In art class we are doing a project with subway maps. We were aloud to choose what we wanted to make a long as it had to do with NYC. I choose to make a pigeon! I see them everyday and I thought that since they’re everywhere that would be a good choice. I started out by drawing the shape of the pigeon out on a piece of foam board three times. Then using an exact-o knife I cut them out. After that I glued them together to make the pigeon thicker. Then I cut the same shape out of the map and glued it on top. I got more foam board and cut out the wing and bend the tip so it would flap out. I used clear tape to holed the wing on. I put black paper on the wing and two stripes of map. Then I cut out the beak from orange paper and glued that on. With a little extra piece of map I cut out two strips and rolled them up and taped them. Then on one end of each I cut three little marks and pulled them down to make feet. I taped the legs to the bird. I’m not sure what else I’ll do! I might make more or have the bird flying but I’m open for idea’s!
