It's never too late right?

Although I'm starting to narrow in on my BFA project and how that will manifest, there's always tests and experiments that need to be done.

After meeting with Deborah it became clear my interest lies mostly in the process of making and creating, the formal qualities of paint and manipulation of materials are what I hope to explore. The aesthetic and inherent visual qualities of the piece should speak for themselves, while the recurring elements in my work (such as patterning and the figure) are more of just tools to allow me to play with the medium of painting.

For my piece for the show I am still using the figural triptych completed last quarter, but working with building up and destroying the canvas to create a more dimensional and fresh take on the figure. I played with some old oil paintings and applied house paint, acrylic paint, cutting, sewing, and readhering (although the letters were tested using tape, so that's not permanent).
