As one of our assignments here, we have to come up with three sentences consisting of six words and then use at least one of them to create stuff. I've been rolling around some ideas in my head and i think my first sentence is going to be.. "Sometimes I like to collect things." Might perhaps change the wording of it but the heart of the idea is collection. Even back home, I've done a lot of collection, from notes to wood scraps and anything that strikes me. At the school they have a junk pile filled with scraps of wood, metal, tires, etc. Even bikes. I thought about trying to take some of the bikes apart but they're all pretty rusted up and there's not really the proper tools here. (It makes me miss my bike shop boys.) I did manage to find a bike seat already separated, and a paint pealing wood, and a wavy piece of fiberglass. And a long the shore last night I found some glass, cool rocks, and chunks of clay pots. I'm not sure what i'm doing with anything yet but i'm going to keep collecting things that speak to me. Might be cool to make a box or some way of holding and displaying my collections. I also think I want to do more acrylic prints with some of the photos i've been taking. Again, not sure what i'll do from there but maybe something will hit me later.
