Technique: Mix Media, so you can use any technique. If you want to use a water technique remember to bring an appropiate paper for it. This is the presentation that explains what you have to do with clear instructions and examples:
The AIM or idea of this activity is: Describe yourself (things that you like or dislike, your personality) visually using the technique of the collage. I know a lot of you do not have magazines at home now. You do not need them, you can use toilet paper and paint it, or just colour papers, and your own drawings and lettering.

EXAMPLE OF A SELF EVALUATION
AND DESCRIPTION OF YOUR WORK OF ART:
"Hi teacher,
This is the description of my work and my evaluation. I think I am being honest:
At the start I needed help from my mom to do the profile of my face. Then I worked on the images that best described me and my hobbies. I used the following images in the collage:
- Fire, to describe my passion in everything I do.
- A beautiful landscape, because we are part of nature, and I love it.
- A wolf pack, because the way wolfs take care of each other, shows the power and strength of the community.
- Portraits of women artists, because their lives inspire me.
I organized all those images in the shape of my profile, like you indicated. And I added the words LOVE, HEALTH AND STRENGTH in the background, because I think it is what we need right now.
I am very happy with the result. I think I have done a good job, because I followed the instructions. It also has a good presentation (clean and tidy) a good composition (distribution of the elements of the drawing in the space of the paper), and I really enjoyed doing it. I think my work does not deserve less than a 9."
