Almost finished! Well.... not quite.

We are about done with this project.  Well, almost finished with the initial sketches.  Today we got feedback on the 9-12 sketches.  I am having trouble with the function and texture drawings.  I do not know how to show the texture of a whisk or how it is used without being straightforward.  We also worked on our last four types of drawings today.  I am excited for the typographic.  I think that my drawing for that is decent. :)

Photography

I absolutely love photography, even though I can't take a picture to save my life.  One of my favorites is a company called Evoke Images.  Maranda is the woman who did my senior pictures and they turned out fabulously!  Check them out! :)

Comic Relief Readings

I loved the readings, partially because I love to read.  The pictures were interesting and made the readings even more interesting.  It gave me some insight on what drawing is all about and how I should change and improve my drawings.

Sketches - Gestural and Painterly

We worked on our painterly and gestural sketches mostly today and I am already struggling.  I cannot determine the difference between the two.  I just that the rest of the project does not make me struggle this much. :/

Interviews.

I did interviews for the current project and I tried to get simple answers because the design of the hanger is extremely simple.

September 11, 2001

Yesterday I was trying to do homework (particularly BDS work), but I couldn't do anything.  Too much was on my mind. This shall explain it:

Being a designer, I feel that we could do something to help take care of these people in need.  Im not sure what, but I want to figure it out.  Some sort of charity work. Yeah.

Class Reflection

As a group, we combined all our ideas and made the best possible project that we could.  It helped me because I got to bounce my ideas off someone else, and in this case I had two people to bounce my ideas off of.
