Head Piece

Manipulation: I think I did okay with the manipulation of materials. I mixed media which I never do so it was a good and new challenge for me. With the reed, I had to learn how to work with it because I never had before. To make the spiral things, I got the reed wet and then wrapped it around glue sticks and tapped it at the ends to make the twisting stick. I let it dry, removed the tape and then glued them on. That was a new challenge for me but I liked it. In terms of the cards, I think the fact that I cut them into
rectangles kind of made them look like shards so it gave it new dimension. I also think it was good how I mixed using the face of the card and the back of the card.

Paige's Feedback:
-done with consideration of the cards
-has a lot of movement

Nat's feedback:
-didn't bend but got a curve -> clean and neat
-likes the spirally things


Problem Solving: At the beginning of the project, I had some sort of crown assembled from the AP art retreat so I knew that I should probably try to work off of it because it was already started. A big concern of mine however was that the crown wouldn't look interesting. If it was too symmetrical, then I thought it would look boring. So I talked to you and we talking about exaggerating one side. As I built up one side, I thought it was still missing something. The cards were blending in too much with one another. So I looked around the room and saw that a lot of people were using the reed. I thought it would be good to incorporate the reed because it would add another texture and help with the exaggeration

Sam's Feedback:
-likes the spiraling up
-asymmetrical looks good
-looks interesting
-good negative space

Nat's Feedback:
-made a cool headpiece
-did cards in a unique way
-addition of reed adds a different and good vibe
-good comp.
