Sebastian Urbach

Hi, my name is Sebastian Urbach.  I am 13 years old and I took this course last semester and really enjoyed it.  I am a TA in the course and I look forward to seeing what everyone will make this semester.  I wanted to become a TA because I liked the course a lot and I wanted to see what people made and try to be more creative than I am as I'm writing this.  I look forward to seeing everyone in class! :)

Introducing Crystal Ramos

Image
Hi! My name is Crystal Ramos, I was born and raised in San Antonio TX. I am still new to Trinity University as I have only been here for a year some months as a CSI Administrative support specialist. My plans for the future? Hmmm well, I've always wanted to do something that involved art since I love the subject. I find art super fascinating and exciting to see. Someday I would love to be an art teacher for young kids.

Introducing Randy Wallace

Hello,  My name is Randy Wallace . I am the Studio Manager in the Dept.  of Art and Art History. In addition to,  Managing the Art Studios, I teach courses in the areas of Design and Sculpture.  My interest in this course is to broaden my tooling skill set; so that, I may better assist students with realizing their concepts.

My vocational area of focus is expressed through the vernacular of sculpture and performance art drawing from late 19th to ...

Jacob Iverson - Pencil Box

Image
For this project, in which we utilized and familiarized ourselves with laser cutting fabrication, I chose to create a Pencil Box for my desk at home.  Initially, my design was to create a set of guitar picks for me and my friends. This design would've featured their initials, a custom design pertinent to their personal taste, and individual engraving.  However, a few things got in the way - with the largest being the 3-D requirement.   From there, I decided to rethink my interest, and found that making a pencil holder for my desk would both look nice for my current aesthetic, and solve my issues of disorganization. Coordinating the design was a fun experience. I wanted to distinguish the appearance without overdoing the approach, and so I decided for an angular indention on the topmost edges of the box. I also decided to make the bottom piece of wood bezel-less; in that, the wood almost cascades down, giving a seamless look.  From here...
