In this class we?ll be working on two small projects and one larger one of your choice. The two small projects are "What a Blast" and "Which Came First" pictured below. The third project will be one you design. As the photo for the birdhouse shows you really can "Personify Anything". I will show you lots of other objects I?ve personified to help you imagine what you can do in this class. A big part of the fun in this class will be working out all the technical details of your own big project and I hope you?ll let me help you create just what you have in mind.
