Sophomore year! Spring semester! After last semester's dry spell regarding art, I am in studio-heaven this semester. At least one night a week I've been spending a couple hours in the basement of Monadnock, working on something or other for one of my two studio classes.

Drawing II: Professor is eh, but the class is fun! Same work and subjects as in Drawing I - geometric shapes, and later some still lifes - but in color. I miss charcoal and have learned that I don't really like pastels so far, but we're using an old favorite! Prisma Color pencils! I missed these things. And I love them soooo much. I haven't used them seriously since my first high school (so many years ago - at least 4 or 5), but the professor doesn't believe me. I just love Prismas.

Painting I: Quinn, my advisor! I love this man. I'm not 100% sure about the class yet, since I have never used oil paints. But I'm getting used to them. We work on the same stuff as from Drawing I and II - geometric forms and a couple still lifes in both black and white and color. The first assignment came out alright; I'm satisfied with it at least. I'll be taking pictures of my work in this class to post here; no worries!

And next semster should turn out like this as well - I want to take Drawing III and Glassblowing. I can't wait!
