Final Project

I started working exploring materials a while ago. I decided for my final project to use different color of ink, watercolor crayons, dry pastel, and pencil and charcoal.
My theme is change of human through out their life. Evolution, Transformation....
I want to start by creating a canvas with the inks and watercolor , then draw on top with charcoal and pastels, and then will use pictures and photoshop to use the best parts and put is together. I want my final project to have many layers.
this pictures jsut how the first stage... of my project. This is just the canvas.

Window of the Soul Documentary

Hi All,

I was talking to Tom about a movie which I definitely want to share with you.

"Window of the Soul" is a Brazilian documentary on blindness where they explore vision and perception by interviewing artists.

I watched it for the first time in college and a couple more after. It is so touching, so good and so inspiring. I really recommend to everyone.

It is available on youtube in very good resolution (just click on "CC", on the bottom right of the screen just next to the comments icon, to get the english subtitles) click here to watch

And this is a nice and brief article about the movie click here to read

Tom,

The skin close-up scene I told you about is the first/opening scene. The camera "flies" poetically over this skin, which is not beautiful or perfect or anything at first sight, but then it become this incredible trip on sensations like you could close your eyes and really feel it.

Meredith Dawson model drawing

Here is a model I did in class a few weeks ago. It is made up entirely of words. I think I like her hair the best. Word Hair!

Meredith Dawson creative projects

Here is a digital collage of my final project, but I don't plan on using its color palate--I created it more to give me a sense of where to place everything on the page. Even though this collage was taped to my wall, I ended up trancing out and creating the other piece--I worked on it every night to try to bring more detail back into it but it just wasn't happening, I guess. I worked and scrubbed these pastels onto this surface really hard and then rubbed and smeared the colors with a rag once my fingers got too sore from doing it. Here is what I like about what I did in this one: some ghostly people ended up popping out of the picture, I don't know if you can see that, and that is part of my theme.
