		<title>Altered Book: Final Statement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My altered book summarizes the reason why people censor different forms of media, and what this censorship does to the artist. Censorship reveals a larger instinct of human nature to shut out whatever they don’t agree with. The censors merely act on this instinct. In the process, they assign their own ethic to others, assuming [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=megancd.wordpress.com&blog=5045926&post=85&subd=megancd&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>First Thursday Scavenger Hunt</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Something funny -  Ken Shores, Feather Fetish totem, Pulliam Deffenbaugh gallery.
Sorry, Pulliam Deffenbaugh&#8217;s gallery owner wouldn&#8217;t let me take any pictures, and this particular work isn&#8217;t on the website. It looks like a chestnut with feathers, hence the hilarity.

		<title>Relief Print Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Block prints seem a lot easier to work with than paper and pencil.  Pressure from using the cutting tools kept my hands from shaking, letting me create clear precise shapes and add a greater amount of detail than normal. I should focus on drawing more dynamic curvilinear lines. Another student also assumed that all three [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=megancd.wordpress.com&blog=5045926&post=83&subd=megancd&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Final Altered Book Proposal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ My book is a 29-essay pamphlet assembled by my Freshman Inquiry professor Jamie Ross. Jamie named the pamphlet with our class name, UNST 192/193G- The Work of Art. As this was never an official title, I will refer to the book as “Jamie’s Pamphlet” instead. The essays from Jamie’s Pamphlet examine the external issues [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=megancd.wordpress.com&blog=5045926&post=79&subd=megancd&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Tesselate blog reflection</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had a really hard time picking a motif for this tesselate. Making a scheme with two different shapes fit together AND clearly represent a real-life object is needlessly complicated. I went through several themes, both simple and complicated, before I finally decided on the fish/turtle theme. Defining the balance between positive and negative space [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=megancd.wordpress.com&blog=5045926&post=65&subd=megancd&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Altered Book Proposal #3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[  
My book is a 29-essay pamphlet created by my Freshman Inquiry professor Jamie Ross. It has no title aside from the class name, UNST 192/193G- The Work of Art. The essays cover a variety of artistic disciplines, including photojournalism, photography, movies, music, tattooing, traditional paint-based artwork, billboard design, and poetry. However, it does [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=megancd.wordpress.com&blog=5045926&post=76&subd=megancd&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Altered Book Proposal #2 &#8211; Politics in Art</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
My book is an essay collection that covers a variety of artistic disciplines. It includes essays on photojournalism, photography, movies, music, censorship, tattooing, traditional paint-based art pieces, conformity, billboards, and poetry. Eugene Smith writes about his experiences documenting the mercury-poisoning incident in Minamata, Japan. Susan Sontag writes about the numbing effect of various kinds of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=megancd.wordpress.com&blog=5045926&post=70&subd=megancd&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Color Wheel and Fabric Swatches</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, this was my second time working with Goache, and my first time using it seriously. I&#8217;ve never created a color wheel in my life, so this was a new experience.
I dedicated a good amount of time to mixing colors, but I still can&#8217;t get them exactly right. I guess that will take practice. While [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=megancd.wordpress.com&blog=5045926&post=58&subd=megancd&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Altered Book Proposal 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Many people spend their careers analyzing artwork. When they view a piece, they theorize the artist’s motives and inspiration. My Freshman Inquiry class discussed dozens of essays written by these theorists, and my altered book is a compilation of the writings we discussed in class. These writings discuss “works of art” in the loosest sense [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=megancd.wordpress.com&blog=5045926&post=53&subd=megancd&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
