Final Reflection

Final Reflection: I came into 3D design with a relatively positive outlook, I had really enjoyed 2D and I was excited to try out something new... I was confident in my ability to pull off an A and continuously turn in my work on time. That positivity continued throughout first project (the relief sculpture) I really liked what I had made and the process was fun! The next project turned out to be a little bit more difficult, we had to actually create something without starting with a piece of paper and I realized I hated that... I didn't know where to go with it and the freedom was overwhelming. Because of this working in class was a mental struggle for me and I admittedly slacked off in class, that obviously hindered my ability to hand it in on time and then when the zero became a reality I rushed to finish it and was thoroughly disappointed in the outcome. This theme continued on for the rest of the semester, and as I got more discouraged with myself the quality of my work dwindled even more. To the point of my last project of the year being wholeheartedly embarrassing. All in all I realized that 3D design is not something that I have the patience or inspiration to work with and I am sad to say that my sophomore art career had to end on this note.
