Week 6 - Stencil
The stencil I have decided to do for the cover of my sketch book is of a snake. The reason that I picked this design is because I was born in the year of the snake and frankly it just really appealed to me. A lot of people are scared of snakes but I think they are really cool animals, I have a sort of fascination for them and the way they are since there are many different types of snakes. Originally I wanted to do a dragon or a fish for my stencil, but something about the snake really stood out to me. Towards the end of deciding what I should do I asked my roommates for advice for picking between a fish and a snake since these are two animals that I can use to represent myself because I am a Pisces and I was also born in the year of the snake. I am hoping I am able to create my stencil exactly the way I want it.
