This week I tried out my new phone with some concert images. I was happy with the results, as my previous phone camera were not as good with concert lighting. I also started on my midterms, which required a lot of self-reflection on my studio work this semester.

This week I continued to read essays by Sonya Huber as part of my research. I also took photographs that I could turn into panoramic images using Photoshop. I realized if I selected large areas of my work and used content aware fill, I could create abstract images. Finally, I documented feedback from my postcard project and filled out more to be sent out.
My studio time this week had to be dedicated to my research. I finished reading the Jo Spence book (Putting myself in the Picture), and then proceeded to write my research paper about it. I also prepared another set of photographs to go out in the mail on Wednesday. I gathered some initial feedback from people who received my postcards and documented that into my Process Portfolio. I greatly missed making studio work with all the reading and writing I had to complete, so I plan to get back to making art this upcoming week. I did find a deer skeleton on the side of the road which was pretty interesting to photograph.
This week I sent out my first batch of postcards and prepped the second set that will go out this week. I also played with the camera settings on my new phone (pictures of the peace lily). On Friday evening, I attended an opening at Cherry Arts for Lorrie Fredette. I also cropped and played with my watercolor paintings and learned how to create glitch art by altering the code of a jpg image. Finally, I read more of the research book I am going to soon be writing a paper on (Putting myself in the Picture, Jo Spence)
