Why take Printmaking?

It's Friday night
And she's all alone.
He's a MILLION miles away!

So I'm dressed to kill in an apron, and I've been in Boliou (carleton's art building) for approx. 10 consecutive hours. And that's not even rounding up by more than 10 minutes. Here's what it looks like to let loose on Friday night:





Sooo fun.




SURPRISE!! TWIST ENDING!!! Because this is really and truly how I'd spend every weekend, no joke. And it doesn't really matter that I don't get a choice, it's still fun. Spending 5 hours prepping the stupid copper plate to do a mezzotint is actually super worth it because then you get THIS:!!!!



And yeah, maybe it would've taken me a lot less time to just draw the stupid chess piece with graphite or something a little less impossible than a copper plate. But get this .. I can print out this thing over and over again! Like, a hundred times! Or a thousand! Over and over again!! Nelly and Tim McGraw would have to write a whole new duet about it!!




OVER AND OVER AGAIN!

That's what it feels like to find out you made it into Carleton's hip hop supafly hoes and bros dance company. Also known as Whoa! (the exclamation mark is part of the group's name, AND expresses my excitement..)

Basically, being a member of this dance crew puts me on a name to name basis with Chris Brown and Jeremih.
