My work and a few of Dane’s pieces are being hung through the month of March. I have managed to put off pretty much everything I planned on doing for the show. This Monday I should have buttons & magnets for sale even though the gallery is half way through…..Im so lazy. Since the start of school I’ve done nothing but crank out assignment after assignment. Three Dimension Design which is perhaps my hardest class for a couple reasons. The biggest reason is familiarity with different sculpture mediums. I think my professor also has it in for me as well, taking some days to slowly shave away my ego. My professor is a talented artist and I respect his critiques but he spends more time shooting peoples ideas rather than teaching people better and more innovative ways to address the assignment. Here’s my cardboard sculpture.

Bringing commercialism to the Arctic circle.

Amazing idea, glad it was finally done

(DMS) Snow Days

So this year I started school at Herron School of Art and Design after two failed attempts of admission, first for those pesky high school grades and later for insufficient credits. I’m finally gong to a real art school at last with actual art classes taught by mostly talented professionals. Class however for the first year is composed entirely of mandatory foundation courses, your basic drawing class and bullshit classes that you’d think all incoming freshman would know. On the bright side most of the students are of the female variety (SCORE!1!), even if most of them are spoiled, sheltered, and socially awkward but they’re still woman. This is a defiant upgrade from some of the things that crawled around the halls of Ivy Tech. First car breakdown of the year happened over the weekend. My radiator cracked partly from old age and Indiana’s lovely 42 degree weather one week, then continuing to drop 1 foot of snow and 30degrees. I CANT WAIT FOR MY TAX RETURN!!!!!!

Updates!!

Two new pieces in my gallery

Canvas prints available at our Etsy shop.

I figured I should post something considering my last entry was in october, which dane added that lovely tag line. “Bolf” is a missprounciation of the word both, one of dane’s most frequent spoken piece of our granparents past. I can also assume that Dane dosn’t reread very much of what he writes either, maybe he might even put a blindfold on before getting ready to hammer out another entry but enough mudslinging for now. Schools is back with vengeance taking my free time and beating it like it owes him money. I’m attending school full time now, instead of the cushy one class a week I had last semester at Ivy Tech. My weekely schedule starts by going school monday through thursday and working days Tuedays and Thursdays( 6a.m.!!1!one) and most of the weekend. Herron is a million times better than ivy tech!!!!!! Even more good news( sorta), I finally got an apartment after a battle with the infamouse Zender number 1 all time lowest google score leasing office agencey in Indy. Turns out if your apartment complex requires a cosigner, you cant have the same cosigner as your sibling living in that same complex that your moving into. I had to pay half my lease in cash to those oily bastards because I didnt have another cosigner being that Im a bit of a bastard child being raised by my grandparents. I also had to pay two securiety deposits, one of them was equal to one months rent. The lady at the leasing office asked me why I was having a bad day? I told her when someone has to fork over half their checking account they tend to be a little irrate. New place is nice over all, lots of storage, wood floors, tall ceilings,ALL UTILITIES PAID and it stays surprising warmer than my brothers apartment.
