How sophmoric

Here is a sampling of my sketchbook work

Well, I finished fall of my sophomore year and I took two studios: anatomy and printmaking. I had a rocky start to the semester but I'm content on how everything turned out; this semester I definitely learned a lot of things not to do. But then I said arrivederci to St. Louis because my spring semester will be in Florence, Italy!

I leave in just one week and I'm excited to make some kickass art and breathe in all of the incredible art history. I will try to blog from Italy, but knowing me that seems a bit unlikely. But eventually I will update. I promise. Ciao!

Printmaking and the Built Environment

Project: Build a fort
            
Unfortunately the content of the fort is partially lost within these pictures because part of the concept that the interior is dark and requires a flashlight. Silkscreen, Linocut relief, fabric, clay, thread and wood.

Project: Dystopia/Utopia

What if the world's fair was to return to St. Louis in 2012? Here's a little extra info about the world's fair, for those of you who aren't St. Louis-ians http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louisiana_Purchase_Exposition
