Was excited that my artshow finally came to an end this past week. It was wonderful to see so many students out and their parents. With that said, I was able to get back to the grind for grad work. I have attached my most recent work. I have started another piece which I hope to complete fully over the break. It is an area on South Ave in Rochester of a bike sculpture. I am contemplating leaving areas empty like Lindsay B. mentioned in one of her comments.
Tomorrow, I will be going out to complete some more research and take more pictures around the neighborhoods I teach. I am hoping to find a few more inspiring pieces that I can juxtapose with the bike sculpture. I am not happy with any of the images I have already taken to pair with the work. As for now, I hope to finish the Pan Pastel by the end of the week.
Melissa,
You r work is so recognizable and distinct. I really love this piece, it is very refreshing and has alot of breadth to it!
Interesting– why did you chose a work of art as your subject in this piece?
Andrea, I was experimenting with combining two different forms of visual culture on South Ave; Still playing around with the idea of working with opposites; just opposite forms of visual culture in the sense of 2D versus 3D.
