This morning, Becky and I woke up
at 6:30am to get to the studio early. I’m pretty sure I had a dream/nightmare
about my book last night so it was a relief to get up and just start working. I
finished making the accordion part of my book and I like it so far. For the
first few hours of working with the book (it was a wrinkly/glue-y/ugly mess
until I finished constructing it) I hated it at first. Thankfully, it’s getting
better though because I had a meeting with Prof. Doll and Hannah and they gave
me some feedback on my story and they gave me a few ideas for where to go with
my book. So it was a helpful meeting but overwhelming because there’s so much
to do before our final critique on Thursday! For lunch we had alfredo pasta,
green beans, and ham/cheese egg things Weird, I know. But it was good.
After lunch I went back to the
studio to practice stamping my linoleum alphabet stamps. This was a messy
process as well but after I spent some time on that, I took my laptop and
headed over to Blue Bar (the café with wifi) and I had another cappuccino and
pastry.
After dinner I went back to the
monastery to finish my laundry (although it was STILL a little bit wet) and I
just hung out in the library/classroom for a while. It was soon time for dinner
then back to work at the studio for a little while before bed. Other than that,
nothing else has really happened today! Tomorrow I’m so excited to go for a run and go to the market.
That’s all I have planned for the weekend… and I’ll be working on my book. A
lot. Here are a few pictures of my accordian book so far:

| One side of my book is all texture from the city (this was a homework assignment from another day) |

| The other side is a bunch of conte designs |
Looks good! Can't wait to see the finished product:)
