Turning Back Time Every act of creation is first an act of destruction
I Should Have Yearning to erase the past and the future; regrets and worry
Strengths -Creating a concept that I connected and was committed to -Creating a dialogue within the artwork and outside the artwork -Utilizing materials as metaphors -Listening to the artwork
Weaknesses -Not having enough trials (to my standards) -Not being confident enough in my design choices
Figure Drawing
Tension between mark and form Containing Anxiety
Strengths -Listening to the pose -Proportions -Allowing my energy to be exposed in my artwork -Creating expressive marks
Weaknesses -Not always knowing when to stop, which eventually kills the artwork -Focusing too much on one area which leaves other areas without enough love
Breakthrough/Connection Then, Trying to creating perfect symmetry- causing visual tension Now, Creating tension through experience, mark, and being real
Conclusion Looking back on this past semester, my goals for this current semester are to sketch out lots of trials, work on figuring out when to stop, and listen to my intuitive side more. I plan to make art that I am connected with and can back up my decision choices in a confident manner.
