my name is Rachel Wolfson and I'm a senior
studio art major 
and I'm also doing pre-med. My senior
project
this year was about physical and digital
processes
of image making and so I was really interested in how I could tie painting practice
into new digital rendering technology
and so
I made a 3d model of a 
still life scene and these 3d models are
composed of both
three-dimensional form and also the
things called texture maps which are
photographic information that goes on top of the form
and so I pulled these texture maps out
of the software
and made paintings from them and
using that I put these paintings back
into the software to replace the
photographic texture map and doing that I
have been able to paint
the scene from all dimensions all and
perspectives
so it's kind of like a very parsed down way
of
during a very like hyper
observational 
like doing an intervention via painting
with this software.
