STUDIO
My studio was located just off of the main court yard. My favorite studio to date. Beautiful natural light, tall ceilings and big white walls. So much magic to be made here.
THE GARDEN
In between paint layers, the garden was the perfect place to rest and rejuvenate.
EXPLORATION
I did a lot of exploring of my practice. Some deep contemplation about my process and my reasons for making creative choices took place.
SEMI-COMPLETE THOUGHTS
This is where we see the birth of the Big Girl Panties project. Most complete thoughts centered around mood exploration and trying understand new materials that could be used for this work.
PROCESS
This residency offered a lot time to experiment and play with my time and materials. I made a conscious choice to limit the amount of materials I brought with me. Instead, I focused on acquiring a majority of my materials from the local area. The only things I took with me were: my sisters 6 grade field trip photos of Monterey Beach from an old disposable camera, my hot glue gun, and my staple gun.
