a few of my favorite things....

Since this is my first post I wanted to tell everyone a little about myself.. I am a third year Fine Art student at the College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning at the University of Cincinnati. Technically I am graduating next year but have no clue what I plan on doing with my life.. which is terrifying.

Being in school has really helped my artwork because every project I have to do helps me figure how my likes and dislikes. It is also helping me discover what I might want to do and not do.

After taking a photography class I realized that I absolutely love exploring in abandoned places. I decided to do my photography project on trains. At first I was worried I wouldn’t be able to find trains or it wouldn’t be safe. But the finding the trains were the best part!!! Here are some examples from that project...



After taking two life drawing classes I realized that I love drawing the human body. The way the body moves and all of the muscles to form the body. It makes me want to do something that involves the body. Here are some examples from those classes...



My first painting class was terrifying because it was this year and I haven’t painted since senior year in high school. Also I have never used oil before which was a crazy experience!! Here is my final painting from that class (also my favorite!!)....



Throughout my blog I hope to show you more of what I am doing this quarter!!
