Fall Break

The break is Fall and Fall is broken. School is out until Monday. Both my roommates have gone home and so I reign supreme within my apartment, free to do . . . everything I usually do just without people watching. Really, I'm already bored.

Midterms have come and gone with fairly good grades, of which I have no complaints. My graphic design teacher said I needed to be edgier in my artwork, and in Print Making he said I needed to be looser, less precise, as the medium (lino cut) isn't suited for precision. Here's some examples of my work.

I know, flowers, boring. Give me a break, I was sick and creatively stifled. I'm reworking the plates, so expect great things.

I think orange slices are my new thing. I have a few shapes and objects I use a lot, including webbing and paper fans. Orange slices just got added to the list.

In other news, I had the flu and it hit me real hard. Missed a lot of class, but I caught up with all of it and my absences were excused. All absences due to flu-like symptoms of excused since the swine flu/H1N1 scare is still in effect. Lucky me.

My previously mentioned project (the painted series, The Grim Tea Party) is progressing very nicely and I should have photos of the works in progress by tomorrow or the day after. I keep forgetting to bring a camera up to the painting classroom.
