Visiting Artist James Wines

James Wines was amazing.  I thought his work was very impressive and his designs creative.  Examples of his work show his artistic talents.  I read up on him and he was first a successful sculptor and graphic designer.  His use of lines shows with this background.  His green sense was beyond most. 

I am impressed with being able to be exposed to someone like this.  He is passionate and inspiring.  Architectural art and design really interests me. My work with detail and lines in old buildings helped me feel connected with his work. Like his concern for the "EARTH" What an asset to Penn State!

I am really getting into making my own frames to fit in with my work.  They are part of the piece.  Rusty old metal, scraps.....getting into junk yards, trash cans and other treasures!  Exciting.

Feeling a little taxed with all the Art Theory and trying to get the dialogue down. Lots to process.  Working on understanding relational aesthetics.  Kind of like relationships.  Have to break it down.
