good morning Professor Jacobs

again

hi Jane my weekend was great very

relaxing how about yours I had a blast I

went to an exhibition at a gallery in

the city and one of the artists was

there I got to meet him unfortunately I

don't remember his name but he does drip

art just like Jackson Pollock it was

really cool and inspiring to meet

someone who creates art for a living wow

what an exciting weekend it sounds like

you really have found some inspiration

for your dripart project how's that

coming along

well that's kind of what I wanted to

talk to you about I think drip art is

really unique and interesting but I'm

having trouble with the assignment what

seems to be the problem I started

working on the project right after going

to the exhibit but I feel like I'm stuck

and I'm worried I won't be able to

create a piece that I'm comfortable

handing in

how so are you confused about the

assignment

I understand the assignment well but you

know how you always tell us to express

ourselves in our art that's why I feel

frustrated with this project I feel like

I'm forcing myself to create something

and it just feels fake what would you do

if you were in my shoes

I completely understand your concern but

that's the whole point of my class I

want you to get out of your comfort zone

let go and try something new

okay I'll give it another shot today and

I'll see if I can push past the feeling

of being stuck that's a good idea and if

you're still feeling uneasy I'm having a

workshop this Saturday and you can join

it if you like you can see some examples

of drip art and watch the actual process

that may be really helpful for you if

you stay for a little while afterward we

can discuss any further questions you

may have

that sounds great thank you so much I

would love to attend the workshop I

think that it's just what I need to help

me finish this project you're welcome

I'm glad you stopped by I'd rather you

be confused and ask questions than say

nothing and struggle with the project

I'll see you on Saturday
