This has been a long and strange year, but I feel that I have learned a lot and grown a lot in my work. At the start of this year, I began working with textiles for the first time and its very clear to see how much I have improved and how much I learned about working with textiles. I learned how to make my work much cleaner, more professional in the stitching. I have learned how to work with new types of fabric as well and how to better create my own patterns. Furthermore, I have been able to grow in the painting aspect of many of my pieces, as I was able to refine my painting skills to better shade my work and create a better depth. During the year I also created a painting on canvas and a digital piece, both of which I enjoyed as well. My favorite piece however was my second semester piece, which composed of three clothing pieces, a shirt, vest, and skirt which I painted. I especially enjoyed the armor I made as part of this work with scale mail pauldrons connected with chain and wrist guard/gloves with flowers. This was my most complicated piece and the one I found most enjoyable during the process of, as well as afterwards as I felt it was a very interesting piece. I hope to continue working with textiles next year as well as possibly accompanying some of my work with paintings on different surfaces as well. I am excited to see where my work goes in the future.
