A blast from the past for all of your amusement, resurrecting a project I did for an Intermedia Art class in November 2008. This class about fried my little Art Education: Drawing concentrarion brain. I didn't realize that Intermedia meant audio, visual, video, and performance art. To be honest, the class initially said "Mixed Media" and they ( Read more... )

So as mentioned previously, I EXPLODED with art this last semester and, to save you all from having to plow through fifty plus images (that and I'm still cleaning up photos of some of them) I'll do it in portions. The first portion being paintings ( Read more... )

My diploma came in the mail today!

I am certifiably graduated!

For all I have to do today is take my paintings up to ASU and drop them off to be graded ( Read more... )

This is my last Thursday of classes. Technically I'll have to go up next Thursday, but that's just to drop off the two paintings that are sitting in the living room so they can be graded. Today I paint feverishly and draw rabidly as well. Tuesday I have two critiques and then ... bliss ( Read more... )

A week ago Saturday I had a rather exciting encounter. I was watering my parent's horses and felt something cool against my leg. I didn't think too much of it at first as I had accidentally sprayed myself at one point. I looked down, didn't see anything, but didn't feel entirely reassured as the leg with this odd sensation was not the one that ( Read more... )

I'm going to make myself sound a bit like an old coot with a title like that, but it struck me as I went in to work on my paintings yesterday. I left about two hours early so I could put some extra time on my Vanitas still life and also give me the chance to leave about 30 min. early without feeling guilty so I can catch the bus an hour early (not ( Read more... )

I haven't had the chance to take pictures of the paintings I've done this semester, mostly because only two of them are finished and the other two are not really very close to being done at all. Mayhaps I'll take pictures of them the next week, but the semester is just a month away from being over and that's not too long to wait, is it ( Read more... )

I now have two paintings finished of the four we're doing for the class (a possible fifth, but that one, I think, hinges on how fast we work. My vanitas is still in-progress and part of me really wants to scrap it and start over, but my instructor said I should sludge through it ( Read more... )

So I have two studio classes this semester. Drawing IV (also called Advanded Drawing, which I am taking for the second time) and Painting II. I have Painting II in the mornings and while it has a wonderfully loose atmosphere (none of the paintings are due until the end of the semester) full of existentialist talks and readings (yes, the ( Read more... )
