Funny enough, cherry flavored bubbles actually have a little something to do with this project post. Cherry is my favorite flavor, but would I advise actually eating the bubbles even if the bottle clearly marked “EDIBLE”? No. Not even if the fine print read: “Really. We promise. You can eat this product.”
Thank you, but no thank you, misguided advertisement. That idea ranks up there with edible crayons. Wow. Members of modern day society are real go-getters; we have a knack for turning CAN’T into CAN. I just wish we’d all channel that energy elsewhere instead of convincing our children that the purple one really does taste like grape. Guess what I won’t be doing while mankind is riding this train (wreck) of thought? Procreating.
Besides, do you know how utterly ridiculous you’d look trying to catch every edible bubble in the park with your face?
But I digress. For this Design I project I really needed to isolate my concentration. See what I did there?
Isolation & Concentration.
Two different concepts, but both orbit around the planet Focal Point.
I made up two different designs to represent each. And, you know what, I actually managed to finish it in class. Sky was the limit with these designs, I realize; however, like I pointed out in the pun located above I wanted to isolate my concentration. I have a tendency to take far, far too much time over thinking projects — throw in afterwards a dash of “procrastination” and you have a recipe for, well… nothing.
So I chose a theme today and stuck to it. I strictly let the stencil Professor Waldvogel provided be my guide. And that guide was, you must have guessed it by now: cherries and bubbles.
Did you think I was fooling you up there, audience? Please. Now trust me and get your tongue away from that light socket; they haven’t yet invented something to make that okay.
I loved your story! So funny. Also I love both of your pictures. The point is clearly demonstrated in the picture.
Hey Amanda, I really like your isolation design. It is obvious where the focal point is, but the design is also interesting to look at.
I have to say before I start talking about your pieces. I really like the way you write, it’s very personable. xD Anyways, I appreciate that both of your pieces have a theme. I really like the cherry piece, it feels like a pattern that could be on fabric or the like. The bubbles are really cool as well, and I really like the difference in line thickness. I like that you put thought into your pieces. =)
Your blog is really interesting to read and I also can see that you put a lot of thought and creativity into your pieces! It’s nice to see how you engage yourself into your project and really have fun with it! I’m interested to see what else will appear in your blog!Keep it up!
Your isolation piece just draws you in. Very well done.
This is really goood. Your work definitely captured my attention on both isolation and concentration.Well done! By the way, I liked your story too.
the way you did your assignment was very well done
Really cool designs. The Concentration design is awesome to look at.
I love the personality you put into not just your work but your blog as well. I actually clicked on yours because of the title of the link. Just scanning the page before I read, I saw the bubbles and the cherries, but the story really made it all wonderful to read. Your lack of stencil use also really stands out and how dark you chose to go gives both pieces a finished quality to them. Awesome job!
Your designs are so bold and clear. I really like that about your style. I think you did a good job of making the stencil interesting in your designs as well.
Both your designs are very well done and work as intended! Good job yo
I really like your isolation one!
hey, i like how your designs stand out because of how bold it is. the designs themselves are pretty unique but the popping out feeling the thickness of the lines give are really nice.
I love that you had a concept behind your designs.
The shapes you chose are definitely original. And I love how you write!
