My Book of Days project is nearly over, just the rest of December to post!11- Went to the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts museum and was especially captivated by Women in Motion: 150 Years of Women’s Artistic Networks at PAFA and Joan Semmel: Skin in the Game. I attempted to emulate Semmel’s riotously colorful self-portraiture here. 12- Visited Ellis Island, and was entranced by all the photos of immigrants. So many serious eyes, often defiant or worried for what was ahead. (The occasional kid in the photos who hadn’t gotten the memo and was grinning hugely was a fun secondary treat, haha.) 13- Had a day of being a bumpkin in the big city; between The Guggenheim, The Jewish Museum, and stumbling into Saks’ christmas display, there were wonders around every corner! 14- I was supposed to take a train home. It was so delayed that I wouldn’t have been able to catch my bus connection in Boston. Boo. 15- I was able to have my ticket transferred and the travel plans went off without a hitch. The ride was so smooth that I was able to ink the week’s worth of Dailies with only minimal mistakes! The same could not be said for the busride, it was too rattly for much of anything. 16- Hung out with my friend and their cat Artemis hopped on my lap!!! I gave her another of the goddess’ epithets, She Who Soothes. 17- Nice to feel wanted in the ol office, y’know? 18- I hadn’t scanned cards for months. When I went back to check, the last one was… also about not scanning anything for months, because I never learn. 19- Here 2 help, as best I can… 20- I was practicing digital art techniques from Adobe MAX and came upon a tutorial by DKNG to photoshop enamel pin mockups. I had a merry time photoshopping fake pins out of random old pieces from my folders! -- source link
