Tonight I took some pictures.

Since I’m done with art classes, I kind of threw all rules out the window.  Blurry photos, none of them planned or thought out, no reason, just for the sake of taking some pictures.

This is something I made to go along with what I made for day 15.  I still don’t think it’s a finished series yet, and I’m planning to make another few pieces to go along with it.  Once I’m done I’ll show all of it together.
Here’s a detail:

AMANDA.  Don’t look!!
I made this for my friend Amanda, whose birthday is tomorrow (Happy Birthday Amanda!)  She’s been asking me since we met to make her a painting, so I added some paint to it to make it count.  I didn’t take the picture, I just stole it from facebook… it’s her and her boyfriend [...]

Day 15… wow.  I’ve made it halfway through.  Is anybody else shocked?
Today’s project was visually inspired in some ways by Escape.  I approached it in the same way that I did that project without really knowing what the outcome would be.  I am planning for this piece to be part of a series, because I’m [...]

Hope everyone had a good weekend!

I’ve been doing a lot of photo transfers lately, and Leiah asked me how I do them- so I decided to make a tutorial.  One of my teachers showed us a couple ways to do them in one of my classes last semester and it is by no means perfect… I’m sure there are more [...]

Another photo transfer.  This one was done in layers, and then I added some paint to it.  I took photos of the last layer I did (the letters) so I’ll explain how I do it in my next post.

Today I cheated a little.  Instead of going out and taking some pictures TODAY I used old pictures that I’ve taken…  but I’ve wanted to do something with these pretend polaroids for a while, so now I finally have.  When I was printing them out I was planning to put them into a blank sample [...]

Today I got the idea to print out a photograph of each of the projects I do this month and put it together into a little mini book.  I think it’d be a nice way to document the projects in a tangible form.  Soo today I got to work designing the book… the cover, the [...]
