Well, it is Saturday, and I am trying to do a million things today. Top of the list is to do two paintings for my final project in my Painting I class. The house is a wreck, and I am neglecting the feeding and care of my husband and children, and the garden is just a bunch of weeds, so I will be glad when this class is over. I am beginning to feel like I learned something though.....
This is an image of the painting I did on our final painting day of class. I love our teacher, because alot of the time we get to do clothed figures! Hooray for clothing!
I had a painting that I really liked, but then *dunh duhn daaaaaa" (cue evil music) The teacher made it around to my easel and took a look and told me it was getting too muddy. So she told me to use stand oil and a pallette knife and some brighter colors. This was in the last half hour of class! So I had to completely change the way my brain was working, and by the time class was over I was frustrated and greiving over the painting I had lost. Then today, I went to get my painting out of the car and took a look at it and, HEY! I actually like it. I am such a bipolar artist! Maybe I will make that the title of my painting blog.
Very good job mom! Kudos to you for listening to the teacher. I was getting frustrated with my head drawing teacher, thinking he wanted me to draw cartoony heads. But I finally realized where he is coming from and I've improved significantly. I can't wait to show you my newest drawings. ....yah, sometimes the teachers know what they're talking about huh? lol. I was just so used to being praised by Young, it was weird coming out here and being told I was wrong. LOVE LOVE LOVE YAH! Keep up the great work!
