Final Notes for Last Project

I enojoyed making this art work sooooooo much. I loved the fact I was making it for my boyfriend because I don't know how I would survive UNCC without him. I felt that my piece being in a frame looked like one of the most complete pieces out of the critique on Monday. But then again I know that I have had trouble with people thinking my art looks crafty but I have come to the conclusion that I don't care. I feel the art and that's what comes out so I don't care what anyone says I am going to continue doing what I do.

I had never thought of making any clothing before this project but now I am seriously considering working with fabric. This piece felt very fluid when making it. I didn't get snagged on any details of the concept. It was a start and finish all in one sitting and that was fabulous. I love this piece and will be making more.

Project Notes for Final Project

I decided very early on that I wanted to make a piece for David, my boyfriend. He is a major inspiration in my life and keeps me going when I feel my creativity is running dry. I also wanted to incorporate the materials and odds and ends I picked up and used from my first semester at UNCC. I feel at need to use and reuse everything I can to save and conserve so I used my palettes and wax paper with paint on them in my piece.

Materials
1.cardstock
2. scrapbooking paper
3. peeled paint
4. wax paper with paint
5. fortunes from a fortune cookie
6. lock from $.50 prize machine at grocery store
