Stencil



The stencil I used for my sketchbook was one of Professor Lopez's images. When I chose my original image I didn't use one that was a workable stencil. I have never made a stencil before so after Professor Lopez gave her instructions on how to cut I realized my image wasn't going to work. Now that I know how to create stencils I will use that skill to create something on the back on my sketchbook.

Luckily, one of the images I was able to choose from represents part of my ideology and who I am. The iconic fist within the female symbol represents who I am because do identify as a feminist. For me, feminism is a way of creating an awareness of the inequalities people face. It also allows to advocate for the rights of marginalized people. I want to use feminist ideologies to help my community to gain better access to resources others automatically have.
