Still working...

Things are going smoothly with my large scale production of the previous piece I showed, just a lot of paper to rub off!! I've already burned the screen with one of the patterns I will use, so as soon as the paper is completely removed I can start putting it together and finishing the piece.
I received the plexiglas stands I talked about from plasticare yesterday and they look awesome! They will definitely be useful for future pieces. Going off of that, I had my faculty meeting with Chinn and she gave me a great idea for installing the works... Instead of making stands after the fact to fit the stand, she suggested that I might create my own pedestals with recesses for the plexi sheets to sit in, and to leave extra room at the bottom so that nothing is blocked from view. Obviously I might not be able to accomplish that in this small amount of time, but I think it's a brilliant idea for the future. For now I will probably continue with the stands, though they will have to be modified so that they stabilize the large scale piece I'm working on now, which is not only large but also quite heavy. She suggested that I might have holes drilled in the base of the stands so I can be sure they are securely attached to the surface.
We talked a lot about life after graduation which was also extremely helpful. I feel confident about taking some time before graduate school to build my resume, and apply to shows, grants and residencies. Speaking of which, I interviewed for a job at the Harmony Project today, which is very exciting! I also had an opening yesterday at the Art Student's League of Denver, where I was very proud to exhibited with so many amazing and talented artists.
Here's a preview of the next piece in the works...
