Other Information	:	In this picture, first I took a photograph of my sister looking into a telescope, printed the photo, scanned it on the computer and then cut it out on white paper to make a silhouette. I dipped my paint brush into white paint and flicked it onto black paper to make the stars in the night sky. Then I used stencils on black paper to make shadows of the trees and grass. Then I glued it onto the black paper along with the sillhouette. I made the moon with chalk and smeared it with my finger. Then I scanned the picture on the computer and used software to blur the stars. And now I'm sending it to you.
