Closing Regards

This semester has been a combination of discovering newer forms of art as well as developing prior interests that I have had.  One artist that I had never heard of before that I have really taken a liking to is Dan Flavin.  His use of bright fluorescent lights in combination with minimalist and abstract forms, as well as architecture, is a concept that truly interests me.  It is something that I will look to incorporate into more of my work as an artist.  Sticking with the topic of architecture, our discussions of Frank Gehry and Frank Lloyd Wright have truly allowed me to better understand what I would like to potentially do with my future.  Another aspect of art that I will be taking more of a consideration in after this semester is the technical side of things.  I feel that it is important to not only enjoy a piece for its aesthetic value, but to also be able to understand what is going on behind the scenes of the work.
