Day Thirtyfour

2D Pattern Design was the order for the day. Very happy right now. I got everything I have done over the last weeks printed (Thank you Liz for the aid of your printer!!) and we put the good stuff onto some worksheets, I will have two A1 worksheets and 4 A2 worksheets, and the rest is going into my scrapbook. I was told well done by Rachael so I think I've done a good job so far. All I need to do now is bring in my hand drawn patterns and the dyed cotton we did to add to the worksheets and finish off my scrapbook. Feeling good about this right now.

I left early so I could come home and finish off my Art History essay and have been staring at the words on the screen for quite some time before giving up. I have done about 500 words so far and most of those are not mine so need to be either re-written or quoted. Joy.

Day Twentyeight

Today we talked about our Historical Movements in the Arts essay and that what we really needed to do, rather than talk about the whole bloody movement, was pick an artist from one movement along with one of their paintings, and then pick another artist from a different movement and one of their pieces, and review, evaluate, compare, etc. Simples!
Now to figure out which artists and which paintings...

I'm currently think about Michelangelo Buonarroti's Damned Soul Descending into Hell

Correggio's Leda and the Swan

Or Domenico Fetti's Melancholy

So many wonderful paintings to choose from and so many very talented artists!
