My Favorite Part

It all started in June 2007, at the Eglinton Elementary Public School, in Toronto, Canada. Eight students from the special ed classroom, varying in age and disabilities, participated in  a workshop I taught where I covered the basics of image making and composition. We met 2-3 times a week for a month.

The project was entitled "My Favorite Part". I asked them to choose a favorite part of themselves, write about it and think how they wanted to frame that special part of themselves. They worked in pairs. The result was amazing!! 

We hung their works in the Great Hall of the school...they were so proud.

These are a few examples. Enjoy.
