Blog Review

This week I am reviewing Leah Robinson's blog again. Her object is the GW Hatchet newspaper, and her display idea is to create an actual hatchet in a tree stump, alluding the the George Washington story of the cherry tree. She has made small scale models which helped me understand her concept. Although the "hatchet" concept is very literal, I think it is appropriate for her object. Newspapers shouldn't be cryptic so a subtle concept may not work well in this case. She has experimented with different versions of her drawstring bag from the packaging project. I noticed that she takes time to set up the photographs of her models/sketches/etc. Each image relates to the background and the objects are shown in use. This inspires me to take better quality photographs of my work. I appreciate how involved she is in the design process and I am interested in seeing the final display.
