Photographing Prints

February 16, 2009

Finally started to document my work… which was quite the challenge. I think the hardest part was working my complicated camera (so many buttons). I managed to figure out that outdoor lighting works much better then indoor lighting. I am now finished with 5 of the 9 prints i need to complete for my BFA show. That being said i am going to take a little break and work on a side print to clear my mind for a week or two. I am starting to get restless with my BFA prints- and I think with some time off i will hopefully have another rush of inspiration.

And some great news: The People of Print exhibition was a huge hit! We had a great turn out, and several prints were sold… including one of my own :) . To see some lovely pictures from the event: http://www.flickr.com/photos/14868235@N02/sets/72157613604050350/

Vintage Fabric

I think Valentines Day has brought out the crafy side in me. I have all these great card ideas flouting around in my head at the moment… the one that excites me the most involves vintage fabrics. I was delighted to find a few sites that sold cheaper vintage fabrics: reprodepot.com. I will be saving this project for the summer since I have a lot of things going on right now.
