Insanity and Bane of My Life

This project was the insanity and bane of my life. I should have taken pictures of the work in progress to show how insane I was. I was considering suicide. O.O It was really bad.

Ok here is the photo I took and use for this project.
I call it Red Umbrella.
very nice right?


Seven hours later, after doing 900 cuts and gluing 300 pieces back together I come up with this...



I was about to cry...
It don't change that much.

I was really worried if my teacher would like it because I had spent so make time on it and worked so hard and was getting head aches just by thinking about the grid I drew on the back of the 20x15 photo so I would know what I would be gluing back together and what to through in the trash and it has the nerve to come out look the same as the original photo.
(play smallest violin in the world and cry out the oceans.)

I got to say my day was made when I got it back and the teacher had given me full marks plus bonus points! (woot! do a dance! :D ) My teacher said that my work was a perfect example of how the mind takes information and finds "closure," which was a concept that we had been discussing in class but didn't really have an example for. claps for me!!! ^^
