The Story that i am trying to tell in my book is about someone who avoids paying taxes and then moves to the U.S. To tell my story i could only use xeroxs it was very hard to do. in the book i had a page that was the main character thinking about moving to the U.S. i put the character in the middle of the page. him being in the middle emphasized and made you look at him.
The two colors i chose were blue and grey. i thought that i would show the side of being kind of boring and dull. and then blue represents being relaxed and not very hyper.
When i was designing my family portrait i thought more about symbolism than the actual looks. in reality i am taller than my mom and almost equal with my dad. but since parents always seem tall i drew them taller than me. i think that the strongest aspect of my family portrait is my drawing. i think that i did a good job drawing. i payed a lot of attention to detail.
i think that the most successful aspect of my sculpture was the glazing. it was partially on accident but i ended up using two different colors of glaze. in the end though the blend ended up looking really good i think. if i was to make another sculpture i would smooth out the clay more so that it would be easier to glaze.

Block Print

I think that the final Result of the block print was very good. i really enjoyed this project and worked very hard on it. it was very fun to do also. it seemed hard at first but i think that the final result was good.
