Below are some examples of making changes to the soap and documenting, by Spencer Finnell.

You are required to photograph each change that you make to the soap. 

The first images shows a wet paper towel. 

The second shows added holes and paprika spice sprinkled on top. 

The third image shows the addition of toothpicks and tacks.

Observe from life. Use a plastic animal as a source and carve two proportional forms from soap.

The images below are selected images from the changes made to one of the soap carvings. Students were asked to make at least eight changes. The result is a form entirely different from the original. Final solution is to be mounted.
