1. Using one of your own photos (a new one for this project), design a stencil. In photoshop, you will be converting the image to black and white, and reducing the levels to pure black and white – no shades of gray. The image must have either all the white or all the black interconnected. You can use a white or black brush on a separate layer as needed.
2. Using an exacto knife which I will provide, cut out the stencil.
3. Select one of the fabric squares from the room. If you have all the white connected in your image, and the black pieces were thrown out, select a light fabric and spray paint black. If you have all the black connected and the white pieces were thrown out, select a dark fabric and spray paint white.
4. When the stencils are done, we will store them in the dark room to air out the smell overnight. (Don’t bring them into my classroom please because of the fumes.)
