Some Photos From the Show

Flowers Overnight

The flowers overnight are now all showing colors of green, red and black.

Montserrat Grads

So I made the list of people who have passed through Montserrat and as I was doing so I talked with McVey and we got on the discussion of making the list more interesting to view. After some ideas went through my head it came to mind to have the type to start cracking and I manipulated the types letter space to cause gaps to form where I then went in and started to exaggerate them to be seen with ease.

Wednesday Works

I noticed no change in color to the carnations when I used india ink to dye the water. I change the water and bought some black food coloring which seems to be working much better. Color began to show within about an hour in one of the flowers. The rest have been showing hints as I have been working in my studio for a few hours. They are oddly starting Green. I'm not sure if that's going to be the final color or just a stage. Time will tell. Green would work fine for my work though. By the time I left the studio three hours later, all flowers had dye showing.

Three Hours

I also decided to make a GIF to connect the flowers to my show a tad more. I wanted another landscape piece to balance the water bottles at the ocean and to incorperate a flower GIF instead of just shots.

Show Experiments.

I'm attempting to dye white flower black during my show. This is the experiment though. I've done this several times with food coloring but never ink and black so I wanted to make sure this worked the way I expected or in some better way that will wow me.

Day One

I also edited my green GIF to the final form and got materials needed for the show set up over the weekend and made my layout.
