Since Monday, my info graphics class has been working on creating a logo for the landscape design students. This summer they're responsible for designing a new landscape layout for the campus and for their designs they asked us to create a logo. So Patrick, Lily, Angie, Sue, and I have been bustin our tooshies sketching and designing away. It was intensive but a great experience! Here's one of my final designs. Minus my name of course.
In my bookmaking class, we bound another book. Today we made the Japanese side-sewn book. It's pretty amazing. I'm loving this class so much as well! Our third project is due Monday. We have to design a book using the accordion book binding and mine is on human memory. I finally got my design together today (at the opera) and cannot wait to get my supplies tomorrow. I'm adding textures other than paper to it!
And tonight I got to go see an opera for free! I think it was an American group traveling Italy, but it was in Italian and beautiful. I only stayed for the first act, but it was beautiful. The singers sang along side with an orchestra which was playing pieces by Mozart. Beautiful.
I left early so I could head up to the dorms to work on some things for classes, but before going up, I bought some gelato from Snoopy Gelateria! Tonight I tried menta which is mint gelato. It was sooo good and sooo green!
Cortona, I love.
