Burnt Out

Share

One of my favourite photos from the candle project I just finished for a unviersity art course.

Thought this would be relevant to any other students out there this time of year.

All made from paraffin wax, took approximately 2-3 hours to melt and over 20 hours to make.

Want to see all the planning and rationale that went into this project? I've got it all broken down on Evernote, including some extra concept art and a video! https://www.evernote.com/shard/s401/sh/5c6ea8c0-32c1-432b-9651-469f55cc629b/04637f138c49ac7d4d56599aae1eb602

Nice finish

A very nice finish here and we'll executed candle and wax created work some nice subjects they teach you in school this was a good finish shot here too and. Love the view shot even a nice elegant piece even with the candle lit up like that so nice job I think a colored mirror base might of had a small different effect but this did just fine it seems so anyways keep up the amazing work here

You know, this more or less describes the build up to deadline of most projects I did at Uni lol. Especially the later ones..... so many all-nighters

Why does this make me so sad? D:

Hehe sorry. It's supposed to evoke those kinds of emotions; or at least that's what I was going for.

If it helps any, I feel super stoked now for having done this project because I learned so much about making sculptures and working with wax!

No! My chocolate!

Good piece! Wish I could get into college. I just wish I knew how. I mean they just made it impossible for me and they do nothing to help.

So you melt a candle you made and take a picture of it and you ace your art classes? Cool! And I can see why. You capture emotions well. Could be brighter tho. I know its hard to tell with candles but its a little dim. They produce light but not enough. That could just be me tho.

Sabtastic responds:

I remember my application process for university being really confusing and frustrating. They really do make it difficult. ... As far as I know, though; most college/university campuses have some sort of student info center or head office that you can personally visit or contact-- they'd be the most helpful. Just give 'em a call and ask when and how you can sign up!
