I am a Student.

As a student at Marietta College, I must finish a capstone. Being an English and Art major, naturally I must do two. Fear not, this blog only involves my complicated thought process of the latter. My English capstone is too much of a mystery to even think about...

My All-Faculty Presentation is TOMORROW.

Oh dear, I'm slightly freaking out. I've set up my presentation and I feel it will go well, but it's still an attack on my nerves.

Here are the pictures about my exhibit:

My small wall
I have two walls, technically, to put my four art pieces.  I really just want to have my pieces, 5" x 7" cards describing the writers depicted, and my artist statement. My goal is to use the exhibit to not only show what I've learned for my techniques, but also what I've been learning in Museum Practices. In that class, we've been writing information cards which are 100-150 words long. I plan on using those words to talk about the writers so that I can teach my audience about the writers and not just leave them with an image.

Large wall
How the frames will look.

Thickness and depth of the frames.

The frames are made up of black wood and plexi-glass. The white sections are the glass, and the black is wood. Top is front. The top piece of plexi-glass protects the piece, and the back piece can either be clear or black. The artwork will be adhered to the back piece of plexi-glass with a 1" border around the edge so that I can show the detail of the edges of the pieces. As mentioned, my father is building these frames, and these plans are not final. I want to check them with the professors to make sure they're decent, and then I'm going to call home and my dad will begin building them this weekend. My plan is to pick them up during spring break.

Wish me luck tomorrow!
