About Me

My photo
Hi, I'm Jada Newhouse and I'm a Photography major at Sam Houston State University! I'm not very confident in my own work, but I hope to gain a lot from the WASH program. I have experience in both photography and graphic design thanks to High School yearbook and Dallas Teenage Newspaper. I'm a huge nerd who plays Pokemon and Harry Potter rpg games. I love Harry Potter (Love might be an understatement). I'm easily entertained and an overall great person to get to know! I look forward to meeting many others JUST LIKE ME! :)

Cardboard Spheres!!!

I finally finished all of my sphere's today! Well more like yesterday, but you get the point. I had many ideas for this assignment, but putting it together was tricky. I changed ideas a few times with each one! But the final product was satisfying, and I hope I grasped the concept of the whole shibang!

So here is the first sphere: The surface/skin of a 
sphere. 
Basically I just wet some cardboard and made a ball! It was an interesting experience.
Next: The skeleton of a sphere.
This one started out as a pop-up sphere. But I soon realized that wouldn't work, so I went with this and loved it!
 Last but not least: A sphere without using glue or any adhesives.
My initial idea for this one was to make something like a mobile. However, the cardboard that holds it all together is a little flimsy, so it's a dancing sphere if you try to make it stand up on its own. :)
And there you have it, 3 cardboard spheres!
I enjoyed this experience, yet I don't think I ever want to see another piece of cardboard in my life. Oh wait, we still have a larger than life project. >_<
I suppose I can survive another cardboard project. :)
I look forward to what the rest of the semester brings.
