Senior Thesis Update

Happy holidays to everyone!
This is going to be a light post this week.
It's April 6th, and I've got exactly 17 days until my senior thesis project is due.
I'm on my final two pieces, and excitement is definitely building as I begin to wrap up the project.
It's been a long, yet incredibly fast couple of months. I've learned so much by being in charge of my own personal project, but that's a post for another time.

My senior illustration class is putting on a gallery show to showcase all of our thesis projects. The show is at the Joseloff Gallery, on campus, at the University of Hartford. The opening reception is on Saturday, May 2nd, from 5-7pm. It's shaping up to be a great event! There will be food and live music, and we will be sending out postcards to local and regional art directors and publishers, inviting them to attend. Everyone is welcome, so if you're in the area please join us!

In order to fund all of this, we've set up an Indiegogo campaign that I mentioned in last week's post. There's only two days left! At the time of writing, we've raised $300, about half of our goal! Thank you to all who have donated so far, and I ask all readers to please consider donating even just a dollar. Every dollar helps!

If you can, please donate here.

I've been updating my website, Facebook, Instagram, DeviantART, Pinterest, Twitter, and Tumblr with all of my senior thesis pieces as they are completed.

And to wrap up, here is a great quote by Jeremiah Patterson:

“Creativity comes from creation”
