College Life, Take One
Here I am, procrastinating a paper and watching House, M.D. with my darling roommate. It’s nearing the end of the semester; that means finals, high stress, and a desire only for sleeping. I haven’t had a whole lot of time for fiber work this week besides the six hours I spent in class Monday night half threading my class loom. I did start threading my (at home) loom after a dramatic few days of untangling warp and un-knotting strings, but alas, school is finally starting to take precedence.
Woe is me, I can never do a self portrait with accurate likeness; the right figure is more convincing, and has better lighting, but the right figure is probably a better likeness. For my Life Drawing class, vine charcoal with white acrylic. This one is better:
Just thought I’d post some (other) work since I’m not doing a lot of fiber work right now.
I do plan on finishing the threading of both my looms this weekend, and hopefully I can start the pick-up project before the actual class on Monday. My last in-class work day is December 1st, with the final due the following week, but I want to have it done before the 3rd so I can take it to a high school observation for one of my teaching classes. We’re going to have a nice critique and experience sharing session with the students, and I thought it would be interesting for the students to see something that is less traditional coming from work in the fine arts tradition. Hopefully it will make for an interesting discussion.
