Ringling College Portfolio Day!



me and Muriel, on of my fellow art classmates who went with us

So, I went to the Ringling College of Arts in Sarasota Fl. yesterday. It was a long day. Me, my art teacher and her husband, along with another student went to the college for the portfolio review day. I got a lot of good reviews and ideas from the professors. One Fine Art College wanted me to go to there art program in Tuscany Italy. Sounds pretty cool. Below is a link to the website so you can plan your trip next year. Hope we bump into each other!

Painting in Progress

So, for the National Portfolio Day being held in Sarasota Florida, i figured i needed to finish some of my paintings. Its this coming sunday and soi begant paint.....but its something new instead. I have started another painting thats larger than i am used to doing. I cant wait to finish it for Sunday. You all will get the first look when the time comes.

A New Painting!

No, this is not a newly finished piece, but it is new to the website. It is titled: Silent Ballroom, and is fashioned after the old drawing used to showcase women's clothing in the olden days.  Make sure to rate it below, and comment as well.

Sculpture in Progress

Im working on a new sculpture. Its in its early stages. I just got finished with the cast, it should be neet. mabye it could even grow some herbs while looking awsome. I have thought about making a sculpture with a plant growing out of its extremities, but just havent gotton around to it. Though, i think this project might be the one. Who knows, i dont even know quite yet.

Embracing Our Differnces

We are all so different in this world. To showcase this, my art class got the idea to each decorate a box with images, paintings, and sculptures that represent us, and or the topic of Embracing Our Differences. It was quite convenient considering that there is a contest happening in Sarasota Fl. based on this topic. The winners for the best concept's art will be blown up to a huge billboard in the park.

These are a few of the photos taken today. The final collage will be showcased when finished.

Trees are the Kindest Thing I Know

This is by far my favorite poem ever written.

Trees
by Harry Behn


Trees are the kindest things I know,
They do no harm, they simply grow
And spread a shade for sleepy cows,
And gather birds among their bows.
They give us fruit in leaves above,
And wood to make our houses of,
And leaves to burn on Halloween
And in the Spring new buds of green.
They are first when day's begun
To tough the beams of morning sun,
They are the last to hold the light
When evening changes into night.
And when a moon floats on the sky
They hum a drowsy lullaby
Of sleepy children long ago...
Trees are the kindest things I know.
