Final Project, Final Post
November 27th, 2012 by courtr
With this project, I really wanted it to be something beyond what it looked like, almost like something hidden within my image. I think I really achieved that by making my patterns out of actual chemical element compound structures. I started with a science background in school and once I switched to art there were […]

Mid-Point Review
November 13th, 2012 by courtr
So far this is solid and liquid. I would like to use water for all since it occurs on Earth in 3 out of 4 states. Except, water isn’t that interesting of a chemical model, so that’s why I am using coal and litnid right now. This is the general look that I would like […]

Final Project Contract
October 25th, 2012 by courtr
For the final project, I would like to create a body of work based on the four states of matter. They are Solid, Liquid, Gas and Plasma. These images will be digital collages and will deal with scanned images, photography and textures. There will be four (4) images, one for each state of matter. Possibly […]

Project 3 End
October 25th, 2012 by courtr
I was really excited to do this project because I thought it would be a fun experiment of traditional processes that I do not usually do. My in class transferring demos came out well so that made me even more excited that my digital texture collages would transfer well too. My plan was to use […]

P3 Update
October 16th, 2012 by courtr
On Thursday I worked from home because that was where my materials were. When printing on silk jet, the ink takes awhile to dry which was an inconvenience. When printing my textures on wood, I struggled finding the right amount of sanitizer to use to get a good transfer. My collages looked either smeared (too […]

Project 3
October 16th, 2012 by courtr
*** I thought I had posted this last Thursday and just checked it now and realized it hadn’t. Since my initial idea did not go over very well, I decided to play more with my layered texture collages. My goal is to turn these into a mixed media project ontop of the alternative printing. Instead […]

Project 3 Plan

My goal for this project is to create useable art that can be used on a daily basis. My plan is to print on canvas, fabric and wood. In addition to this, I would also like to try and incorporate some other media on top of the printed images. The goal would be to create […]

Project 2 Final
September 25th, 2012 by courtr
With this project, I tried to do something different from the normal narrative. That ended up being more of a “process” instead of a story. I do like that because it was not the standard approach to this project. The technical goal for this project was to incorporate more digital painting into my collages and […]

Project Update
September 20th, 2012 by courtr
Here is my project. This is going to be one print divided up into multiple prints….I just haven’t figured out the best way to do that. I am very happy with my sunflowers, but I am not at all happy with the stem. I definitely need to work on that. I didn’t print this because […]

Sick
September 19th, 2012 by courtr
On Monday and Tuesday of this week I had a terrible bout with stomach flu :(. I tried my best to come to class to make the critique, but I couldn’t even make it out of my house under my own power, let alone to campus.

http://kelseychristoffels.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/picture-0162.jpg?w=580&h=420 This is the look I want. I just need to figure out the “story” that I am telling. I don’t want characters, I almost want to show a process instead of a story. I’m getting so frustrated!

Project 2, Part 1
September 4th, 2012 by courtr
Like I said before, I would really like to design my project with the basis that it can be displayed on a wall in a home. I love artwork that stretches on multiple canvases, so I’d like to try and do that with this project. Basically my project would consist of a large main image […]

Project One, Part Two
August 27th, 2012 by courtr
My focus right now in imaging is collaging making textures or many abstract images. I would like to incorporate digital painting into my work, that way I will have some experience with that technique. I enjoy the work of these artists: http://eydilampasona.com/ – Eydi’s work reminds me of my own, except she uses mixed media […]
