Critique 1

I liked the experience of a class critique. I haven't really had that experience until i came to Marist so i was happy for it. I like hearing the opinions of others about my work because it is good to hear what others have to say about it and to hear what i could have done different and what are aspects that they liked. I definitely learned that I should research a little more before I use something in my work because I used a buddha in my work, but I'm not sure if it is the exact one that is worshipped in Sri Lanka. I liked how people liked the zoomed in picture of the starfruit and I liked the criticism of possible having left the color more like the actual color of it instead of changing it.

Working on Project 1

For the Fruit/Vegetable project I chose the star fruit. While doing my project I came across some problems starting it. I had trouble focusing in on what I wanted to do because there were 4 different parts to the project. I was trying to come up with ideas for everything before i started and I was trying to make them have a connection. I ended up just playing around with the tools and the scanned images for a while and then finally started forming a panel. I went for a pretty strait forward approach to the project because i just really liked how the star fruit looks on its own and I just wanted to enhance that. Overall I was pleased with what I came up with, though I probably could have fixed a few things.
