Zgomez Art project

This stamp represents me because my stamp symbols talking out and speaking against controversial causes. My final design idea I just thought and said "What represents me?" and I feel like this represents myself. I brainstormed caring, smart, hard working, conscious. I picked a word of speaking out. When I was in 7th grade I went to a public speaking class and you never hid your opinions and that represented me. The importance of positive and negative space is important because when the symbol is opening its mouth it blends with the background. I got stuck doing this project with symbol ideas I constantly kept throwing away numerous amount of paper. I solved it by getting extra help and looking at examples . I learned that positive and negative space is a effective way to express art in a different way.
