Thought

Re�ectionThe connection between the prompts and how my pieces turned out was not always clear. Most of the time I started with a single image or idea that the prompt gave me, then I expanded on that idea. Once you realize what the original conecpt was, it all becomes clearer.

My favorite prompt was Freewill vs. Moral Culpability. I really enjoyed exploring this topic. The piece that came out of it was also my favorite. I enjoyed working with both the white and black charcoal, as I had never worked with the two together before.

One conceptual risk that I took was during the Beautiful vs. the Sublime prompt. The image that I origianlly thought of was an old man. I wasn’t sure why I thought of this, but I decided to just run with it in the spirit of Blink. As I worked more on it the connection between the prompt and the image came to me more strongly, and was satisfied with it.

One structural design risk I took was when we worked with the foamcore. I wanted to �nd a way to put the different pieces of foamcore together without useing tape or glue, as a result of that not all of my pieces were very secure.

In most of the pieces I produced, I noticed a consistency of line quality througout them. Most have a bold quality and there were usually a lot of them. This is most predominant in the secon and third pieces.
