Day 7

First thing I did after I woke up and got myself ready for the day was head over to Slocumb to add a second coat of mod podge to the SLU collage so that it would be ready to be picked up either today or tomorrow. Once that was out of the way I spent much of the morning and afternoon cutting images for the University of Denver collage. There was about 20 sheets of images so it took me most of the morning and afternoon hours to complete. By the end of the day I took out the last canvas that I had and placed the center image for the DU collage and glued it down, this makes it easier to plan out where the rest of the images will go. Before I went to bed I cut out images for the Fairfield University collage to help put me in a good place for tomorrow.

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 2

Today started out similar to yesterday, I woke up around 8:30 am and headed over to Slocumb at 9:45.  My plan for today was to lay out all of the pieces that I cut out yesterday on one of my canvases then glue this down. As I started to lay pieces down, I realized that I was not going to have enough to fill the whole canvases. What I decided to do instead was glue down the pieces that were already in place then go to the library after lunch and print more. Once I had all of the new images printed and cut out it was around 1:30 pm, so for the rest of the day I continued to glue and find places for the new images. The lack of images the I had did put me back a few steps but now I know that tomorrow I need to get to Slocumb early to finish the Wesleyan collage and start my SLU collage. Hours: 6 hours total 9:45am - 12:45pm 1:30pm - 2:30pm 10:00pm - 12:00am
