Umm..Don't Be Stupid.

Am I just missing something?? I don't see these as controversial at all. I think they're just very innovative and creative. The Picasso piece and Gustave Klimt portrait don't seem controversial at all. They just look like ordinary pieces of art to me. We've all seen nude paintings before and so what if it doesn't look finished? No one said you HAD to like it. I just don't see what the big deal is.

I would definitely buy that shark piece, it's pretty freaking fantastic. People are just too sensitive and have to find things to complain about.

Althoughhhh...I do think that the last artist is a little awkward, but it's art, it's ok for it to be weird. And just because He mass prodces his art doesn't mean it's a bad thing. Salvador Dali mass produced his signature and sold it to people but no one really complains about him. Honestly people let's grow up.

New semester, Same Ol' Bloggin

1. I have 9 breadth pieces, and only 5 concentration pieces :(
2. I need to work managing my time and brainstorming project ideas. I'm terrible at those 2
3. My favorite time in portfolio was the beginning of the year, because I was caught up on everything and wasn't losing sleep and sanity yet.
4. I learned that I don't really have much of a concentration, because I don't like focusing on just one topic. I like to just do whatever I feel like doing, so I need to work a lot on my concentration this semester
5. I usually just have to be told enough times to do something o get me to do it. Also helping with ideas doesn't hurt. Probably a good idea not to be so lenient, because then I fall even further behind..

Last Blog? I Hope So.

Things I wish I would've done:

  1. Not procrastinated
  2. Slept more.
  3. Worked on inspiring myself
  4. Relaxed more. I don'w work well when i'm stressed out
  5. Motivated myself
  6. Opted for a new student teacher (she was no help and left me uninspired).

My Goals are pretty much to do all the things I wish I would've done this semester. And to make more time for myself.

I think the piece i'm most proud of is my self-portrait. It's not real interesting and doesn't have any real art aspects to it like value, depth, etc. It's my favorite because it means something to me. A lot of my art is based on subjects I like, but this one is more personal and meaningful to me. :)
