Sunflowers are symbolic for the meaning of life. The picture shows them turning away. My idea for the summary project is to capture their wilting effect and intensify it with color.

Possibly an idea for the tool project. Using a straw to create small explosions

Anselm’s winter fields remind me of frozen time. When I look at this painting I get a sense of the absence of life. The black background and writing look like the last words of humanity if the sun disappeared

I am thinking of doing a blurred painting of maybe my dog. Building on the idea of memory

I changed my tool to a sponge, it’s better for moving the paint around

I had an idea for the object project. I was thinking of painting on fan blades. Spinning image

Last minute idea, instead of fireworks maybe thermal heat instead (lighting from concealed sources) haven’t decided what to paint yet

My neighbor just gave me a really cool scooter to paint on. It won’t be for this assignment but I’ll definitely use this for a future project.
