\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This semester has flown by and I haven’t had much time to do anything except work, work, work. Sadly, my blog fell by the wayside. So, tonight, as I looked toward my computer from the middle of a pile of books, pencil firmly gripped between teeth, I decided to take a small break in order to report on the mass hysteria that has transposed in my life. <\/p>\n

This semester, above all, has taught me that there is indeed more to life than photography. How is that? I am in a photography program and steeped up to my knees in every kind of image imaginable, but I feel further away from the medium than I did coming into the program. I think this has to do with two very strong factors from my life; 1. I was an actual working photographer before I came into this program and 2. I was only working in images I made “through the lens”. Both of these factors have changed in my life. I am no longer a working photographer and I am not making images traditionally “through the lens”. I feel like the artist I was when I left my undergrad program. This may seem like a step backwards, however, I have never felt more in touch with my original goals as an artist. This excites me and scares me. I am excited to be finally fulfilling a desire I have had for many years to further my education in the arts and I am scared because I think this might make me less employable than ever. Employ-ability aside, I am glad to have stepped out of the proverbial box I was in while living in San Francisco.<\/p>\n

Things to do:<\/p>\n

Write paper on photography’s relationship to painting<\/p>\n

Create a stereographic image for digital design class<\/p>\n

Put together a presentation on the database<\/p>\n

Attempt to wrap up my critique work for this semester (I will be posting some images during break)<\/p>\n
