"I just wanted to find out where the boundaries were.
I've found out there aren't any.
I wanted to be stopped but no one will stop me."

OUR FIRST BLOG...


this will be the place where we (sarah francis hollis' drawing iv class), will collect together our visual ideas, sketches, in-progress work, and overall contemporary inspirado for our class, so that its available for discussion, (in relation to our work and progress).


as an assignment in this class, students are asked to maintain a 
'contemporary drawing journal', where they must collect a minimum 
of 50 images of contemporary drawings (made 1970 or after) in 
some organized format, (i.e. sketchbook, blog, website, video 
journal, etc.).  this blog will be a collection of our ongoing 
findings, as well as documentation of our investigations 
throughout this semester.  with this, we hope to figure out 
what we like and admire; what confuses us, what attracts us, 
(and so on), in contemporary drawing.  the resolution of this 
effort will be some kind of conclusion/commentary on the 
questions: 


what makes a drawing, a drawing?

what makes contemporary drawing, contemporary?
