Took a trip to Ventura today with some classmates, and brought my plaster hand from mold-making. The hand was created using an Alginate mold (for life-casting) and poured plaster. It was a beautiful day, bought a literary publication from 1907, went to a few pubs, and ‘like a homing-pigeon’ came back to the studio.
I had gone with a plan to take pictures of the hand for Day 01, however, it was actually a struggle thinking of what to make with it. Finally came up with something I was happy with. The project has really begun. Less than half an hour until I can start thinking up ideas for Day 02. Also thought this other image came out kinda nice, might have to get some of the mold-making supplies, its a medium I’m not at all familiarized with.

photo time: most of the day
image time: 3 hours (from idea to completion)
