Mary Szustak Project 2

This project was very difficult for me. 2D forms of art tend to be part of my own conventions. I become very uncomfortable at the thought of completing a 3D project. My object choice became the biggest obstacle I stumbled across in this project. The shape of a door hinge is certainly simplistic enough. The measurements are very straight forward. The rust "blobs," on the other hand, turned out terribly. I was unsure how to measure and shape them correctly. It was very difficult working against the difficulty of measurement and form combined with the small scale. I eventually came to the point where I was happy with all of my pieces and began to put them all together. This was where everything began to fall apart, literally. I would put one piece on, and another would fall off. Each time this happened, I would try to reshape the piece and fix the texture of the piece. After the zillionth time of this happening, what I had worked for, and had reworked for, was eventually gone.
