8/31/07

I started out the morning of this free day by going to a street in a nearby neighborhood that had many art supply stores. This was really my first experience buying something completely on my own. I bought some bamboo paper, watercolor paint, and ink for my individual project in Shanghai.

Later in the evening, Katie and I locked ourselves in our room, rearranged the furniture, and had studio time. I was really inspired by the street culture in China and the common place activities that occur in the open. I chose to illustrate a scene I had come upon, many times actually, where people hang their laundry to dry on power lines, due to lack of space.
