Exhibition Day!

Shattered, all this drinking of wine and talking about your concepts and ideas with family and friends (who I'm very grateful to for coming along!) - it's a hard life being an art student, I just want to sleep. But I also wanted to stick some photos up that I took after I completely finished setting up at about 11am today - it's taken long enough!
And I know pride is sometimes frowned upon but I'm pretty chuffed, it looks almost exactly how I envisioned..
Real leaves and bunting (can't go far wrong with bunting!) - Unfortunately the poor bush that I picked to hack at and pin up for my exhibition is now looking considerably worse for wear.

Close-up's of Max's treehouse, it was kinda sweet to hear someone look at my work and say "Oh look, a treehouse! I want to live in there!".

Grass - Way way back at the start of the building process of this final piece I made a rag-rug out of different shades of green fabric, this made a lovely lush carpet for my tree to sit on, I only wish I'd limited the range of colours as I made it - it'd be nicer if it was more grass coloured.

My mini-me/avatar on my Artist Statement, she's holding onto the top of my statement which states where I'm headed next year and what my ideas were about in making this project, I thought I'd make a version of me that matched the rest of my work rather than just a photo of my mug.

And that's it! So close to finishing college now it's scary, the exhibition'll be up until the end of the week, anyone want a tree?
