Day 3

 Today I made sure to get up early and head over to the studio so I can get my day started. I got to Slocumb around 8:30 am with the plan to finish the Wesleyan collage then move onto the SLU collage. I first set up my area with all of the images and mad paug that I needed. I finished gluing down everything and adding a coat of mod paug to secure all the images before lunch. I took a break around 12:30 pm but returned to the studio at 1:00 pm to start the SLU collage, so I took the next hour and a half to place all of the images and then start to glue down any that I could so I can be in a good place for tomorrow!

Hours: 6.5 hours total

8:30 am - 12:30 pm

1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

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

Image
 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
