I made a JFK figure this week, a hot dog vendor man, a bus stop sign thing and another U-Bahn entrance; I glued down my TV tower, some of the area under the bridge and some more grassy areas.
I had the reassuring moment this past week that *shock* I am going to finish my project. It's not because "things just turned out that way" either. It's because I've been working around the clock, literally working on my project every day to ensure it gets done, and this hard work has paid off. Thank God.
Utilization of time:
Cutting, assembling and gluing things: 30ish hours *I also found a really interesting pattern from a magazine that I am going to use for one grass area that I scanned, finessed in Photoshop and printed. This took about an hour or so.
I'm glad you're seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. Awesome. I know it's going to be great.
ReplyDeleteI also just want to reiterate some of the things I said on Thursday about Elizabeth Murray's compositional decisions- I think it would be so helpful for you to spend some time looking at her work (http://www.artnet.com/artwork/425071909/untitled.html) and see how she animates the surrounding space, by breaking up the overall shape of her form. If you used velcro on pieces of your map, this would be an easy solution to manipulating the overall shape of your map.
Let me know what you think-amanda
