This morning I got to fly a drone. HA! I need a lot of practice, but it was so much fun. I also got to talk with Kevin Finisterre who taught the drone class this semester and hopefully I’ll get to build one with him soon.

Though if I build one and somehow manage to film something with it and turn that into stop-motion… mwahahaha!

So I shall attempt to make another and integrate it into the piece. More glaze testing this week, because finding a rusty/ peeling black paint glaze is harder than it sounds. I love science!

Day 14
Making paper pulp to add to my clay body. Yay for experiments and science. Yes, I know this is art school, but art can’t survive without science.
