Life Installed Exhibit at BSU


School is finally overwith. The final class project for 3-D art was to install a museum collection that could be either something real or something fictional. I worked with another student on a collection about the four basic types of weaving, with lots of colorful examples. The display looks fabulous and very professional. This exhibit is called "Life Installed" and there's a total of 12 different collections. They are currently on display at the Liberal Arts Building at BSU until December 17th.
I am in a wierd state of transition--the holiday break. I don't have any classes now until January 20th. I have more free time than I know what to do with. This is the time when I wish I had a job!

Last Week of Classes And A New Marketing Venture

This week I will be helping to install an exhibit at the Liberal Arts Building at BSU. My 3-D art class will be hanging their museum collection projects Tuesday and Thursday. I am working with another classmate, helping to install a project about weaving. I am doing the text and cutting the black mats. So that is my goal Monday, to have all this ready to hang up Tuesday. My partner is in charge of the weaving samples and the large banner, and since she is the weaving expert, she did most of the planning. This is much easier than having to do a project all by myself.

Also, I have four more ceramic pieces to paint or glaze, then I have to turn in my synopsis of all my ceramic work for the semester. And then I'm done with that class as well.

This week I am starting a new marketing venture. I am going to start selling my art online via ecommerce. I was able to network with a local business person who has his own online store and wants to sell art and crafts made by local people like me. I am going to sell my art through an online store called After Midnight Design. The website is shop.aftermidnightdesign.net.
