Routine

Here's my project. I've been really sick for I while and I based it off of that. Basically I collected a day's worth of my most...significant? i guess you can say tissues. I feel like this basically sums up the last few weeks of my life perfectly; with dirty tissues. I didn't have alot of trouble with this. It was mostly the printing sitch that kicked my ass. Took me forever. I do wish I did something with the background and I wish the text showed darker on the computer. I like the way it looks printed out but on the computer I feel like it's more of a strain to see.

Composite

 

This is my composite project. I had a little bit of trouble with it and am not entirely satisfied with my final outcome. Like I always say though, me and computers do not combine well in the making of art. Overall it was an average assignment that I had some difficulties with.

Tuesday Lecture, Book Binding

I was one of the monitors that was asked to help prepare the "books" to be bound so I came in expected something completely different. It was funny cause I don't really think the person who was assigned for my class to teach us really knew what she was doing. I think I grasped the concept but I was having difficulty. My came out looking kind of like a braid..I think that was what it was supposed to look like. I know that my next 2d project involves book binding..I'm not that excited for it. Maybe the workshop just gave me the wrong impression of it. I just kept getting frustrated. Maybe it was just too early in the morning...

lectureee

The lecture last week pertained to internships. Seniors just kind of shared their stories on how they got hired and what they did as interns. I found the lecture to be interesting; obviously interning is something we are all going to need to do at one point or another during our college career so an early introduction to such is, in my opinion, much needed. Plus the graphic design girl was so perky so early in the morning and a mix between annoyingly entertaining and entertaining(ly?) annoying. Either way i dug it.

transformations

i kinda liked the way the moon and the outline of his head looked sooooo i kept it :O)

sassy gay friend ! "what what what are you doing?"

easy as pie :O) mostly because i have already taken a class on photoshop so i am familiar with transformation methods.

 kinda tedious but do-able.

Self Portrait, Jenny Saville

This assignment was okay..it was kind of frustrating trying to figure out how to copy her style cusing a computer program. I kind of have it down but i don't really like my final piece. I also forgot to change the settings on my history so alot of my mistakes i couldn't go back and correct...tha twas annoying. Overall it was an okay assignment.
