Joe and Shelley are holding each other accountable for making artwork regularly. Rules:
By 5PM each Fri., 3 new pieces need to be posted; the work doesn't have to be good, but it needs to be made. By 10PM each Sunday, they need to have responded to one other's new work via blog or phone. The slacker that misses the work posted deadline owes the other participant a photo book of their choice from amazon.com worth $45 or less. Miss feedback deadline, owe the other a six pack.

This week was a fucking struggle... I need to get my ass in gear.
Getting reacquainted with the Blad.
New one for Accommodations... Chicago, IL.
A super rough sketch... it needs something more going on in the background... maybe a person?
re: the big, vertical one. It's beautiful, and formally very interesting.
Question: Is this (and the ones in last week's post) meant to be a continuation of the same body of work you did as your thesis?
If so, I keep looking for something to transform the meaning of the space in the image. The others had some incongruent element that really changed the space and gave them deeper "meaning". "Meaning"= Some sense that the place is not as it should be, or that it was used more as a metaphor for a feeling than as a picture of the space, itself. Does that make sense?
Still, I recognize that those are older and that you're digging into newer territory now. ... more to come.
I want to see more of these "Accommodations" pics. I like them!
