Arts and Crafts 12

I can get new ideas in areas in which I have an interest and build my skills to make them work.

This project was about creating a shadow box. A shadow box is artwork—three-dimensional items and textured works of art. In past classes, I enjoyed using an exacto knife to cut straight lines, which was calming for me. This project was a bit of a struggle, as it was hard to cut around the curves of the outline. What helped me was using a ruler around all the curves, gently moving it around to cut on the line. In the end, this project was successful, as it was just how I imagined it to be. My core competency was thinnking, as it was hard to get a clean cut. Doing reassembly helped me find this method instead of freehanding it.
