portrait of the most important person in the history of modern drawing

me as warhol

try

i dont want to look like im trying too hard
i dont want to look desperate
im always trying so hard
i dont want to sound like im proving myself
prove it!
im just always trying my hardest
im always trying so hard
no one can see me trying
why dont they think i try
what do they think im lazy
i mean come on im trying so hard
why does everyone think im never trying so hard
i mean just why dont you just try to be me
what does that even mean
mean, mean, mean
there are like three meanings of the word mean
i mean at least three that i know
im trying to know
im trying so hard
cant you tell
why dont you think im trying
why isnt trying enough
why dont you just try to make trying be enough
why dont you just try as hard as me
then it would be enough
just try it
just try me

project ideas

The Loneliest Road- documentation of the "loneliest road" in Nevada
House Churches- document house churches
Lonely Landscape- photos of places i used to explore alone when i first moved to texas,
Something further investigating the fitness language- i started a project last semester about the language of fitness, specifically that of a single individual. i only scratched at the surface so this would be more narrowed down and get at the meat of what i was trying to say
Something dealing with themes of self/racial identity
- Saunder inspired self portraits that have to do with identity
-ethnographic photos, making sets or involving measurement,grid,scientific study, example:

-others perceptions
-invented criteria
-stereotypes
-what is the role of photography in a person perception of self identity
Use photo of grandparents
Use old photos of those i know
Found photographs
Make up a narrative

buff stuff

the first video from a performance piece im doing
in this project i am attempting to do the workout routines on my boyfriends brother Colin
what attracted me to this was the aesthetic of videos he captures of himself working out
the project may be about the obsessive nature and commitment to working out.
the commitment to ones body.
recording this process.
its also about showing off on the internet
