Part One:
The link above is the very rounded out basics of what I spent every hour of my time doing for the last week. I could have included lots of time staring up into the ceiling or out the window looking at nothing, but those were only for second increments that I didn’t think counted. There were, however, lots of hours that I spent relaxing – more than I realized there would be. It rather surprised me, actually. Of course I should have spent more time on my English homework, and I should have gone to South Congress for my other visual studies class, but I didn’t. I suppose I’ll have to really focus more on schoolwork in the future if I don’t want to fry my brain by finishing all my homework ten minutes before class.
Part Two:
I am personally very interested in learning about how to create with all sorts of new mediums, because I absolutely love all of the potential in each one and how they differ and overlap with one another. This one in particular was an experimentation in molding with acrylic paint, something that I had never used before. I was really interested in this picture to begin with because it really flowed; all I focused on was the idea of using the colors to create shapes instead of using outlines to create those shapes, and the rest of the picture just sort of happened. So for that reason among many, I am proud of this picture and chose it for this blog post.
