Day-to-Day: Focus Week Presentations

Of course there was more to Focus Week than just myself presenting. I got to see many of my friends do wonderful presentations and here's my little drawn snapshot of each!

Amanda did amazing artwork on fairy tales, but since all her figures were female she got the eevil questions on feminism. Those are not her words but my own.

I can't begin to tell you how many people were drawing octopus or nonnopus at Andrea's proposal. Must say I am looking forward to seeing where her comic goes.

Nicole's oral presentation was so much fun and her art very playful. Ooh but it was so early in the morning!

Jenn did an amazing job at her oral defense! I have to say she thought one step ahead of me on what she was going to say next! She did an amazing job not only with talking about her work but answering questions!

My Art: Marie Antoinette

We got our second art direct each other assignment. I paired up this time with Amanda and gave her the task of making something a little more typography centric. I will either post a link to what she did or put it up here on my blog later.
As for myself she gave me the assignment of doing a bust of Marie Antoinette with more detail in it than some of my other pieces. I of course had to get the likeness of someone and decided to choose her. Hehe she was a little embarrassed when she learned I picked her as my model. Below are my sketches and under that the final. I will spare Amanda the embarrassment and not put up the stock photo I got of her for the final.


I did enjoy all of my sketches but sadly only one had time to go foreword so the hat won out. I did enjoy doing a piece that was more painting than the other art I do. It was relaxing to sit down and get in the zone.

And now the final...the scan is not as good as the original sadly...
