AAAHHH, Montana, and CLOUDS!!!

AAAhhhhh, It has been tooooo long my peoples. I have utterly failed on keeping up with the blog over the summer and the first have of this semester. A big 'my bad' on that one. My summer was super slow, relaxing, and crazy stupid lazy. I worked for Slocumb Galleries on campus here for the first half of summer. But that was just a temp job and I only got like 10 hours a week, which was perfectly ok with me. Then I managed to score a job at Old Navy which is a great break from the restaurant and secretary type work I've been doing. Once the semester hit though, I got crazy busy. I've been trying to keep up with my 4 studio courses and a mod. art history class. So far so good and I have some art to show for it. I'll be posting the images as I complete them but for now I can show what I have....some I still need to take photos of.

Before the art take a gander at this tune. It is by Youth Lagoon and is called Montana. Such a nice sound and an epic build up that, if your like me, you will freaking love.

"CLOUDS" This was the first project I completed for my Intro to Printmaking class here at ETSU. Done on plexiglass, I attempted to produce a very figurative image to take advantage of the graceful line quality the plate allowed for me to get. Although this is technically a self-portriat I was more concerned with the clouds. I tried to capture the gaze of the figure as well as the thought behind the gaze. Wether I was successful or not is up to the audience but either way I truly enjoy this print and the way it came out.
