Let it snow Let it snow Let it snow~

Hello snowy world!

What a winter wonderland it is out there, and before christmas break none the less! And no I'm not in Pullman either! I've gone home for the thanksgiving break to spend some time with my family. Which also means I will not be able to screenprint my project, but a great thing about me is that once I'm back I will be in full work mode! Nothing to distract me nothing, besides my gorgeous boyfriend, and nothing to keep me from finishing the whole project the week I return to school!

Let's just hope my luck is good and WSU keeps the school open, which they will. They aren't bothered by a bit of snow. (dang) hehehehe


So my update for this week: I'm working on my Advanced Photography final project, which will turn out super neat if I am able to pull it off. The project objective for this week is to shoot macro images of organic plants in which I will turn into "houses" for bugs and other creatures.
I get my new computer this week, a big 27" mac desktop to work hi-deph images using photoshop.

I just hope I'll be able to work well in the snow... we've got 3 inches and counting in 2 days. and I have to shoot outside? This shall be interesting.

 The image on top was the weather outside of my mom's houses' sliding glass door last night. The image just below it was what I woke up to this morning! It tapped out to about 4 inches in the bottom image.
To see the snow level growth look at the bottom of each where the railing ends... cool!!!



Well everyone stay safe, keep warm, and don't travel in this weather unless you have to.

Designing, Doing, and being Productive

Hello again World,

I would like to start out saying that my back is feeling better as of my last post, I still don't know exactly why I still have back pain but I'm glad it's not as bad as the first week. This week I was able to continue back to my Screenprinting project, and I'll tell you I'm eager to start seeing it come together!

This post will mainly be filled with images of my progress from this week.

This is me cutting pieces for the poster. Oh I should probably post to you my idea sketches, so you know what the heck I'm actually doing.

 Rough Sketch 1: Unused but useful ideas

 This is where I thought about having a box to put the words inside.

These are the Real final sketches for my Idea:

 Below: a re-visited sketch to add more to define the idea.

 Below: This is a sample of the first image (in this blog) with what I was cutting up. Each block will have a word screenprinted upon it. Underneath each block of word on the 1st layer will be a colorful and colorful design screenprinted white paper layer, which I will adhesive to the matt board.

Also each block will have velcro attached to the back so the viewer will be able to unattach any word at will and place it inside the blank spot.

Below: in this blank spot will be posted a direct screenprinted extra layer that I will leave the background black so the piece will pop.

That's all for now folks! I'm currently being kidnapped by my friend to go play Lego Harry Potter. I'll keep you informed with other information that I develop.

Later World!
