Synopsis

Note: This was meant to be posted last week, but now I have a few pics to actually update about it. 

Definitions of Synopsis:

1 : a condensed statement or outline (as of a narrative or treatise) : abstract

2 : the abbreviated conjugation of a verb in one person only

 What is Synopsis for me? The Senior Group Exhibition, featuring two art historians, two sculptors, two painters, two ceramists. Sadly, no printmakers, though I am becoming one and could potentially have some in my show. With that said, I should still make one more print before Wednesday. Essentially this show serves as a test run of what our own shows will be in the Spring, or for one sculptor and ceramist, this Fall, with their shows going up next month. This is the rundown:

This past Saturday and Sunday the seniors have been setting up the show. Everything must be up and ready for view by Monday 8 am. Wednesday we have our Senior Reviews where every art professor, minus our advisor, comes to hear our work and hear us out; in turn they offer suggestions, concern, constructive criticism. It is a chance for them to understand what it is we are trying to do in our studio. On Friday, we will have our reception, and take the show down on Sunday. 

Yesterday was hectic in ways, some confusion, slight drama, some frustration, but I believe things will or already have worked out. For spending pretty much two days of working and helping each other out, it's funny that this show will only be up for a week. 

Perhaps we should just all it Brevity.

I'll Give You a Hint.

I'm not going to post any of my work until Synopsis, the Senior Group Exhibit. Why? I'm hoping people will come to it and see the work. Then again, I'm not even sure anyone actually looks at this blog. Mucho sadness. I hope you realize you can comment on this even if you don't have an account... just leave your name so I know who you are.

Oh yes, a hint of the work:

Oh, and in case you can't tell....

...I'm painting on the floor. I'm a cool kid like that.

That "S" in my last name

That "S" in my last name should stand for Stress.
One week to figure out to present my work.
Less than 3 weeks to Synopsis.
Less than 3 weeks to finish 3 works.
Less than 3 weeks to knock out 2 collagraphs.
Stress.


This best part is that I know I can do this.
Getting there is the worse part.

Go.
