Could you tell more about the Leaf Project? Sorry to say but I really can't see where the 200 hours went into. I'm sure there is more to it.

So the short version is that studio semesters are 18 weeks long with 6 hours devoted to studio each week alone. This project required two overnight trips to gather the leaves of varying hues since we live in the desert. Outside of both those things, it requires multiple iterations attempting to please our studio teacher. Each time we changed the leaves we had to take a scan and add it to our "process binder" to show the work at the final reviews. It's not just one layer of leaves either, the final is an extremely thick pile. It's possible I'm overestimating the amount of hours due to the extreme monotony of the busywork this (and other) studio projects involved, but ill just say that if I wasn't sleeping or in class, I was working on these damn projects every waking moment.
Wow, seems intense. It's almost like being absorbed in every aspect of your life into this project. I am not sure how that would ease your entry into the professional field.
