Chronicles of Bobby

Here is documentation of my Space Research Installation Project. My idea was influenced by Mark Jenkins' Storker project from back in'06. My goal was to take it a step beyond his work by interacting with the tape sculpture instead of just observing others' reactions to it.
So here are the Chronicles of Bobby. Enjoy!

Portfolio Review...

On Monday I submitted my portfolio to the Communication Arts Department. I have made some great work these first two semesters, and I feel making it into the department will be the pay off for it all. So Please, keep me in your prayers guys!

In the meantime, here are some illustrations I've experimented with in the last couple of weeks!
Enjoy!

Waiting in Vain...

Okay.

So I was listening to my Bob Marley playlist on iTunes and it began to play "Wait In Vain" off of his Legend Album. Instantly, I found my self relating to most of the poetry in the first verse.
It was one of those, "YOOoooOoO YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH!" moments. So for the fact that we share the same first name and same thoughts, I felt obligated to share this.

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.

From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow through.
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
But the waitin' feel is fine:

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
cause I know I have to do my thing.
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;
I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,

cause if summer is here,
I'm still waiting there;
Winter is here,
And I'm still waiting there.

*I don't plan on feeling like this for long ;)

Just thinking...

If I draw nothing on paper
but paint memories on the concave walls of my skull

I must be a poet.

AND

If I turn my head 90 degrees to the side
to watch airplanes nosedive through a cerulean sky

I must know it.

More drawings!
