I couldn't do it in one piece, but at least my modest little chair didn't break under me. It was the best I could've hoped for! I did this project in Ken Horii’s class.

Cardboard Boat, no tape (it had to make it across the lake) 3. 200 self portraits in a week. 4. Chuck Close painting (pixelated self) 5. Microscope painting with gouache w/Gerry Imomem 6. many others...anyone else for more... yup, it was merlin.

Man that was brutal, that was the moment I knew i was at art school. I've think I had Merlin Szasz that semester. My design was pretty much a failure. The class next door had to build a bridge with the same rules that they piled bricks on. One thing I think our whole class learned was not to get to attached to your work-most of them broke.
