With the end of the school year comes projects. Spanish class students had the choice of making a pinata or a vejigante. The material to be used was limited to poster board, flour, water, newspaper,tape and paint. As you see Amy chose the vejigante.
wow, how did amy get the 'arms' or 'tenticles' formed? and the detail of the art on the bottom one's are nice!
(i googled vejigante...it says: Vejigante Masks The ‘vejigante’ is a make-believe character, full of energy and color. The vejigante masks are a classical example of the fusion of African, Spanish and Caribbean cultures in Puerto Rico. Masks are made from paper mache, coconut shells, metal and gourd plant.)

what exactly is a Vejigante? It looks really cool and could do double duty at Halloween!

That's cool! Nothing better for the old egg than art. I applaud Amy for the impressive work and her teacher for giving the assignment.
