Map Relief

48" x  24"

rolled paper w/ gesso 



texture

(in process)

           This map is representative of my trip to France this past summer. The shape is roughly the same as that of France itself, but not exactly. Each individual paper tube is placed in direct relation to the places I visited--the most significant of those places being Paris. The color is representative of the buildings and architecture that are seen throughout France.
          The map itself is made of paper board, shredded paper, black ink, charcoal, and gel medium. The paper circles are made of gesso, wood glue, and rolled paper.

BFA Progress: Week 10

          I stuck with the same small shapes this week, but towards the end modified them a bit. I feel more comfortable working with these shapes, even though they aren't on the canvas. They allow me to connect with my work by holding it in the center of my palm. I would say that I definitely always feel the need to forge a relationship between my small scale-sculptures and myself.

BFA Progress: Week 11

Past Work Current Work                      For this week, I decided to re-photograph all of my previous pieces in a normal setting. I used natural light on the patio but rigged a little "photo booth" area where I can get the most open space/light. I had to tweak the lighting a bit in order to ensure that I got the most vibrancy in the photos.  Definitely liking the direction I've chosen to go. Of course, I do miss painting but these little pieces are so satisfying that they make up for it. I'll more than likely make some paintings on the side to boost my creative process.
