The Values Tree

This week in art we made Self- portrait, No- portraits. A Self- portrait know portrait is when you create a sculpture or piece of art with reflects your inner self. I made a clay tree and hung what I the character traits which I value in both myself and those I meet. I began with getting some clay from A. C. Moore and sculpting it. Then, after the clay dried, I tied the value leaves onto the branches. I believe that the tree fits my personality and the leaves turned out wonderfully (thanks mom). I wish I had used wires to support the branches, it's very fragile and while it was drying many of the branches kept on falling off. If I were to make this project again I would definitely use support.
