"Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it.
Going into this week and finishing the Mary Buie slide dinner presentation I had a serendipitous moment seeing projects I had done through my internship with the museum around campus. While the museum has ties with the university and this shouldn't have been a surprise, to actually see your work being used in a every setting is a feeling I can even describe. It's like when you're elementary school and you and your classmates have all written responses off the same question. As a child our professor would choose one of the responses that was written the best, hiding the students name in fear that the student may get embarrassed if pulled apart from the class. The sense of anonymous and to see your peers' true reactions, good and bad, is honestly the most empowering, terrifying, addicting feeling one can have, at least I think.
Going into this next week off the dinner presentation, I began creating scavenger hunt info cards for Bailey's Woods Trails, an link between the University Museum and Rowan Oak. With the only information given to me is a list of directions for those taking the trails (written by an Eagle Scout completing a service project), I literally have so much creative freedom with this project. Personally this internship has been the most beneficial because of the hands on, on the job, type of teaching I have received from Amy.
