I am lost without my MacBook Pro!
So my MacBook is still sitting in Sacramento at the Apple Store. I have waaaay too much software loaded on my baby and she was suffering because of it. Well, I have the extended warranty so I figure "hey, why am I doing this? I paid for someone else to fix this if something wasn't right!" So, off to the Apple Store! Now I remember why I work on my own stuff... because it gets finished in a timely manner! I still don't have my laptop which means I didn't get to post to my blog over Spring Break which will probably lead to a low grade since Kirsten was going to review everything! I guess that means I have to work that much harder now. Back to the grind!

Repairing Old Photo's
For this project we had to find an old photo that had some form of damage on it and perform the necessary repairs to the picture and essentially restore the image.
Hockney Images
This assignment was to get interior, exterior and portrait shots and then stitch them together into a somewhat cohesive piece of artwork. Here are my examples:
Exterior of UoP
Interior of Living Room
Portrait of Cheerleader
Western Technosites
So we went to UoP (University of the Pacific) as a class to view the work of Daniel Kasser. The project was titled "Western Technosites". There was a simplicity in his work that I enjoyed. Landscapes with oversized, photoshopped tools extremely oversized that had relevance to the shot they were included in. The images themselves were hung using a simple method of binder clips. I would have liked to have seen something more adventurous like scrap metal shapes with discolorations, an earthy feel, to connect to the images. The huge scale shovel in the back of the gallery was fun. Overall I enjoyed the work and even went as far as to research Kasser further on my own time outside of the assignment.
I'm Back!
Ok, so after technical difficulties I am back. I tried starting a blog under a different name after issues with my original blog but I continued to get contacted about this blog asking when it would be updated. I have decided to come back to this blog and catch everything up so please be patient. For those of you who have kept in contact or followed my blog thanks.
