PROP AND GENEROSITY: Portraits of the Class


PORTRAITS OF THE CLASS: For my generosity assignment, I wanted to shift and provide a gift that everyone would benefit from, professional portraits of the entire class. I loved doing this, and had a few take aways.

1. Speed running portraits is difficult. It takes skill and practice.

2. Instead of allowing everyone to choose their ideal portrait spot, I wish I would have previously chosen a singular properly lighted space for portraits, without giving the option. 

3. Not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera, and it takes practice to teach them how to be more comfortable. 

Below, I'll leave several of the results!

OBJECT #1: Flowers on mason jar  I use mason jars for everything, from food storage, to vases, to glasses for my coffee. I find them easy to use, multipurpose, affordable, and good for the environment. And, they aren't made with plastic, so  I don't have to worry about that affecting the quality of my food or beverages. In this project, I wanted to explore mason jars and their multi use process as I work to cut out single use plastics in my day to day life. These flowers represent life and nature that comes with sustainable steps.

I come from a very minimalist family. Our home has always had simplistic and clean decorations with minimal clutter. And with this, we have always kept on to very few sentimental objects and traditions. However, we do have one yearly tradition that requires very little space in storage.  My grandma, who is 100% Swedish, passed on a yearly tradition from her mother and her mother's mother. Every Christmas, they would bake traditional Swedish cookies for all of their neighbors and close friends. And, she would keep butcher paper on the wall to write down recipes, make grocery shopping lists, and create to do lists, displaying it to everyone in the kitchen. After she didn't need the list anymore, she would tear off the paper and write down something new. So, in this project, I wanted to do something similar by displaying her recipes on butcher paper as an art piece.
