melanie: August 2009

I agree. I originally had fabric from my white dress scanned in but lost the file but it worked good with my cloud. I didnt like the clutter of jewelry but I liked that when I put the necklace in the middle it was somewhat of a divider :) plus its something I wear almost everyday. :)

timeline progress

Immediate observations... I think the thought cloud needs to be a different fabric.. less busy. Um I need my descriptions.. ha. And Im not sure if the jewelry is really working for my piece. Just woke up from my nap and about to start again. :)

BIO

So I have had a hard time with this one and I really think its because I am over thinking the whole thing, being tooo analytical to who I think I am... I dont really know exactly who I am but I definitely have enough to go on for this project haha

I love to laugh (why my pic is of me laughing) I am incorporating different patterns from dresses I love to wear that fit my color scheme. My jewelry will also be incorporated because I have a facination with locks and keys. A quote from "ready and waiting to fall" by mae will be included... hand written on some brown paper... "It's never been more perfect being alive; I've never been so satisfied." which is something I can truly say for the first time in my life. As far as the info.. still working on it because Im not so eloquent with words :( ha. Oh. and my latin name is humorous necessarious... :)

I also wanna throw in a bear somewhere :) ha.

I just started using my pen tool this summer and have really just become obsessed with it.. which is why it will be very prevelent in both of these pieces.

PLEASE COMMENT SUGGESTIONS.. I will most likely be in the digital when it opens.. i just need to get away from my dungeon.

timeline in the working

This is the start of my timeline. Numbers obviously wont be there but that will be the direction of my events. all events will be handwritten in lower case. as far as it having a black background.. dont know. to give some background on the choice of using the bears... i collect them. since i was born ive gotten one every birthday, christmas, occasional easter until around the age of high school... then my sister and i discovered ebay and its been kinda ridiculous since then (everyone has something weird.. this is mine) they really represent a lot in my life and have always been that confort of when things get rough so to me i can see them representing important places in my life :)
