An Undulating Course: Rocking Chairs and the History of the World
since my show opened yesterday I thought it would be appropriate to post pictures from the gallery and of my actual work. I’m very happy with how everything came out!
this is my artist statement. I typed it up on my typewriter.
this is what the gallery looks like, four pictures on each wall with a little living room set up with a rocking chair at the far wall.
here are the illustrations themselves. I’ve included both the scans of the illustrations and pictures of them framed.
the text next to each framed illustration is an excerpt from the stories that correlate with the actual illustration. I typed them up on my typewriter as well (you can see the typewriter on the table in the first picture of the gallery).
I also made a book! with the stories AND the illustrations! I wanted to write a ridiculous preface, so I made up a pen-name, Thatcher P. Willersnaps. The books are 8.5 x 8.5 and I am selling them for $20 (so if you want one let me know). 
it is weird to think that this whole process is basically over. I still have my final review with the faculty and on thursday night I have to take everything out of the gallery. I’ve been so wrapped up in this for so long my family had to remind me that my birthday is on wednesday.
anyways, I feel incredibly relieved, accomplished, and just plain happy.
