With this project I was able to reflect on who I am as a person. I am honestly a pretty simple person, so I created my mask without too much clutter. On the forehead I put my favorite Bible verse which says, “For we walk by Faith not by sight.” I really enjoy this verse because it means to live by trusting yourself and by believing that there is a reason for the path you are taking. Next to the verse I added a cross and a cowboy boot to emphasize the meaning of this verse. I added the cross because, for me, faith is a huge part of my life. The reason why I added the cowboy boot is because I love country music and western styles, so when I walk, I am “walking” in a cowboy boot. This is why I added the music notes and the title of one of my favorite songs, ‘Til You Can’t, which is about living your life to the fullest while you can. Then, I added a football and dance shoes to portray my passions. Lastly, I added the Italian flag over my mouth to not only show Italian heritage, but to poke fun at the Italian accent many of my peers have pointed out.
