pumpkins!

carving pumpkins after school today was super fun! I didn't win any prizes, but a lot of the pumpkins were some of the best ive ever seen.

My family project and found object project are pretty much done. It really sucks we don't have the opportunity to come in at any time after school anymore; i never realized how much it helped until now so i'll just have to go in during my late arrivals.

im stuck!

I'm almost done with my family project, still more cleaning up to do with it, but so far i think ive decided on what i want the blocks to build up like. Im really stuck on my found objects project though. i have my doll head and i added some paper; so far i think it looks really cool but we will see.

almost done :))

My family project is almost done, and so far im really excited about it. I need to clean up my blocks or cubes and i hope that they turn out as perfect as i expect.

I have a picture of my family.My mom, dad, sister Molly and brothers Ryan and Cory. We are all extremely different but creepily close.

Family

For my family project I am putting six different sized blocks or cubes together. Six represents my family of six people and they are put in an order that I think really fits each person. So far I've made three of them and I cant wait to see how it turns out, I'm really excited!

 I also added a picture of my pill bottle cap dress :)

Lately since i've been finishing my young arts applications and everything i've been thinking a lot more about doing art in my future. I would like to always keep it with me and possibly minor in it. I threw yesterday for the first time and really enjoyed it. I want to keep practicing and learn to throw more and better things. My favorite project so far has been my coil vase i built last year and would also like to make more coil objects.




idk why the free shipping thing is there...

i'm so HAPPY

I have finally decided on exactly what I will be doing for my shocking art piece and I can't wait. I am really happy with this idea and feel that I will be really proud of it and it fulfills my perspective of shocking art. I want to represent  SexTrafficking. I haven't settled on if I will use a blow up doll or mannequin; hopefully I can find a mannequin and dress it in an inappropriate outfit.

I can't wait to see how it turns out!

shocking art

At first my idea was to make a shocking art piece that covered suicide. I wanted to get a head and represent a person shooting themselves and the selfishness of it. I could not find a head, so I have changed my idea to the "modern mom." I hope to find a full woman mannequin, dress her in an expensive looking cocktail dress holding a baby in one hand and a bottle of vodka in the other. I'm really behind on the project so I hope to get it done on time as well. I also finished my piece from the retreat and I'm liking it more and more!
