'Tis the time to be uber stressed out.

So I've been crazy busy with all of my classes as everyone is trying to wrap up before finals and christmas break. I have been slacking on my 8 project due this nine weeks. So here is what I have and where I'm going:
1. 2nd Screen Print
2, 3, and 4. Are photographs
5. Suicide Print (need to finish)
6. Weave Drawing (need to finish)
7. Dry Point Etching (which I did at GT art and Love)

and 8. Im going to use a photo I took using the shadow technique and do a litho print with it. 

So I have 5 projects done, which is further along than I thought I was!!!

Black friday isn't for shopping, its for homework

I have been swamped with homework on this short break, but I have found some time to brain storm for a photo shoot I am doing with a friend next week. I was throwing around some ideas about things women hide behind. I had the idea to do some pictures with shadows from different items and fabrics and have a model try to come through the shadows, I know that doesn't make a lot of since but you will have to see it. Like the shadow being secrets and how the women must move past them by "finding the light", i guess i have a hard time putting my ideas into words. Also I though about doing something with masks. Elizabeth has bunch of masks she was gonna let me borrow.

This weeks blog....

I have finally started my print, Its a lot harder than I thought it would be. I have decided to do my suicide print first. I really need to get some other projects going over break and Im doing a "photoshoot" with Kara Petterson and Im really excited, so hopefully I will get some things out of that. Also I really like the idea of weaving in my photos with my drawing of the women, but it is not easy and it doesn't look they way expected so hopefully I can get that worked out.

Project Update

I finished my 2nd screen print and really like it. Now I'm starting on my prints. Mrs. Medley has a new printer so I am going to do the picture frame with as an etching because I think it was be easier and safer for my hands because of all the detail. I am going to start my swallow print tomorrow!!! . I really liked the book with the different backgrounds I was going to do something like that and print my Tree Women on it to just give it a more finished look. Also I need to plan to incorporate a painting into my projects, any ideas?

Weave Drawing Idea

So I'm not a huge fan of drawing so i've been slacking on my weave drawing project. I have to top drawing of the women and child finished but the second drawing...not so much. I had the idea of weaving in some kinda of fabric or a photo graph that would still look good and speed things up, what do you think?
