Art

I decided to carve a three layer print. It looks odd at first, but as I stamp the layers it really comes out well.

I’ve got my new template up and running. I’m sure I’ll continue to find things I need to tweak and fix on it, but for now I’m pleased with it.

This is my first foray into my own images for a design. Or I should say, it’s the first time I’ve ever used a painting or drawing I did. I really like how it turned out. If you’re curious to know more about why I built this template, check out the About this Site link in the navigation above.

I’m enjoying the drawing part of my class, but the writing part, not so much. Holy cow! I honestly don’t care about what Margaret Kilgallen’s influences were/are. And it’s frustrating that I have to figure something out to write about them.

Edited to Add…

So, I worked on my paper, and after talking with the professor, got some great ideas. I was still stumped for a while, so I made a little pictorial book of her influences. That was what I needed. I ended up with a 9-page paper that I wrote in about an hour. Whew! And it was actually fun to write!

I am drawing my NGPA for a project for my Art class. And to stay inspired, I decided to also try out a challenge from Sue’s site: Out of Border It’s fun!

But this is definitely a start. Thanks, Sue, for the inspiration!
