Demo Day! Strings and Stencil!

Demo Day: Tools and Maintaining them

Grey is my saving grace.

 This girl is one of the main reasons I decided to take Metals. I was terrified and a painter and not into sculptural arts whatsoever and she convinced me to take Metals 1 with her. Now we're in Metals 3 together and getting to see her smile is why I decided to even consider an 8am my senior year final semester.

All these tips have been really helpful in all of our work time.
Everything is very spelled out and written down which is really nice.

First Day of Enameling

For some reason, Enameling is the hardest word for me to say outloud.

I've got a few ideas- I think I'd really like to work with reclaimed materials because I'm all about being sustainable if possible. I also really love the idea of rustic pieces and processes that are a bit rougher.

I would also like to focus on the idea of making the entire semester's works part of the same collection. I need to focus and wittle down ideas making things a bit simpler and cleaner. I think that I'd really like to play off of an idea I've had for a collection for a long time- I really want to use light and color to create spaces. I don't want to make separate trinkets anymore. I want to make some kind of wearable "space" that invokes the senses and plays with the color in the space and the world that surrounds it. Who knows if it's possible. We'll see!
