This guy is CRAZY!!!!! Props to him for being able to do this and hang on while they are taking the photo,but really dude? When i first say these. Thought they may gave been green screened, but they arnt!!! Talk about laughing in deaths face. Anybody who does anything this crazy gets a big fat 10 in my book!!! And the photos come out great too!!!!

Finished the trippy tree thing!!!!!!

I feel like an idiot kuz I forgot to post this last Monday. *facepalm* but me and bre finished the huge triangle thingy. Here are the last few pics of it. Oh and we also counted up the approximate number of origami triangles that we folded, aprox. (Drum roll please) 1,122 triangles!!!!!!! That's pretty impressive if you ask me. All I know is Monday by the time class was over our fingers were hurting from folding the last like 300 black ones. Specially bre. She is a trouper and folded a majority of them while I put them together and glued them down. Burnt my self in the process at least once, but welcome to art school. Right? Lol but I hope you guys like the finished product tell me what you think.



P.S. we won't be showing it in the critique because its gunna be in the show. So go see it there when they put it up and enjoy the pics of the final result and me and bre being goofy while making it. ^^

'nother quote

I have two. They don't really pertain to art but they are the from the Dali lama and he is kinda an awesome guy/philosopher/mentor/a bunch of other awesome-sauce things. But here they are:

Education is the way of achieving far-reaching results, it is the proper way to promote compassion and tolerance in society.
-Dali lama

Peace in the world relies on individuals finding their own inner peace
-Dali lama

The man is right in both matters. Specially the second one. He is defiantly right in the seance that if people would find an in Eric peace within themselves and did not hate as much there would be a LOT less violence in the world, this creating something to the equivalent of world peace. I know it sounds corny and i sound like a hippy, and blah blah blah, but the man knows what he is saying.

Think about it.

Teracycle/container project.

I'm a bit further than this on it right now. I'm just catching upon this while I am taking a few minute break. But I'm thinking about spray painting the inside of the big clear wobbly jar. I'm kind of upset because I ordered those little fiber optic wands (see pic below) and I wanted to poke holes around the jar and poke them out a little so it would resemble the self illuminating jellyfish a little more. But they sadly did not come in the mail yet. (Watch I'm going to get the email that I received that package during the critique tomorrow) but I'm sad that fell through. I'm mad to because someone snatched my last piece of foam board. Now I gotta wait till morning to go get a new piece. Ugh, getting a headache from all the things going wrong.... ~.~ Hope I do finish. Wish me luck guys. ^^;

A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament.

Oscar Wilde

I chose this quote because I 100% absolutly agre with him. Art us deffinatly as unique as the artists who make them. Every artist might have inspiration from some thing/one else but every artest has a uniqueness to themselves that is their own. 

Big 3D project

So for the 3D container building thing, I was thinking something with bioluminescent jelly fish and graffiti. I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do yet, but here are some of the inspiration pictures so far
