BFA Portfolio: Week 6

I had decided that it was time to change my concept of painting. Adding to the canvas -- or extending it -- seemed like an optimal idea. I actually liked the way it turned out because it's definitely different from my normal pieces. I felt that this particular week wasn't filled with much progress, but when seeing everything together and how vastly different it is from past weeks, I felt a little better. I tried my hand at stitching, but it didn't work out as planned. I've come to realize that I'm the opposite of patient and stitching requires that and then some. I played around a little more with the air dry porcelain because I've only ever dried them on baking paper. To remove that, I hung the clay around yarn and they dried more like bone. You could even see some of the yarn through the porcelain.

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 12

For this week, I tried my best to photograph in different ways. I used the same set-up, however I wanted to know what grouping them more closely would look like. I enjoy both equally, but in order to get better images for the website, I figured getting more in one shot would be more helpful. I will probably have to re-photograph a majority of these as these photos were mainly grouped by when I made them so I could keep track of the work I'd already posted.
