I was able to add something to the print that made me feel a lot better about it, however the triangle moved off the spot I intended it to be, but I was still able to turn the print in a way that I felt like suited it after this mistake in the process.

After finishing up my final mono-print I got home and looked at it and while I feel confident in the print, it also appears unfinished in a way. I can add more color to it however the composition I created seems more effective in conveying the mage I want to show, however I also feel like I should continue to add onto it. The swirls I created in the middle are something I want to keep within the image, but I also feel that the center of the piece is the part that is missing something. I shouldn't let this fear of messing the objects and orientation up, however I think that I will have to overcome this if I want to be satisfied with this piece.
On November 24, the art classes visited the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts which showed ancient Chinese Artifacts which were amazing. It was a one in a life time chance to see such beauties and I am happy to have seen such wonderful items from a foreign country in my own hometown. The artworks were beautiful and were unlike many sculptures and paintings I had sen before. the exhibit was also very informative and I learned of the European influences in the lives of the royalty Chinese at the time as well as the artwork. It was also very informative in describing the use of certain items and their significance to the rulers during the time period which it was set in.
I discovered this photographer through his very interesting photographs taken with a x-ray machine. After finding his website I saw that he also took photos of cities in action, the daily lives of people and other captivating scenes. This use of such a strange instrument to capture the inner workings of an object is unique and very fascinating. It is interesting to see the way things look in the inside. To me these pictures also show a different world to the one we see and makes it even more beautiful. Fabian Oenfer is a photographer and artist born in Switzerland. His art captures images using every day instruments such as sound waves, light and magnetic ferroliquids. His works also features layering many images over each other to create the illusion of a galaxy or a car who's parts are seemingly levitating off of it. I love these images for there use of colors and how using everyday things such as sound,light, and every a sphere and a can of paint to create beautiful pictures and organic shapes. I would love to try some of his methods as they seem like an interesting experiences to see how his process is and I would also like to find out more about his thinking and working processes when he decided to create these amazing images. These two mono-prints are two of my first prints and my favorites out of my the first day. They were very simple, free, and accidental, however I enjoyed my last few prints which were fun to create and were something that I wanted to make rather than me mixing ink and putting it on the paper.
