portfolio review

Ive been thinking all day what I could possibly blog about this week. I'm somewhat sick of Power and although I find it to be a good read I just want to put it to rest for now. Instead I thought I'd focus on what has been consuming my thoughts since 12 am yesterday...portfolio reviews (small text signifying the tension it causes in my brain)

After setting up my work, I was overwhelmed with a sense of satisfaction. even though I dont really like each of the pieces that I did, I felt accomplished with it all right there in front of me. That night I felt at ease and thought this review shouldn't be so bad, that was until I talked to Corrine, she seemed quite nervous about it and the more I talked to her the more nervous I became. Thats when the trouble started.

When I woke up the first thing I thought was, REVIEWS TODAY- great. As I got there around one I was able to see a few students go before me. they made me feel better because it didn't seem as stressful as I had thought...that is until it was my turn..DUN DUN DUNNNN...

I enjoyed doing the review and I'm usually pretty good about receiving criticism and although Krista warned us not to focus on the negative comments, I couldnt help myself. The biggest thing that bothered me was on my invisible cities collage piece, a piece that happens to be one of my favorites. I guess doing work in black and white anymore is bad? I really liked that part of my project because it was different from everyone else's, and I thought it looked friggen sweet. Well, apparently not.

Ahhhhh, now I feel much better, hopefully this will let me sleep peacefully tonight!

p.s. i like my collage
