1. Explain how you changed your photo in the lab to create a stencil.

i made the windows the area i cut out so it wouldnt make problems later when using the xacto knife

2. When creating the collage background explain your choices of colors, materials (magazine paper, books pages, etc), and placement. How does it relate to your topic? If no relation discuss general idea.

i used black to cover up all of the newspaper then two other dark colors (blue and purple) so when i added the white it would stand out more

3. Discuss the way positive and negative space was used to create your stencil.
i used dark colors then a lighter color so the positive and negative could stand out more
4. When using the xacto knife, explain the safety procedures, how to use the knife and any challenges you had to overcome while cutting.
we had to cut away from ourselves so we didnt accidently get cut and we had to cut at a angle which was supposed to make it easier

5. How was your experience with the spray paint? Discuss how color choice is important, placement of stencil, and any other concepts you noticed while creating this. i liked this the most because we got to go outside and use the spray paint which gave us a chance to get out of the crowded class room
