By the end of today i think most people's work was pretty much ready to either go up, or was up and looking good! I spent the day hammering nails into my wall for my pieces to balance onto! it was quite a feat! I over ran my personal deadline, but i think i did well to do it in the time i did it in! I will have to repaint my wall...which until my grubby hands got to it was spotless and looking really great. We had to take out the clem clamps from between my boards and squish them together with some bracing behind them, as the clamps and tape joining the boards were just to distracting, and it wouldn't have done my work much justice, so it has been polly filled to an inch of it's life, and the gap at the end filled with a strip of wood and some builder's chalk...which turns out to be quite handy stuff! So here's a taster of what i've been dealing with for the last couple of days...
Working out the different compositions was quite a difficult one with so much to choose from...but then since my piece was doubled in length because i was given two boards i didn't have as many spare, but i had enough to mess around with, and also to replace the ones i might have accidentally stood on... oops...
I'm looking forward to getting the painting done tomorrow so that the space is perfect. I am also really excited about guillotining my A3 pages to fit into my folio for my portfolio! I hope it looks as fab as i'm hoping it will! i have some really nice images in it to really show off my work, so i'm looking forward to seeing it all together, and getting it in along with my other project tomorrow at 4...Scary stuff! Everyone else is exclaiming at how they don't know what they're going to do with themselves after this is all over...i wish i could say the same thing...my dissertation is really dragging me down, i have to get this silly thing marked by the 21st and i've not even finished writing it yet! it's my project for next week. i need to get it finished otherwise i will not be graduating this year, so i suppose that that should be a huge incentive, but with everyone else finished it's going to be really difficult not to get lazy with it...
Anyway! i invite you all to the degree show at Hereford College of arts, Folly Lane...
Taraa for now...XxX
