old shoes, new shoes

these are the exact same pair of shoes. i hate having to replace things.

i am not throwing the old ones out. i am too attached to them. i will just wear them for special occasions (like doing work in the plaster studio).

plaster clock

so i made this project for sculpture class. i threw a quarter cup of plaster at the same spot on a wall (i covered it with paper first) every 5 minutes, 100 times (500 minutes). after i threw the plaster, i took a picture. so i have this flip book i made of the plaster growing, and i made this poster too. i really love the shape the plaster made against the wall.

here is the poster. i am really pleased with it.

way too much, but i like this .. this is the actress that we were talking about earlier.
