These are some Photoshop creations from photos from Ft. Worden. I stayed in an officers house this year for the first time and absolutely loved the molding and architectural details in the house. So in the few spare moments I had I took pictures inside the officers house and then I have combined them with tree and landscape pictures I have taken other years. I am enjoying the contrast and connection between the architectural and the natural.
Day two of Artfest was spent making Junk Birds out of scrap of fabric and feathers. It was a super fun silly class with lots of creative exploration. It was inspirational to see what other people did with a form that I have worked with a lot!
Day three was Happy Harpy class and I was a tired tired girl.. The work was outstanding in this class as well but alas I did not do a good job of photo documentation.
A big THANK YOU to all my great students at Artfest !!!
Wow! teaching my first class at ArtFest…It was super exciting and a bit nerve racking, but oh so satisfying. I had the best students that did the most creative work. I was great to watch a room full of people work within a format I work in all the time and see the incredible diversity of approaches and styles. I can’t help but be influenced by the creativity of my students… So here is a photo documentation of Doll Transformed Class Artfest 2011…
Great to see it in print….
This is what a lot of the dolls looked like before we got started
These pictures that follow are from Show and Tell night, after the students have got to do some final touches and refining. I was blown away by the creativity and quality of everyone’s work.
