The other idea I have thought about, mostly over the course of these last six months is Celiac Disease. I have recently got diagnosed with it and still have a lot to learn, and what better way to do so by researching it and maybe the effects it has on me as an artist.
Another thought I had to research is children and young adults coupled with art. What does art bring? What is most successful with students? Curriculum?
One goal of mine has been to journal. I would really like to incorporate that into my research by journaling and collaging creating beautiful works of art of thoughts or ideas.
Natasha,
ReplyDeleteI love that you are inspired by the Iowa landscape. I have felt the same way recently. I live close to the Coralville Reservoir and have been traveling out there from time to time to take pictures. What medium to you like to use in your art?
I really like what you said at the end of your entry. I'm really interested in the idea of blending, fusing words and art.
See you in class : )
Amie
You could also think of the landscape of Celiac's disease-how do you navigate such a landscape
ReplyDeleteremind me to give you Mary Swander's book
I really became inspired by the Iowan landscape when traveling in the Tama and Toledo Iowa area. It is beautiful over there with the large rolling hills! I can see where Grant Wood found his inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI also love the idea of collage work. I think I am going to focus on that for my project! Thank you for all the great comments!
