Materials: Balsa wood, T-pins, wood glue, paper, sand paper and large sander in wood shop.
Dimensions: The cube is 4in by 4in and the paper piece is about 9 by 9 but can be expanded.

Resources: woodshop and  http://foundations3ddesign.blogspot.com/

To Do: Using limited materials, make two, small scale sculptures.Each sculpture must demonstrate height, width and depth. Each sculpture must exist as a sculpture that is viewed from all sides (360 degrees). One of the two sculptures will emphasize balsa wood material + at least one other material. The second will emphasize heavy weight white paper + at least one other material (can be same material used in first sculpture).Each sculpture emphasizes an element or principle of art and design.  Choose two terms from the list below. Each sculpture needs to emphasize one term. What I Learn: Even though I only had two main materials to highlight in this project it was very workable. Trying to find new ways that have not been done before was a challenge, but it was entertaining and a great puzzle of a problem.
