Transparency art

We had to print an image out so that Sir could send it to the front office and it got transferred to an over-head transparency paper. When we had our images done we had to set up the Transparency Projector. We also had to set up the paper on the wall. After we had finished that we traced around the outline of the image we went around the lines harder so we could see the better. Some of us did our art in pastel and paint and some of us didn't.
