End of Concentrations!

Its so weird that we are finally done with our concentrations! I think that the art show was a huge success! so many people came and everyone's stuff looked amazing all put together. we really are in the home stretch of the year! graduation and summer are so close. i am also supaaah excited for the service project! working in groups (and on something other that concentrations) will be such a nice change of pace! yay!

April #2

i was going to post pictures of what i have so far for this month...but i hate it so im restarting. cool. i dont know how i am going to make two new pieces in time for friday, but oh well. i spent some time looking at all my stuff together and i think i need to do more with photo transfers. i only have one and it sticks out like a sore thumb. also i am trying this month to really remember the principles of design. OH and i really want to incorporate newspaper into one...not for any real reason other than i think it would be cool...so thats as far as i am so far. but wow fourth quarter! yay graduating, except i still need to pick a college...ugh.

APRIL

i am SO excited to almost be done with concentration checks! i feel like after the April concentration check we will be SO close to the end of the year and graduating! yayay!

March concentration

i started my march concentration pieces...i accidentally burned the board and it bubbled up so that kind of stood in the way of my plans so i will have to see how that turns out and then for the other piece i want to do another photo transfer because i really like the way that my Feb. piece came out. i haven't picked what photo i want to do, but i think i need to do more to tie that into the whole thing.

WOW

i think it is safe to say that i am OUT of ideas for my concentration.
i have only done one piece for feb so far and am getting a little stressed out. i started work on the second piece with photo transfers and it was a big FAIL but i am going to try again and hopefully everything will work out!
i hate snow and am really excited because i leave for mexico this week...hopefully i will generate some ideas while im gone!

Feb...pictures

wow i cant believe the month is half over! i am not even close to halfway on my concentration pieces...i think i want to play with photo transfers and bringing that into my work this month. the family has been looking through a lot of family pictures lately gathering them for senior activities and my family just made me a scrap book and all wrote me letters about going to college so im in a fat family love mood...maybe a piece with me and my brothers? who knowssss....

Jan Concentration Pieces #2

So after finishing the yellow piece for my January Concentration check, I decided I hated it...So i changed it. If you comment on my pieces please look at this piece instead of the yellow one in the previous update!
thanks!

Look at it side ways...turn 90 degrees counterclockwise...

Jan. Concentration Pieces

i took these pictures on my phone and they are really bad....

This one is Pattern




This one is suppose to be LINE...there is a bunch of string and stuff that you can't see...so since it photographs SO badly i will probably need to rework this one...

January

i am so excited for this semester to be over...only a few more months until graduation! wooo!
but i still have lots of stuff to get done...like concentration pieces.
this month i am doing pattern in one of pieces using circles and the other piece hasnt been started yet but i think im going to do line and use string because i havent used anything but wax in my pieces so far. im pretty excited about the string thing.
after we turn in these two concentration pieces we will be half-way  on our concentrations! wooooooo!

10...9 times

im soooo excited to go back to school. i am glad to say that i have all my pictures taken AND my concentration pieces done. it is safe to say that this is the first time all year i have been on top of art! i think this is a good sign for 2011!
