BFA Portfolio: Week 4

I was given scraps of leather from the previous class and wanted to turn them into something that could be seen as tribal. The feel and durability of leather is something that is very important to me because it withstands the test of time. Suede in particular is by far my favorite because of its soft texture. It's reminiscent of the fibers in a way because I deliberately choose things that are soft to the touch. This week was a turning point for me when it came to realizing why I love and am so drawn to textiles and fibers. I worked on making the air dry porcelain a big bigger, and extended the length on the pieces. I was too nervous to bring it to the floor in fear of tangling, but now this seems to be an eventuality that is hard to avoid given its storage.

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.

BFA Progress: Week 13

For this week, I re-photographed my littles beans and used Lightroom to tweak the lighting in most of them. I tried my best with help from my friend that has experience with it. I grouped them based on color and shape, as well as other characteristics.
