Still working on my shop, but all things in time! <br />
<br />
Also, I finally started using instagram. You can follow me here: <a href="http://instagram.com/courtneyblazon" target="_blank">@courtneyblazon</a>.<br />
<br />
I've been taking Lilla Rogers Assignment Bootcamp class to help me loosen up, use my sketchbook more, respond to assignment criteria more fully, and most importantly, work on my experimentation! I will be posting things from my sketchbooks as I work on them and posting them on instagram. Below is work from my first assignment, which was to make a journal cover with the theme of Edwardian brooches.<br />

I am working on a new website right now, and here's a little preview of it. It will be www.courtneyblazon.com, and I hope to have it done in the next week or so. I will keep this blogspot, but will likely only update it once in a while, and direct people to the new site! </div>

It's based on one of a series of paintings by Thomas Hart Benton which were created in the wake of Pearl Harbor.<br />
<br />
Benton's objective for this series of paintings, called "The Year in Peril", was to "portray America's enemies as genocidal maniacs".<br />
<br />
I made this commission for someone who wished to incorporate more realism into the figures, particularly in their clothing, more symbology that would speak about or against the war, and incorporation of some of the elements of the American propaganda that Benton likely looked at when creating the paintings.<br />
<br />
These paintings were not looked upon favorably when they were created, but you can see the from the original, pictured at top, that Benton painted these with a passionate anger and in a fervor. My mission was to recreate the composition and color palette, while using hindsight to reinvent the concepts. As with all assignments, I keep my personal feelings to myself, even when creating horrifying imagery.<br />

Since I read Lord of the Flies at age eleven, I have counted it among my favorite books. It was only recently that I recognized that a lot of my art is influenced by the ideas and themes in the book. Pigs, Islands, Boys, History, and Conflict are all things that I deal with in my drawings and are related to the book. I wanted to make some pieces discussing the parts of the book that most struck me when I first read it.<br />
<br />
The top drawing is a depiction of Simon, moments before his death at the hand of the other boys. The bottom drawing is of Ralph, when he is boar hunting with Jack Merridew and the other hunters, and he gets wrapped up in their savagery.<br />

Here is the installation of the artwork I did for a traffic signal box in Missoula. It features a scene from the historic 1908 flood, which destroyed the Higgins Bridge. The location of the traffic signal box is right by the modern day Higgins Bridge.<br />

This is a design for a vinyl wrap that will be applied to a traffic signal box in downtown Missoula. It's based on a flood that happened in 1908, destroying the town's main bridge and many other structures. The box measured about 3 1/2 feet tall and 2 feet wide.Courtney Blazonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02859701433133480373noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5799416948195628366.post-72123003958121008942014-08-08T21:27:00.001-07:002014-08-08T21:35:42.898-07:00Homestead: A Brief History of Our Places <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
