week 8

This past week our class put on a make-a-thon to help get enough bowls for a school empty bowls event, and I was very excited to be apart of that. I also had some soda fires come out of the kiln. I wasn't very happy with them at first, but they've started to grow on me. I plan to have some pictures of them up later.

I'm spending the week in New York and so far I've seen so much work.
I'm excited to go a gallery art showing on the 18th and I plan to visit the Met later in the week.
Going to MoMA was an amazing experience and was so inspiring.

2020 is the worst year ever & why Part 1-

I'm Bipolar I'm Bipolar and a Queer, Black, Mexican Woman living in America. I'm a Queer, Black, Mexican Woman living in America during a pandemic and it's election season.  This year Did start off amazing.

It was an exciting moment but everything went down hill from there.  Soon after the rise in covid cases spiked to a point that everything was immediately shut down and I lost my job (to which, I still do not have). Just after was the Death of Breonna Taylor in our own city of Louisville. And then after was the Death of George Floyd. Ma...

Tomorrow is my final crit and I am more nervous now than I am excited.  I went into the studio tonight to unbrick the kiln but it was already done by the time I had gotten there. I pulled my things out and epoxying the things that broke in the wood kiln and other items that just had cracks.  I'm going in early tomorrow morning to find some pinata inks and paint the poxy gold. I'm not sure I'll use those in the final but it's good to just go ahead and do it. I also had my husband come in with me as I don't see him very often and we brought the dogs in with us. They got super dirty but it was fun for everyone over the break I want to be in the studio more so I can actually work on things not assignment based and hopefully I'll get a little bit better on the wheel.

crit day

crit felt like poop. I thought more people were going to talk, and they didn't. But everything is all good. I'm just going to keep working on things over the brake and see where it takes me. Maybe I'll be inspired and pick a direction to go in for next semester.
