Life drawing- struggled at first but I feel like I'm getting the hang of it feel like I'm enjoying it and I want to develop further. I need to work on the features of the face and I need to work on getting everything in the right proportion.

being in the box
im in my own little world
cracks of light shining through
privacy
maybe too much privacy
personality shines through
hope
trapped
bravery
blocked
shut off
peaceful
surrounded by mirrors- all there is to look at is yourself- everything reflects on you
fixed with your own thoughts and feelings
can be stubborn but free
trapped in your own mind
can only hear past the box don't know whats going off outside
all to see is what u can make out through the cracks
sound-rhythms, echoes
like a chick hatching from an egg
scratches, scraps
no one knows whats going on inside the box, mystery
protected
vulnerable
innocent
a secret to hide
shame
crumbling box, reflects on emotions
exploratory- kids find so much fun with a piece of cardboard why?
torture
restricted
is this by choice or not
Dens, rockets, houses
pretend your in a different reality
a way to escape
characters
games
from another world
could be used as a good prank- humour
the unexpected
whats on the outside can be different to whats on the inside
different size of boxes
uncomfortable
issues with expression

Mina Loy
Mina loy worked as a poet and visual artist in Paris, Florence, and New York City, where he beauty and outlandish behaviour shone at the centre of several avant-grade circles. She made colourful appearances of biographies of many other writers and artists. Including Marcel Duchamp, Djuna Barnes, James Joyce Marianne Moore and Gertrude Stein.
She was born in London December 27th, 1882. She attended a conservative art school and was influenced early on by impressionism. She achieved some success as a painter. Her paintings were displayed in the prestigious Salon d'Automne show in Paris 1905. She moved to the united states in 1916. Although her reputation preceded her, while hailed representing "The New Women"and the last word in modern verse, Loys poetry disturbed a few of her more conservative contemporaries. Marianne Moore found herself uneasy in Loys company. Jon Collier cited Loys verse as an example of the need for "objective Standards". Still she had many admirers like Marcel Duchamp, William Carlos Williams, and the members of the New York Dada group, including the Poet/Boxer Arthur Cravan home she married in 1918.
Being an artist Mina Loy was also labelled a Futurist, Dadaist, Surrealist, Feminist, Conceptualist, Modernist, Post-Modernist, Experimenting with media in her artwork she moved from oil to ink by world War one then lighting fixtures in the lat 1920s, and finally to sculptures featuring items collected from the streets and garbage cans of Manhattan. She hailed herself with her visual art more than her writing claiming that at the end of her life that she"never was a Poet".
She was a, poet, playwright, novelist,futurist, actress, Christian scientist, feminist, model, nurse, designer of lamps, and bohemian. She was one of the last of the first generation modernists to achieve posthumous recognition.
