It's a love/hate thing here in printmaking land...
My printmaking class is a combination of printmaking 1-3 as well as graduate students. As you can imagine this means that the lab is crazy packed a lot of the time…meaning during every single class there are at least 20 people in here at a time.
I have a hard enough time focusing as it is and when there are so many people all over the place I feel the strongest urge to just leave and come...

Am I the only one...
Am I the only one who only just realized that the Charlotte Sometimes on The Voice is the same as the recording artist of the album Waves and the Both of Us?
I was just super confused…shows how much I pay attention.
I feel like a dork now…I downloaded her album way back in 2008.
Strange little world, eh?

Like a Bee I Tell You!
I am going to be so very busy in the following weeks…though I actually doubt I won’t stop being busy even when summer comes around.
I need to begin working on my book for my photo class. I will be doing self-portrait nudes (of all things) because my professor really liked my last project that centered around that very topic. I had originally planned to take photos of other people...

OMG I know it's not the healthiest yogurt but it...
Out of the only four flavors I can find in this town so far I only like the lemon and coconut. I tried the blackberry, and I don’t want to try the fig date one. Soooo nommy!
Did I mention I am really picky when it comes to yogurt. Considering I wouldn’t eat even a spoonful of the stuff until I tried Liberte…so, progress?

The Big Reveal...
I mean big. As in large. As in I am a massive human being.
I am processing my film today. One roll of me and one of other nonsense.
I am somewhat apprehensive about seeing what I come up with. I hope they turn out well.
I kind of want to surprise and disturb my class.
hmmmm, lalala

About that ask I just answered...
link to ask here
I was ambivalent about posting it because in responding, regardless of the response, it gives a sense of accomplishment to the person “asking” it.
I have no qualms about my body image, self-confidence, or self-esteem and therefor I’m not responding in order to battle that asinine topic.
Instead I provided a snarky and sarcastic remark. I refrained from...

Lithography
I love this process the most out of all of the printmaking processes that I’ve been introduced to thus far.
I can be my sketchy weird self and not worry about how it gets cut out of a block of wood, carved out of sintra, or scratched out of copper (among others).
My first etch is finished and I’m going to let my stone sit overnight to set. I’ve decided not to push this...

I am a Creeper
I’m totally watching my printmaking professor as she is analyzing her work. She keeps looking at it from different angles matched with the occasional sigh and re-arranging of position.
I am finding this strangely amusing. It’s like peeking into the life of another person.
Then again, even though I found out that the teachers don’t sleep at school in the first grade I still...

How far are you willing to go for your art?
How personal are you willing to get?
I’m asking myself these questions today.
Generally I feel completely confident in producing art with almost any subject matter. I let myself be seen in all of its strange and peculiar facets. However, I do not portray my physical self.
I am willing to take nude photos of other people, photos of people in compromising positions, and hyperbolize...

SGCI is only a few weeks away...
I have absolutely no life until after spring break…at least that is what I feel like. Though,…I kind of don’t do anything anyway.

I have one more lab day to complete my photography assignments. I need to shoot a roll before Tuesday so that I can process and print it. I need to have three sketch prints for each of the two assignments plus three complete prints for...

Le Grand Bal
Sooooo, I put a piece up for auction in Le Grand Bal. “What is Le Grand Bal?” you ask. I will tell you.
Le Grand Bal is an annual art auction at my university that seeks to raise money for scholarships and undergraduate research funds through a fancy pants art auction. The artist gets 60% of each sale.
My procrastinating ass decided to put in work last minute so I only entered...
