But now it's 

But Giudice didn't like it

New Project! Lattin's Country Cider Mill sponsoring
I proposed the idea of displaying a goat eating a dough nut, a wagon wheel propped against a tree, an antique cider bottle and a New Zealand Giant rabbit

But the colors were muddy, so I redid some of it#TheStruggleAnd Finally, 

Creative art

Just because I liked the idea, I made a triptych of three identical trees; which was the hardest part. 

I used a graphite transfer technique to trace from. 

I started with just one; I wanted a tea-aged vintage look to my paper. I made a Japanese style blossoming tree with mixed mediums; sharpie, watercolor and tempera paint. 

Mrs. Hobart grabbed it while the paint was still wet and smeared the right corner's edge petals. But I made others, that were more satisfying. 

I made this with mixed mediums too; same kinds, different colors. 

And lastly, 

A tree that grows birds. 

I matted them and titled this piece "trees of life", arranging them in chronological order of the seasons. 

I liked it. I enjoyed it much more when it was finished. 

Water color project

I never actually did, but I wanted to combine these four pieces into a square so that there would be a square space in the middle for my signature, medium information, year and edition; all that. 

Upon peer critiques, I astonished the class. They didn't quite understand my struggle for perfection. They didn't see te flaws I saw. 

Any way, we had two weeks left, so we decided to just do expressive art with any  medium of our choice. I was thinking charcoal, but I remembered how much I hated it. I chose oil pastel instead. I made this cute little guy. 

It's a cartoony hedgehog. I gave it to my neighbor's five year old for her birthday. 

It was mixed medium; ink, water color and pastel.
