 Week One!

This first week I am setting up my studio and focusing on past projects that I am proud of and that I think I can build my thesis around more this upcoming year. I really liked working with sculpture and new materials. I want to also keep focusing on print and collage, and plan to look more into the history of collage and zines specifically to help get ideas of where to take my art next.

  Week 2! This week I was busy with several projects, I worked on a tiny dollhouse room sculpture for my Friday drawing class. We were given a partner and then told something to do, my instruction was to create something from a different perspective. I thought the word perspective was intriguing so I ran with it and decided to make something smaller than I was used to and also have it be a forced perspective with the table going back smaller into space. I am proud of how it turned out although if I had more time I would add a lot more details and maybe people to it.  What I worked on during my senior studio time was one of my first collages. I am experimenting with some new materials as well as imagery. I wanted to continue to use some of my childhood photos and memories and put them together in a visually interesting way. The color purple is also showing up a lot more in this work because it sort of represents me but also being in the middle of things. I wanted...

 week 9! This week was crazy busy and I got a lot done and still have a lot to do, seems like a rush now to finish things before December which is next month already, feels like just yesterday was the first day back. Anyways I applied for an internship at the fabric workshop for the summer. I finished my one large portrait collage, and have another in the works. As well as a new poster design in the works for something I enjoy or brings me joy. As well we finally decided on a poster and name for the Demuth show!! I have to decide what piece to put in and need to figure out frames for a few of my pieces as well.

 Week 3!  This week I worked on finishing some collage pieces for the first senior critique today, overall I am happy with how they turned out and the feedback I got in class today, although I think I am going to switch directions and work with a different material now. I think I am going to continue with the theme of childhood and now focusing on how my family didn't have much growing up so getting your needs met was a challenge everyday and we had to go without a lot. Focusing on food, money, and housing mainly as the aspects we are always insecure about.  I also finished working on my sculpture for my other class and the obstruction project for the drawing class. This time my challenge was to make something happy and It had to be a 2-d piece, I may have cheated a little and made it more of a 3-d object but overall I am happy with it and I tried a new process which was actually really fast and easy to transfer the image to fabric which I will be using again most likely....
