A Big BIG Update!

Hello everyone or whoever follows this blog!
So I haven't been much active here mainly because I have created a different art blog for my college!

Going through my previous posts I have realised I never even updated after the exam results or anything! So here's a mass update about my life after the leaving cert!
I got a lovely 435 points in my lc and a B1 in my art exam. Not gonna lie, I was really hoping for an A but I wasn't far from it. Either way, I got into art college so it's all good!

Art college is fantastic. I have an opportunity to work with fantastic artists which really help me in my development as an artist. Everyone is so unique and inspiring it's such an experience being a part of it all. LSAD is literally heaven on Earth. It's like I wake up every morning, excited about the day. There's always a bit of stressed involved as well with exams and everything but I don't mind at all. At the end of the day I'm doing my thing and I couldn't be more greatful. All this hard job for the past few years has paid off.

I had to create a new art blog because my college uses Tumblr instead of Blogspot. So here's the url if anyone is interested: www.aleksandrazmijowska.tumblr.com 
My art is slightly different there as I'm exploring new ways of portraying my ideas etc. and also we were given a title so my blog is basically a little guide through the progress of my project and a place for all the projects in the future.

Next semester will be based around 3 electives. I will explore each one of them in more depth and then I will have to choose 1 in which I will specialize for the next 3 years.
The ones that I have chosen are; painting, fashion and visual communications (or as they used to call it, graphic design). I'm pretty excited to try them all out!

And here's a little painting a did as a part of my project. My project evolves around the concept of identity. It's all explained in depth on my blog so feel free to check it out.



My project is based around the title of "What if... I had to move back to Poland". It involves a study of my own identity etc. It's quite different to what I've been doing in school but the great thing about art college is that they are open to peoples' suggestions and ideas. I was very lucky to get very understanding tutors who liked my idea.
It would take me a long time to explain everything in depth from the very beginning so just check out my blog if you're interested :)

I'll create a new post where I'll just upload a few pictures of the progress of my project but again, for detailed info check my college blog ;)
