Japan

Many vivid and saddening images stayed with me. The earthquake and tsunami in Japan was devastating for the people who were affected by it. Towns were wiped out, cars were floating in the streets and it was just a complete mess. Many people there need help to recover. Three wishes I have for the people are that families are reunited, the towns are rebuilt and the economy gets back on track.

Getting Back to Materials

I chose to use envelopes to make my self portrait because it would be easier than the other thing to choose from. I knew that envelopes have two sides so I could use that to my advantage. The process I used was to make the general body first and then go from there. i would then add a head with eyes and a mouth. However, I did not get a chance to add arms. I feel pretty good about my finished product because for the time we were given, I thought it turned out pretty good. If we were given more time, I think the finished product could have been a lot better.
