Senior Art Thesis: studio work

This is merely a sketch (although it is a complete work). The way that I wanted to sketch this semester was by creating smaller pieces in a small amount of time, really trying my skills of visual arts when it comes to color, space, composition, materials, etc. I am also doing these sketches out in the open on the Coe College campus (you could call it performance art...I just call it art).

Finally, X has been completed and I am finally happy with this piece. Its gone through many changes, but I am satisfied and you can look for this piece at the Cedar Rapids Eco-Arts Fest on April 16th, 2011. There, it will be showcased and judged along with a couple other pieces in a Recycled Art competition. This will be on sale there, so if you think you might be interested, come to the Eco-Arts Fest! more info on this event can be found on newboczech.info.

This piece actually looks completely different from when I took this photo. I don't have a name for it yet, but it is near completion (the photo doesn't do it any justice). It's an 8' long piece, so its the biggest piece that I have every done to this date. This is going in my Senior Exhibition

House #2 is one of the newest pieces I've been working on. It is one of the pieces to be shown at my Senior Art Exhibition on April 29th, 2011.

Home #1 is also going in my Senior Show in April, I am planning to use details of this work for my invites to my show, so if you would like one, email you address to my email address: njjared@coe.edu.

Finally, an update on this piece: Doorway. It is completed and it will accompany two of my pieces at the Recycled Art Show at this years Eco-Arts Festival in Cedar Rapids, IA. Come celebrate Earth Day and see my current work!
