Day 1

 Today was the first day of senior project, so for me it was all about finding a routine to get into. I woke up around 8:30 am and got ready for the day then headed over to the library around 10:00 am. There I focused on sizing some images that needed to be printed for my current collage and up coming ones. About an hour later I headed over to Slocumb to set up my spot at one of the tables and started the process of cutting images for my third collage for my friend Ayla who will be going to Wesleyan. The process of cutting takes a while so I spent all of my day doing that so tomorrow I can arrive to Slocumb and start laying out all of the images and gluing them down. My day ended around 2:30 pm when I finished cutting all of the images and cleaning up my area to then head off to sports for the rest of the afternoon. Tonight I will try to get ahead by cutting images for my following collage for St. Lawrence University. You all can also follow along with my work through my instagram @ collages4causes!

Weekly reflection 5/17 - 5/22

 This past week I was about to complete over 32 hours of work and 3 different collages. Most days were more or less the same with making my college by cutting, gluing or printing. I feel like I have been very responsible with my time this past week by taking advantage of all my available time. I have enjoyed being in Slocumb during this time because it is such a laid back atmosphere yet everyone around you is working hard and keeping their focus it makes you do the same thing. My mentor, Corby, has let me have free rain on what I do with my time in Slocumb. He lets me decide when I can come in, what my goals are and how I plan out my collages.  Once I ran out of pre-made collages, I thought that I was going to have to make more which would have taken me a full day. So Corby and I decided that it would be better for me to order more canvases from Amazon. The next day Corby told me that he found some pre-made canvases in the supply closet that I am able to use. This made the pro...

Day 6

 Today I did not get as much done as I hoped to but I was able to prepare for the week ahead. I started off my day by going to the library around 9:00 am and printing out five different sets of images to start cutting out. I then went over to Slocumb to finish out my second SLU collage by cutting out smaller images it fill in blank spaces then adding the first coat of mod podge. After I decided to go back to my dorm to cut out images for my Connecticut College collage. I was not able to get very far because of a doctors appointment that took up most of my afternoon. Later tonight I continued to cut images to prepare me for tomorrow, where I plan to add a second coat of mod podge to finish the SLU collage then start the Connecticut College collage. Hours: 9:00 am - 12:00 pm 10:00 pm - 11:30 pm

Day 5

 On Friday my day was pretty similar to the past few. I got up, did my normal morning routine and headed over to Slocumb around 9:00 am. The first thing that I got done was adding a second coat of mod podge to my first SLU collage and then let it sit out to dry. Since I had to make a second SLU collage, to save time I decided to follow to same pattern of images to save me some time. For the rest of the day I spent most of my time cutting pieces and gluing them down. On Monday I will have to go to the library to print some more images to hep finish this collage but also to print out images for my next order! Hours: 5 hours total 9:00 am - 12:30 pm 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm
