“maybe not so much defining as finding” I love this as poetic way of telling about your curiosity. I’m also interested that your aesthetic interest in the more blurry “wrong”er image at teh beginning. I wonder if you might talk/think more about that (could be in a reply to this comment, or might be another post, depending how deep you want to go). And I super appreciate that you see the value of moving on for the lesson it shows, even though you may not “like” it. I think it’s so important in studio practice to let go of what you like in the interest of what you can find out, and you seem to be onto that! Very exciting revelations for me to read.

I am glad you like my front page, I am working with the D Center now to make my website more updated so bear with the strange current format! I actually went in again after I posted this blog, so hopefully the leg is aligned now. Otherwise are all the details looking ok? Thanks a lot!! -Abigail

A: 1. Love your front image with face turned away, blue hair and the typography of your name in the middle of the view–wonderful focal point. 2. I think the chair drawing is looking lively and delicious. I would look at the lenth of the front chair leg (unit measurement from its top to its bottom) and compare it to the height of the chair back and the width of the chair seat (or something else that it equals that you have already drawn). It looks like it might be too low / too long, but just check it out and see. You could also double check by laying a horizontal alignment across its base and seeing the size/unit relationship of that space to the bottom of the other legs. Great work!!
