I got my materials and glued the bear down to the canvases. Now I just have to paper mache on top

I have been gathering all of the cardboard I need for my project over the past week and I finally have it all. For next class I will be shaping and cutting all of the cardboard into a large circle, and prep for putting on the mirrored contact paper.

I built, stretched, and primed the canvas I’m planning to paint on. Most of my extra time was spent allowing it to dry, but I also figured out my “broken” (not broken) projector in case I need it to use it for my piece? My goal was to sketch out my design, and I think I will still get that done tonight, just once the canvas has dried. Hoping to start painting during thanksgiving.

brainstormed and thought a lot with my roommate about the form, dimensions, and the best way to create this. found some wire cutters and started cutting and shaping my base piece

During class I researched different materials to use, and changed my final project plans slightly, also deciding on a more definitive location in Moulton, although not an exact one. I also attempted to find some textures that may potentially be of interest for me to use or reference on my project, taking inspiration from the artist Dan Lam. For the most par the way that my project will progress depends on the materials that I am planning to use, on Thursday I will try to see if there is still latex in the Sculpture Studio.

Photoshopped this reference photo, I want to start sketching on Thursday. I will be adding more in the background after I sketch Marsha. Costco prints cost $25-$59 and other local ones in orange are also around the same price. Solidified my project idea, and likely will want to take a picture with my print next to the john wayne statue at the john wayne airport, and keep a permanent copy hanging in AF, the cross cultural center, or somewhere else where I would be allowed to leave it. I will be in contact with facilites and VP of DEI to see where would be okay to locate it.

we walked around campus and took photos of different naturally occurring poles and locations around campus that we think would be high traffic or places where the words or sayings on the sundial would make sense and become a site specific project. For example we took a photo of a naturally occurring pole outside Keck where we will put a sundial that will have percentages that could be test percentages. In the photo above this is by the flags and where there is heavy traffic from the dorm so we might put one there where a lot of people will see it

We are going to make a couple types of sundials around campus. Miniature sundials to put on the outdoor tables at Starbucks, create sundials out of pre existing structures on campus like the poles and lamp posts, and stick poles/wood in grass lawns. We will need chalk (and/or grass chalk if management permits), wood poles (like the plant stalks), poster signage, string and yard stick for a perfect circumference.

I planned out the process of making my sushi monument and found a possible box that I could use to start the structure next class.
