Homework, homework, homework. There seems to be so much homework for me to do this week and especially today. The rough draft of my paper is written, so that weight is off my shoulders, but there is still quite a bit left to do before Friday. I have statistics problems to work out, a sociology quiz to study for, and I don't even want to think about my art project too much. Our current project in art is a 3D sculpture of our own head and we have to make it entirely out of cardboard. Oh my goodness, talk about challenging. I have worked on that head for close to five hours already and it barely looks like a head. Now, I must give props to the art department for reusing materials. The cardboard provided for us is mostly boxes that art supplies were shipped in. The boxes would have ended up in the garbage anyway, so we might as well put them to good use...if you call about 20 cardboard heads good use.There are some really cool ways to use cardboard, other than making a model of your own head. Some artists specialize in reusable materials. Cardboard furniture is actually quite intriguing, in my opinion. Such a potentially flimsy material gets turned in a lightweight, yet very stable, piece of furniture. That is simply genius.
From my cardboard head to yours,

so I wonder what happens if u spill your drink on the cardboard furniture?...does is get all wrinkly for good? and that is really cool you guys are making a head out of cardboard i would never even imagine trying to attempt something like that. hope it turns out well
ReplyDeletei think they cover it with a sealer, but i'm not positive about that. and it did turn out okay, in my opinion. i have yet to get a grade for it.
