BFA Portfolio: Week 7

This week was a fun one. I was able to go back to the basics and play around with a big painting. Instead of embracing the flatness, I wanted to add texture. The smaller pieces were experiments of this process, given that I really didn't want to screw up such a large canvas (30"x40"). I really enjoyed the aspect of not knowing what was going to happen. I think I've realized that that's really important to me, because that's how the best things happen. It's really important that I find that language that fully expresses who I am as an artist and individual.

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 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.
