- Hi, I'm Courtney

3
00:00:03,463 --> 00:00:05,272
and I'm an artist and author.

4
00:00:05,272 --> 00:00:08,273
I create displays and I make a lot of different things,

5
00:00:08,273 --> 00:00:09,425
and because of all of those,

6
00:00:09,425 --> 00:00:12,541
I tend to also be a collector of objects.

7
00:00:12,541 --> 00:00:14,526
I'm gonna show you how to create a shadow box,

8
00:00:14,526 --> 00:00:16,747
which is essentially a 3D collage.

9
00:00:16,747 --> 00:00:19,396
We'll talk about how to edit down your collection

10
00:00:19,396 --> 00:00:21,649
into those really special elements.

11
00:00:21,649 --> 00:00:23,153
We'll create a composition.

12
00:00:23,153 --> 00:00:24,472
What I love about a shadow box

13
00:00:24,472 --> 00:00:26,053
is it gives a sense of preciousness

14
00:00:26,053 --> 00:00:27,232
to these everyday objects

15
00:00:27,232 --> 00:00:29,912
through the making of the actual tiny little world

16
00:00:29,912 --> 00:00:31,011
that we're creating.

17
00:00:31,011 --> 00:00:32,204
And because of the scale,

18
00:00:32,204 --> 00:00:33,875
we're really gonna invite viewers to look

19
00:00:33,875 --> 00:00:35,700
into that miniature world.
