My puppet nears completion!
Today in puppetry my friend made the statement that nothing is ever complete, she originally said this in reference to her artwork, but then extended to to everything. I think it's a ridiculous claim. Not only do I reach stages of completion in my own work, but many things are completed every day.
I think the issue lies in goals. If you have no concrete goals then nothing you make will ever be complete. If I set out to "make something beautiful", then what can I use to judge to say whether or not it has reached a complete stage of beauty?
Whereas, if my goal were to be something along the lines of "paint my room", then I have clearly defined and explicit points or reference to see if my goal has been met, and reached completion.
The Decemberists' album The Hazards of Love continues to blow me away. They also increase my vocabulary and make me want to read more.
In Algebra today I learned of synthetic division.
Chris and Will made a video of their puppets. Will's puppet is an old man, marvelously painted, also the clothing is nicely done and is accurate, he has socks and his pants are too high. Chris's puppet looks like a street prophet, he's painted crazily and to make his clothing Chris took an old sweatshirt of his, cut it into small bits, and then hot glued them together, it was really effective.
If they upload the video I'll post a link.
I NEED TO REMEMBER TO LISTEN TO THE HAZARDS OF LOVE. GAH.
