WOAAAA

So our latest Work of Art Project was due last week. It was definitely an open-ended prompt. Unfortunately I procrastinated a LITTLE too much. Looking back, I really like the idea I came up with, but it was not executed very well-- definitely not one of my best pieces. But I thought I would put it up here anyways. The prompt was simply "to use text and numbers". Since I rarely use either in my art, I chose to really emphasize them. I picked a quote that I love (yay Beatles!!) and this is what I came up with....

Harry Potter Midnight Premiere!

Guess what's happening this Friday morning! That's right! The Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (part 1) midnight premiere! Woohoo! I can't even express how excited I am. I have grown up with the HP books and movies. I honestly wish that I could attend Hogwarts, even if it meant risking my life fighting against basilisks, dementors, deatheaters, Professor Umbridge, or yes, even Voldemort. So this Thursday night, I will be anxiously awaiting the 12:05 Friday showing in a crowd outside of Bridgeport. I'll send you off with this illuminating quote: "It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities"-Albus Dumbledore (the greatest wizard of all time).

Open Studio

Last Friday was the last day of the Quarter. We didn't have school because it was a teacher grading day. However, I ended up spending a good seven hours in the art room. From 9AM to almost 5PM, with a brief lunch break somewhere in the middle. I finally finished my self-portrait (just in time for the grading period). It was so satisfying! I will post pictures soon!
