There's really no such thing as a stereotypical teen!. I do alot of character design and teens are certainly the most diverse type of person!. Physically they vary the most, short, tall, thin, fat, athletic, Some teens legs grow faster then their bodies, girls can be very tall but without developing breasts or hips yet,
Style wise they're also more diverse, punks, emos, goths, jocks, preps, tom-boys, skeets, rockers!.
I think a collage is a good idea, just because of the huge variety of types!. If you want a 3D piece you could make a cone or spiral out of bristol board, or get some foam-board from your local art store and cut slots in the pieces so they fit together and build up some kind of structure!.
Find as many different images as you can find, from all the different types of teens you can think of!. You could call the piece "Unique" because no two teens are alike!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A typical teen: I would do a sorty of bag or bulliten board!. no a desk, on dat desk a half empty starbucks cup, homework,a sprots gear or scedule, cell phone, magazines, notbooks full of diary entries, i love vblank ans stickers all over it, etcWww@QuestionHome@Com
