Thoughts of Chalk



This is the final blog required for my technology class however I'm going to continue to use it because I've found I like having somewhere to talk about school and general life stuff that my family and friends can read. This semester has been a difficult one and I'm happy that it is coming to a close. Only two more weeks and then it's summer. During summer I am planing on volunteering and basically spending time figuring out "what I want to be when I grow up".

I am also planning on doing the Chalk Walk again :) It's July 10 & 11th on main street if anyone wants to stop by it is always very interesting to see everyones work! The squares are 8 feet by 8 feet and it's a good twelve hour day but I love it. Our square last year was a rose window design done in bright colors. I think it turned out really amazing. This year the award categories are: Fort Wayne Architecture, Fort Wayne Native American History, Best reproduction of artwork relating to Social Realsim, Trompe l`oeil, People's Choice. My partner in crime wants to do the architecture one however I really do not. Out of the categories I like the social realism or trompe the best.Right now we agree that we won't go for any of the awards and just make an awesome square that we like and the people walking by will. I am currently thinking to make it look like you are looking down a hole at the Winnie the Pooh characters because well I love them :) All I had to work with for an example of what I was thinking was paint so it's terrible, but you get the idea. Now I have talked way too much.

Now to just make it through the next two weeks!!!
