This week I prepared to do another concentration work and took a bunch of long exposure photos. I want to draw over one or two of the photographs words like I planned to before and I plan on doing it on warnings that women hear often. I haven't chosen specifically what photos just yet.

For observation I drew the scene in front of me at my desk, pretty boring. I went to Raleigh, North Carolina, Hilton Head, South Carolina, and Savannah, Georgia. I took way too many photos. I really liked the ones of the yellow stairs in the hunt library at NC State. NC State also had set up a political art piece that was about gun control in memorial to all of those lost recently to gun violence. They also had a free expression tunnel created to combat graffiti on campus during the Vietnam war. There's one photo of the end of the tunnel in there. I also just took photos of art all throughout SCAD's campus.
I have been gathering photos with mirrors for the past few days because I think that's what the focus of my next project is going to consist of. I've been wanting to do something like this for pretty much the whole year I just need a better understanding of exactly what and I need to buy a mirror that I can break. I also did my reflection packet for my last project. For observation I did a little mashup of 2 different observations from pictures on pinterest and one just rough one of my hand.
This week I went to two concerts actually and took and edited some really cool photos I thought. I think my favorite out of the concert photos would be the last two uploaded. I didn't edit the colors just the brightness, darkness, and clarity. The first two photos I uploaded are a little different. The first is a photo I forgot to upload from over break and wanted to include because I thought it was so cool. It's from a few different colored lights and that's a shadow from all of the lights places in a different place. I have a few more of these but that one was the most successful, I think. The blue is actually just an overexposed picture of an Easter egg dye pod dissolving in a mug. I really liked it overexposed, it kinda looked like a cyanotype. For observation I just drew over a photo of Marin.
This week over break I finished my poster for the March For Our lives, the hearts in it I drew from a photograph. On top of that I took many photos at the march which I edited and I planned on making another breadth piece with. I will come back to them after I finish this concentration piece because I think I need to direct my focus back to them and the one I left. I loved a lot of the photos I took, I'm thinking I might draw over somebodies face like I posted on a previous sketchbook.
