Team Beach Bums - Week #2

Upon commencing our second week of bench projects, our group has accomplished many tasks.
We discussed and finalized our design on our butcher paper draft and divided up the work so each group member would be assigned to one design element of the bench. With the assistance of Mister Fobes, we examined how each stencil should be cut and placed on the bench to optimize its space and its visual appeal. 

After finishing our stencils, we took them down to the paint area and created test samples of each stencil using spray cans to help us visualize what the colored products would look like. It was a fun experience since some of our members have never spray painted before! We then photographed the test samples.

Our last task was to create a bench presentation drawing on Illustrator. It included a 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional design using a real life photo of the benches as a template. The 15x20 scaled down drawing is a professional approach to how the final bench project will look and will assist us when we present the posters to the Arts Alive committee on Wednesday, October 29.

Our team is very excited to work more on this project and we can't wait to officially start painting!
