While Waiting for Bronwen....

I was very tempted to make this post about how busy I am, but decided against it because it might make anyone else reading this extremely aware of their huge list of responsibilities. So I won't.

INSTEAD, I'll tell you about an art project I'm doing through the Projects in Contemporary Art, except it's more like an independent study that will take me the whole year. Inspired by One World Day, (I did mention it briefly in that post) I'll be creating 8-10 portraits and the point is to show a spectrum, that the classic views of man and woman aren't the only genders, and that even terms "man" and "woman" don't capture all that there is out there. Basically, that lines are very blurred, and I'm going to use this blur to create art. The portraits will be based off of photos I take, and I plan to explore a whole bunch of different types of art media including photography, painting, collage, drawing, printmaking, more, and mixtures of all of those.
The main point is to confuse and then intrigue, and show how it's all beautiful. Seems pretty vague now, but I'll take pictures of my ideas and will document the process on this blog. EXCITING! I already have one set of pictures. It's just too difficult to explain. I might not say anything about it after this and just let you see the images.

Another exciting thing, putting together my writing portfolio. ..oh, the college process.
On that note, I took the SAT at the neighborhood public high school and walked there, taking pictures and going over vocabulary that actually came up on the test. NICE.
