So slack…

I have been playing with other art forms and not really doing my assignments so I am very bad. but halloween is coming up and I have a good kitchen again so I am getting back into cake and cookie decorating and baking and I am sewing my costume too. after halloween I will definitely be getting back into my assignments!I promisewhy are you looking at me like that?I have to!

Assignments again…

I have been slack while we have been settling in and I have also been playing with some of my other favorite art forms, namely cooking and sewing. but I need to get going on my assignments so here is the first one. the assignment was to research artists who use multiples in some way.…

Reworked

I forgot that I haven’t put up the reworked images that I did for the last folio. they are much better so I feel they deserve a look in. I felt like such an idiot worrying about a white on white still life when my computer table, monitor and computer already made up one! mark…

WAAH!

between the internet, foxtel and phone and the multiple moronic telstra people I had to deal with I am about ready to cry!the plan was that the foxtel guy would install the port for the internet at the same time as the foxtel port…. I spent over an hour on the day being shunted between departments while they all told me that they couldn’t issue the work order, and no he cant do that kind of work and why would someone tell me he could?… but at least I have a net connection!then there was the phone line.the previous owners installed an optus port and spack fillered over the old telstra port.

Moving Right Along

It has been a crazy few days with my 10 year reunion, assignments and crazy packing and real estate bodgyness. I have finished all my assignments but I still haven’t sent off my folio so I am kbitzing over my net connection in the new place. Will get back to normal programming soon – I promise!

Phew!

it is very physically intensive no matter what you do so I am very tired now.I feel they let down some of my other assignments so I will take the next couple of days to fix them up – then I can set up my folio with impugnity…. they say they will have the internet up by then but I want to make sure I have allowed for telstra inefficiency and potential network issues (theoretically it should be as easy as reconnecting the router, modem and computers but where networking is considered nothing is set in stone)…. then I need to refine my diary, re-photograph all my works and visual diary and get the presentations together.That isn’t too much to do in two days…

late night rant.

it would probably be better if I didn’t have a lot of the house packed up.. then I could find better implements…I know it is supposed to be out of our comfort zones but sheesh.okok I was actually doing well until I found out that I needed a completely different subject, I was working off the wrong excersise.erg…. and about ten tries.I am going to have a scotch and go to bed now.

Chop This!

That is the nominal title of this because that was what I kept thinking as I drew it. We had to pick a small object (or objects) and make it seem large. That way we examined what makes something appear huge. I figured that foreshortening and a submissive angle on the part of the viewer…

Cityscapes

Or tone and scale… This is a cityscape I did as part of an assignment in tone and scale. We were required to do this in a set order and manner (although the subject matter was our choice) we needed a landscape with a fore, middle and back ground and started with a page covered…

Busy Busy

I have been working frantically on my coursework. I have quite a bit due in just over a week. I have it almost in hand now but I am stressed still. The last projects were on Tone with a couple of collages. It turns out that collages are not a strong point. And do you…
