Final Mask

The following is my final mask that connects to my identity.

Reflection

I am quite proud of the final outcome of my mask, I used different materials and objects to finish my mask, such as cotton for the cloud to signify that I daydream a lot. Paint and cardboard to create my nationality, Palestine, cardboard and paints to create the rest of my mask, such as the colorful ears that show headphones with a musical note on the left cheek to signify that I love music, along with the piano keys as my mouth. For my nose I used three layers of cardboard, one stuck down, one folded and another one folded that is under it. I have horns to signify that I am a Capricorn. On my right cheek, I painted a range of colors to show a rainbow, signifying my happy side. To improve, I would have made my mask a lot bigger as compared to other masks, mine is quite small.

4 Drawings of My Mask

The following is my planning of my final mask that connects to my identity.

Reflection

I loved experimenting with different masks and sketching out all the things that connected with my identity,such as hobbies, thoughts, etc. To improve, I would have sketched it out better and used more varied ideas to create different masks. 

Hidden Identities

The following is the front page for the new unit, Hidden Identities, along with the research and drawing of the Ravana Mask.

Reflection

It was interesting to research about different tribes and why they use their masks and how they're made, etc. Drawing the mask was quite fun as I got to use creativity to sketch and color the mask. 

Paper Montage

Reflection

I think I was successful in adding more detail to the plane and building as before in my previous drawings, they were very dull and had a lack of color. I think I was not successful in cutting out the clothing for the cutout of me. To improve, I would choose a different color and add a bit more to the house such as the wall and roof.

Draft Montage

The following is the montage I created before the paper cutouts to join all the four memories into one.

Reflection

I think I was successful in joining all the memories into one. To improve I would add more detail and improve the house I drew which is something I did not find successful.

4 Designs Of My Montage

The following is my four original ideas of a memory that is a part of my identity.

Reflection

I think I was successful in drawing out my ideas and showing 4 very different drawings of the same memory. To improve, I should add more detail to the plane and buildings I drew.
