Stencil Project



This project was a long process from start to end. I chose to do a picture of my best friend, Lydia. First I put the picture into photoshop and inverted the original colors into 3 different colors, or more. Next, I projected the picture onto poster board and traced each shape of each color on a different poster board. Then, I took a blade and cut out the shapes so it became a stencil. I painted a piece of cardboard for the background and then one by one placed the stencils on the cardboard and spray painted each stencil. The finished product looked pretty cool! It wasn't perfect because the last stencil didn't line up perfectly but it still looked cool. This project was really fun and I hope to do something like it again!
