This is a place where IUP’s Mixed Media Students present their influences, inspirations and triggers to make art. This is not only a collection of other artists that they admire, or look up to. This is a list of stimuli that impacts their art, provoke them to do things that they do, push them to express themselves in the specific way.

10/17
I believe my inspirations for research this week are old wallpaper patterns, antique books, and Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas". I know this seems like a random assortment. I want to incorporate the old wallpaper patterns into upcoming print work. As for the books, I like the ones that are thick with the ornate spines. I am going to try carving into them or making "pop ups" for an upcoming sculpture project. Finally, at this time of year I can't help but think about the film, "The Nightmare Before Christmas", especially since we are trying out stop motion. It makes you appreciate how long it took them to make 30 seconds, let alone an entire film!
