This is a self portrait that I created using paper, paint and parts of my daily life, it also contains clay and glass. I hate self portraits in the traditional sense for myself. I prefer to let people see the parts of me that i feel are important rather than my physical self.

With this piece I really felt that since my life is always so hectic I would show a hand throwing tossing or juggling this ball of everything special and important to me and that the hand would sitting in the middle of a very feminine plate.

I enjoyed this project because it allowed me to find out more not only about myself but about my classmates, some which I had never met.
