Finding Your Creativity - Part 1

Background
Creativity. It's an interesting concept. Our art theme this year is creativity - pulling from your own personal ideas to make fun and unique artwork. Living in a postmodern world, nothing you create is new, but it is up to you to create something that is innovative, fun, and shows your concept. 

Assignment
Your assignment is to take a found object and use your creativity to create an environment for that found object. Interpret the object and create a pictorial representation of it. You should PLAY with your objects and ideas in order to find the most unique solution. Play is an important part of the creative process. You can use the found object that I give to you, or you can use an object that you bring in.
