OCAD- 3rd Year Projects
Sept/ 2010

I’ve just started my third year at OCAD this week. I am excited but at the same time a bit terrified with where my work will take me. Maybe terrified isn’t the best word to use but I know that once I start, I can’t stop. Art school gives me the time I need to release whatever it is I need to release. I don’t feel guilty for taking the time to do it, either. Most of my courses do revolve around the Liberal Studies, Sociological component of my degree for first term, but I have switched my major to Painting and Drawing and can’t wait for the outcome of it all. So come by, new work will be posted all the time. I look forward to all of it.

I may have had the coolest job at the Canadian National Exhibition. While fairgoers broiled in the midday heat yesterday, OCAD students, including myself, were shut up in a walk-in cooler, sculpting blocks of butter into works of art. We spent about seven hours a day inside the box, which is chilled to about 10C, emerging occasionally for breaks, while spectators watch them through a glass wall. This year, the Ex’s butter sculptures must follow a “You Are What You Eat” theme.
