What I saw project. (Closed my eyes and saw my eyelids)

So for this assignment I couldn't really choose what particular item I wanted to bring to life. I ended going with the first one on the list and kind of changed it alot. I started making literally the insides of eyelids, then I thought to myself, is that really creative? SO I kind of went more of of a metaphor. What do you see when you close your eyes? DO you see happiness? despair? anger? fear? Do you see anything at all? or is it all just thoughts and random pieces of a world? Anyway, I closed my eyes and though up a scene. It is a little weird and creepy, but I visualized it the best that I could. I love the thought of an alternate reality. So I kind of created this artificial looking scene. Tell me what you think, if you think its awesome, great, if you think it sucks, then whatever haha.








"When I Close My Eyes"

When you close yours, what do you see?

Class 1/24/11

Class on Monday had some interesting conversations. I agree with some of my classmates opinions on how rules can be bad, I also agree with some of the viewpoints on how they are good. I personally think that there are way too many rules for things in society today. The government thinks that they can prevent injury by adding a bunch of rules to things. When in actuality people are gonna do whatever they wanna do, no matter what the "rules" say you can do. I know because I am one of those people. Anyway, I am looking forward to upcoming discussions and projects in this class. This is curently my only class that I somewhat enjoy.

Eggs Benedict

This is my project for the egg. I didn't actually use a real egg but was inspired by it. I had many different ideas that could have taken me in many different directions with this project. I chose this one because I thought it might be entertaining.

I call it , "Eggs Benedict"




Note: this is in no way meant to be offensive to anybody or Mr. Benedict.

Yesterdays Class

My impression of yesterdays class was good. I think that it is going to be a fun class to be in this semester. I think that there are a lot of different opinions when it comes to everything, so we are gonna have a lot of good discussions about stuff. I found all the different definitions "art" interesting. I agree with some statements and didn't with others, but there is no problem with that.

I personally think that there are different kinds of art. Like practical, and genuine. I think that practical art would be defined as something like a car, and genuine are defined as something like a painting. I don't know, just some thoughts.

Expectations

Hey!

I hope to become more creative and open minded to ideas from this class. I sometimes struggle with thinking outside of the box when it comes to creative elements. I can sometimes but not all the time.

Other than that I am looking forward to a fun semester with this class. It seems very open and energetic. I am looking forward to doing some of the creative assignments.
