So last week at school we had a juried art show.  This means they bring in an art professor or critique from outside the college to come look at all the work that has been submitted by students and then choose the ones they like to be hung in the gallery on campus.  It is a requirement for art majors to enter their art into two shows.  They don't have to be selected but you have to at least entered.  SO i thought i should probs enter into the show.  WEll i got two out of the three pieces selected!!!!!!  pictures soon to come!

 So here is my finished project.  i think i have now with all the hours spent 42 hours working on this one image.  But it is done!!!

 Detailed up close look at some parts of the picture.

These are from my final project.  I used the primary colors of ink red, yellow and blue to create these ink paintings.   In the end I created about nine.  It was a lot of work cause the paper doesn't absorb anything because it is uipo paper which is plasticy. 

Fun from last semester

This is just some fun art work I created last semester!

Balance is key for life but my problem is actually balancing everything. In theory it works but then especially when you through art into the picture it becomes a whole different story.  

I started my day today at 9 went straight to 3 doing art this included art class which i'm taking print making right now so yeah... the concept for the project was to carve a block of wood, create a print then around the print add a drawing of something. well i didn't like my first block cause my tools were crappy.  then i did a second block/ flipped it over.  wow i know cool right.  then carved it without a plan.  i just followed the grain.  i ended up creating this awesome print.    the thing i worked around it and realized i like the piece without the print....not want i wanted because wan't part of the assignment.   what is a girl to do?  

i am just going to have to spend another 20 hours on a new piece all together.  i'm not to excited about it but i want it to be done right.  so yeah.  but here is what it looks like with the print.  i haven't taken a blade to it yet.

This is a more detailed photo of some of the spots up close.
