we had the image on the stencil, we cut out the pieces that we wanted to be black. The background is pages out of a book. I would cut out paragraphs and just glue them to the back randomly. Then i chose a light color which turned out to be yellow. Because i used a light color as the background i decided to use a dark color as the actual image to show positve and negative space. Using the xacto knife was a little tricky because it did not turn corners well. We also had to always cut away from our hands and body to make sure that we did not cut ourselves.
My expierence with the spray paint was great. This was my favorite project because we got to use spray paint.
