The Minnesota State Fair is coming up and I will be competing with several pieces from my AP portfolio and additionally creating a few more in the next couple of weeks.

Update on previous post

Entering Quality

It is time for Quality, so I have been brainstorming about what to use for my top 5!
Im considering doing:
- A watercolor
- A digital image poster
- A bredth bump up (not sure which yet)
- A concentration overlap
- A piece from last year
- A pencil or colored pencil drawing
- A charcoal drawing
obviously that is more than 5, so its just some ideas I have been playing with. Here is a digital poster I have been working on, its not finished, I have already changed it from this a little, but just to give an idea. Im not sure I like it since it doesnt have a good focal point really. but im gonna work on that and see where it goes.
