Compositional Study for 'The Hour Glass'
Evelyn De Morgan
Here Jane Morris poses for De Morgan's oil painting, The Hour Glass, conceived as a pictorial 'echo' of Beethoven's 'Waldstein' Sonata, which ends on 'a sudden voice of triumph'. It is a meditation on mortality which in De Morgan's spiritualist philiosophy was the gateway to a finer life.
Aged sixty-five, Jane Morris was an apt model for the figure. She shared her love of music with the De Morgans, who were 'dear old friends'. The tapestry sketched in the background evokes those at Kelmscott Manor, although is not copied from them.

Drawing of a nude from Art 120, 1998. Dabbling in surrealism here. The model was sitting on a green bathrobe and I thought it would be cool to turn it into a landscape.
August's color design class challenge was with analogous colors. I've been doing t-shirts and thread painting with a picture taken of a serpentinite rock slab Monte has. I print the picture from my computer, through the ink-jet printer, onto iron-on transfer paper. I decided to have it be my base "material" for the art quilt, along with a photo of a rock formation reflection Monte took in Norway. Then I printed some other photos reflecting tools and scenes from his geology world.
Serpentinite is like the origin of life substance (Monte of course would say this differently). It's related to the oil world. Origin relates to DNA. When Googling DNA, I saw lots of spiraling images, so was thinking spiral or diagonal when laying out the images. When taking geologist/scientists on a field trip through California, Monte took a picture of an oil bubble, capturing his and Stan's reflection in the bubble. I put the bubble image somewhat in the center.
So the dominant analogous color is green shades with some blue as accents. Then I printed a saying he's had in his office for years -
"Little boys who pick up rocks
either go to prison or become geologists.
"Geologists are Boy Scouts who hated to give up camping
when they went to college, so they majored in geology.
"A geologist listens to more silly questions
than any other human, and he must
weigh each answer with the greatest of skill.
"Have pity on him. He's just as lonesome as he looks,
He'd love to tell you everything he knows,
but he doesn't know how."
I was going to dye some material to add to the composition, but decided the photo image materials were enough. After stitching it all together I couched a variegated green yarn around each picture - this is the "quilting" thru the layers. There is a bamboo batting and a camo material backing. I crocheted a long "string" and attached it all around as the edging. I was going to crochet a lot of rectangles with the yarn to fill in the edges making it a total rectangle, but Monte likes it best with it's funky perimeter.
Assefaw Bariagaber, Ph.D., director of the Post-Conflict State Reconstruction and Sustainability certificate program and professor at Seton Hall's School of Diplomacy and International Relations, led a group of 15 students on an African Union study tour in Ethiopia from March 5 to March 15, during the University's spring break. The tour included both cultural highlights of Ethiopia's rich history and academic seminars on the African Union, which is headquartered in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital.
"The opportunity to participate in this sort of study abroad program was one of the things that drew me to Seton Hall,"says diplomacy master's student John Pollock. "As someone who studied archeology and paleoanthropology as an undergraduate, I'm particularly thrilled to visit the National Archeological Museum to see Lucy [one of the earliest human ancestors ever discovered]."

These are just color studies- I drew the circles, scanned them, and then printed blocks of them so I could test colors on them before I committed to an entire watercolor painting.
The Loyola Program in India offers students the opportunity for summer study in regions of North India that are striking for their cultural diversity, natural beauty and historical richness.

My wife studying for an exam. Converted to Black & White, Shadows and Highlights tweaked to produce this look. I wanted to make it look quite harsh to reflect the students mood at the time!
8/52 [Study Process]
This weeks theme was "Books" so before i went to sleep, i thought of this idea, and to remember it, i got up from bed and actually wrote down the detail on the PC. Today (sunday), I got around to doing this, and also doing actual studying. Yep, too much procrastinating during the weekdays. I wanted to do this orig...inally in a library setting, but figured that i might not get permission to do it there so i just made a setting in my house. I would have preferred the library though. Well tell me what you guys think.
please view as a series
No time like the present to really take a look at oneself....I spent the afternoon snapping photos of myself (I know...how vain.....) as a self-reflective study. (c:
I came out with loads of postable images. I tried different body positions and concentrated on the use of space around me. I'll post a sample of them over the next few days.
one thing I do know is that I need a haircut...luckily thats been scheduled with my favorite stylist Lauren. Whom I need to photograph again come to think of it...hmm....(c:
