The Art of the Personal Project is a crucial element to let potential buyers see how you think creatively on your own. I am drawn to personal projects that have an interesting vision or that show something I have never seen before. In this thread, I’ll include a link to each personal project with the artist statement so you can see more of the project. Please note: This thread is not affiliated with any company; I’m just featuring projects that I find. Please DO NOT send me your work. I do not take submissions.
Today’s featured artist: Josh Huskin
Dear Finley,
I created Dad Jokes in preparation for becoming your Dad. For 9 months I invited friends and strangers alike to sit while I told them my best Dad Jokes while capturing their reactions. My purpose is to juxtapose “just got your nose’ against the gravitas of fatherhood. I now feel fully prepared to embarrass you in front of your friends, and collect many sighs and eyerolls
Love,
Dad
