Semester Three

Sat Sep 26, 2009, 11:02 PM
Hey. How is everyone doing? It's 2:18 am and I just feel compelled to write. Here.

Sophomore year is a different game. Artistically speaking, assignments are now actually relevant to my future career. I am horrified, relieved, constantly fascinated and restless.

The quote that plagues me as of late:

"I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who overcomes his enemies, for the hardest victory is the victory over self." - Aristotle

The new dynamic this year is bringing into my life- a focus on work, health, and trying to balance out time with friends scattered in apartments and dorms- leaves me with a hurried sense of accomplishment that isn't always fulfilling enough. Something integral seems to be missing, and I think I've pinpointed the issue but it seems ridiculous. Amazing how the more you think about yourself the less you understand.

I will upload a slew of drawings eventually. My new classes will have me painting, focusing on the human figure, portraits and working digitally. I am trying to make sketching a habitual thing. Right now, I just need to eat and slip into sleep.

  • Mood: Peaceful
  • Listening to: Train, Weezer, Imogen Heap, The Acorn

Thanks so much for the comment! I'm happy you came to see the senior work. :)

What major are you looking into? MassArt was my dream school, so I'm always happy to see such beautiful artwork coming from students.

Keep it up!

Thanks! Loving the school so far, so to hear that from a recent graduate means a lot! :)

I choose Illustration after quite a bit of thought. The first year for me seemed to focus more on concepts in art than helping us choose a major- and to top it off I got placed in Conceptual Drawing for an elective. I considered Graphic Design and even Metals recently, but I can't see myself being as driven in either field.

Zeh! ^___^

Yay Illustration! The major/classes itself can sometimes be frustrating, and you may not agree with everything your teachers say, but as long as you're pushing yourself and taking suggestions from all sides, you'll do great!

I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend taking Mark Reusch as a teacher as many times as you can.

Best of luck! Let me know if you ever need some advice/critique! :)
