(Better image to come)Anyway, Janie, Erica, Amanda, Chrissy, Betsy and Alyssa came to my apartment today and had really positive things to say about my project (which, at this point, is really what I want to hear!). There are a few alterations I am going to make after receiving some feedback about specific [minor] problem areas:
1. Change smoke cloud--totally agree and my solution to this is using only one layer of vellum to create a smaller smoke cloud that has a more "smoke-like" shape.
2. Glue the fan card (near my signature in the bottom left corner) back a little bit so that it's not leaning so far away.
3. Put an itty bitty tree/trash can/something in the green area under the bridge in the bottom right corner just to break up the space a little bit.
4. Make one more person to stand in the hot dog line and a little kid peeking over the fruit stand (these suggestions were not made to me but this is something I want to do).
Thanks again to all who came today! I'm really excited for everyone to see the completed work in *hopefully* Slusser. I am going to attach it to the wall with square L hooks.
Congratulations to you, Laura. What a long, hard trip it's been over the last 8 months. Nevertheless, you've created a great, great piece of art that is as thoughtful as it is evocative. Thanks for letting me be a part of its progress via this wonderful blog.
