Please bring scissors and glue to class. A gluestick will be easiest for you to use, but rubber cement or a bottle of white craft glue (like Elmer's Glue) will work just as well. You may bring an exacto knife instead of scissors if you have one.

I would also like you to design a simple shape for use in a classroom exercise. It can be abstract if you're a fan of patterns, but I recommend starting with a shape that you like or identify with, like the silhouette of a bird or other animal. Try drawing the shape a few times to make it more visually appealing. In class, I recommended that you imagine if you were going to tattoo this shape on your arm or ankle. When you've got something you like, draw it on a sheet of blank paper and bring this to class. Try making the image about the size of your palm, which is probably three or four inches square.
