Waking Life

I really fell in love with what we saw of this film. The scenes were so beautiful and the fact that each one was so unique. The concept of different artists creating the different scenes was genius because it gave each one a different style. It ranged from some parts that were hyper realistic, to other scenes that were more graphic and cartoon like. The whole thing was so lovely and I really hope to rent the movie and watch the whole thing. 

ALMOST DONE!

I go in the big person shape in the center... I'm just not there yet!

Charles Burchfield

The artist I am choosing for the photoshop project is Charles Burchfield. His paintings are absolutely beautiful. He mostly focuses on landscapes, but they are always in interesting perspectives and show nature in it's most tranquil state. He mainly used watercolor to achieve these wonderful pieces. I really love the style of the work and the natural color pallets. They are very organic and give me a happy feeling inside. =]

Freshman Seminar

So this weeks freshman seminar was all about scheduling for next semester. I found it SO helpful because quite honestly, building my schedule scares the shit out of me. I know most of it is done for us, but that only gives us limited time to do GEN EDS, so it's kind of a battle to find a time. BUT I have confidence that I will find a class and be able to take it and whatnot because I have already done it once! The ladies from the admissions office came to talk with us and help us figure out what requirements we need to get out of here so that was also helpful, but also really stressful. I don't really like planning out my future when I can barely plan out the next 2 hours ahead of me. But hey, at least I have a better concept of what needs to happen!

self portrait

So this is my self portrait and I sort of like it. The process was actually fun and I enjoyed doing it, even though I am not very good at it. I really hope everyone else gets a kick out of it as well!

5 PATTERNS

Here are my patterns!!!!

Doug Bucci

Doug Bucci is a very, very interesting man. He not only is a talented artist but a survivor of many different ailments that have only made him as well as his art stronger. I was very interested in his work because I am hoping to declare my major in jewelry making. I love the pieces he create because they are not only beautiful, but they tell a story about himself as well as millions of others who understand his situation. I felt very inspired after I saw his presentation and I hope to one day achieve what he has achieved for himself.

PUPPY

I'm sorry for this.
