Had a very busy weekend, doing all my paperwork and getting my sketch pad up to date.

We into college this morning to drop off my files etc. Just hope I have done enough. Now that is out of the way, I can re-think my installation, i have time to re-do the lines on the wall and may be use different thread, I am disappointed with the wire as it is tention not working. think it might be because the sculpture studio very cold..

Not going into college until Thursday so that gives me two days complete my show…

The installation outside okay but will have keep going to check the tention on the wire, Inside will have to re-think the lines on the wall as when I went this morning they had started to come away, so I think I will paint them, now I know they work…

Will I finished my installation, not 100% happy with it, but I do not know an artist who is ever happy with their work.

We have our assessment on Tuesday and Wednesday, so we should get feedback late next week, so we will get some more time to had to our work next week.. our private veiw next Friday. So still got time to re-do my installation.. So we will have to wait and see..

I am glad this week over the atmosphere in the college was not good, to many students tired and stressed. I get very upset yesterday so decided to just go home and start again today…

I find it very difficult assessment time, I like putting your soul out there. It is all down to taste and were your tutors like it or not,,,,

Just have all my files to do over the weekend, so I will be up very early on Tuesday to drop them off before 9.30a.m..

I have been reading the other Blogs, I like most of us are getting sress and tired…. Not long to go now.

Got into my space yesterday, floor looks better, spent most of the day working out the way my threads will work in the space, I have to make sure that I do not bloke Traceys space as you have to walk pass my space to get into Traceys…and as I am sharing a big open space with Lindsay, I cannot approach on her space…

Seem to pleasing everyone put myself at the moment, Lindsay and I had talked about bloking out the windows last week. but Lindsay decided yesterday she did not want to do that now.. So I am back to the drawing board with my lighting, as my installation is as much about the shadows as the threads….

I want to SHOUT it is my degree show too.

My tutor came in today, and was pleased with want I am doing so far.. Which was good to hear.

So glad I am outside in the sculpture studios, lots of upset students upstairs in the Fine Art Department, stress and tiredness getting to everyone… we miss most of that were we are.

The 1st and 2nd year students have worked very hard the last week, getting the studios ready. I am so glad i did not have to do it this year. Cleaning the floor was a very shitty job to do…….

4 days left to my assessment, got into college today with the news that the floor in the sculpture studios needs a second coat, so that means I could not go into my space, hopefully tomorrow I can start doing my installation inside… I am starting to get even more worried that I am not going to get a good mark because it is going to be very rushed.

I came home to do my artist statement draft 4.. Still needs some work but the tutors want it in today..

Had catologue proof page today, it is looking good.

Tomorrow is any other day I may get to do some art, fed up with paper work now….

Spent three days outside the sculpture studio,creating an installation. Everyday I have finished and when I go back the next day and look at it with fresh eyes, I am not happy about something.

I am sitting here at the moment reflecting on what I have done today, and decide it is still not right. I am trying to use the space I have got and not change it in anyway, but I don't think it is working….

The wooden batten sticking out like a score thumb, the selection of the wall thats not painted is all I keep looking at.. should I paint it ? Should I use thicker wire ? I am going to paint the wooden batten… I do wish I do not have to use the batten but the college will not let me make to many holes in the wall.

What do you think??????
