My 36 Days of Type project, which I showcased in the Bloom Art Show, was a success. I was able to explore new and fascinating ideas previously left untouched. As I mentioned in my Artist Statement, I used lines and shading to create a sense of unity among the pieces. My use of everyday objects, from a Swiss army knife to pencils, demonstrates even the mundane aspects of life can be morphed into creative art, letter art in this case. As for my method of showcasing, hanging the letters using wires and pins matched the feel of my project because my letters are not stiff and formal. The colours of the wires is also almost identical to the white of the papers. One part of the project I will seek to improve is how recognizable the letters are. One of my other teachers thought my tennis racquet and ball piece was an I instead of a B. I will definitely attempt 36 Days of Type in future years to further delve into unfamiliar areas and mediums of art.

I like this type! It's a great assignment...there is something appealing about the mix of white and dark space, and the glimpse of what each letter makes you think of!
