Artist

The Figurative artist that i liked was Laurie Pace. She lives in Texas and is a very accomplished artist. I liked her pieces because of the color and shapes in them. The way that she painted all of the people blending into each other was really unique and interesting. It shows how all humans are connected, but all different in our own ways. The other painting she did that I really liked were these hands. A lot of people paint hands, but something about hers really stood out. I love her water color paintings, and just the way she paints. It's really unique and messy but still so pretty. She also incorporated all of the elements into the hands. I didn't notice the fire at first, but the more you look at it the more interesting it gets and I like that. Here are some of her pieces.

Vessel

For my vessel I thought it would be fun to do a box... That was my first mistake. I made many mistakes that I had to overcome, the first as I mentioned before was the fact that I made a box. I don't exactly like boxes, not really even sure why I made this. But the entire time I had to overcome the struggle of hating my piece. In the end it ended up looking not extremely terrible, thanks to your fantastic idea of covering it in glass jars that had fake flowers in them. However, in the future I would never make a box again, and I hope if any of your students ever say "Mrs. Sudkamp I want to make a box," you get my box out and warn them of the ugliness that is in their future. Even though it was ugly, it is probably the most functional piece in this whole room. I mean you really could out anything in it, it could support a good amount of weight so that's probs good. Anyways now it's time for picturesss!!!!!!!!
