It's also raining projects, good, sweet projects. I am going into the second week of my second semester at CCA and I am really happy working (let's hope it carries out throughout the semester!)
There's a big change brewing as i am undecided about my major. Last semester I was working in clay under my ceramics major title. Over Christmas break I realized that was not what made me content, though I did really enjoy it. so as of now I am just having fun for a semester before I decide which major to stick to: ceramics, illustration, or painting/drawing.
I am exploring through a painting 1, illustration 1, and bookmaking 1 class. bookmaking is making me wildly happy so far. I love learning how to actually bind books and am already employing my few print skills from high school to make teeny lino prints for a project.
Below is the beginning stage of a piece I did over my winter break, part of my realization that I missed painting and drawing. Second is an in the process shot of my color chart for my painting class. I wanted to make it fun, so I did a Fibonacci spiral and put circles along it. Lastly, a few of the first teeny prints. I can't wait to work on them more tomorrow!
