This is my newest piece which will be called imprisonment.

Cleveland Trip

Well, I went and looked at the sample, but I don't have it to show, the guy kept it. I found a picture on the internet of what the material kind of looks like. The images are going to be mounted on this vinyl and then placed on black gator board. The vinyl is made to appear as metal but it is not metal. It has a neat texture in it and I think it looked really good with my images.

Sample...checkkk

Well, my sample is finallyyy ready so I am going to drive up to cleveland tomorrow to get it. I will have it at the critique on monday to show!

Things that inspire me....well I am inspired by every bridge that I see obviously. I love seeing new ones and the possible architecture that they form. Bridges tell a story to me and that is why I love using them in my artwork.

Despondency Inferno FragmentedDisconnectDeliquesceInsufflate

Despondency is a loss of courage or hope. Inferno I used to mean when your life is "up in smokes", getting intense and really heated up. Disconnect and Fragmented stages in your life. Deliquesce means to melt or fade away, so in life when memories are coming and going and things are fading away. Insufflate is to breathe, so that stage in your life where you feel like all your doing is just breathing and trying to make it through life.

Sample!

Well, liquidimage got the sample in of what I might mount my images on, so I am very excited about that. I hope to finish up all my work soon and start the printing process. so excited!

Current Situation

Well, right now I have 4 pieces that are finished, and I am currently working with three. One should be completed soon and the other two are just at the beginning stages. Once I get the first five completed I am going to post them together so everybody can see them as a series. I am not exactly sure how many I am going to have for this semester and my senior show. I'm just working really hard to bust out as many as I can right now.

Casey Waters

My favorite photographer in the current show is Casey Waters. I love how her images are displayed on a mirror. To me, it made the display more personal, because I could see my own face when looking at the images that are transferred onto this mirror. It also made me look around the image more. From one angle you could only see part of the image; therefore, you had to keep moving around to see the entire image. I think it makes you interact with the image more. So to me her display is really what I enjoyed, it took the plain images to another level.
