I'm really having a great time with my art classes this semester...figure drawing and figure modeling. The sculpture is new for me and a bit awkward, but the figure drawing is great. There's something about being able to accurately render the human figure that 's really inspiring and uplifting! Here's a piece I did for the last module and couple from this module. I have my sites set on getting out in the public eye and beginning my illustration career before finishing school and dedicating as much of my time to that as possible.
We just came back from Albacon (sci-fi and fantasy writer's convention in Albany, NY) and had a great time. The event could have been organized a little better and the website needs work, but the wealth of information from the panelists and guests was well worth going. We also met some really fantastic people in the bar...that just happened to be from my hubbie's hometown, teach at his school, shared my husband's name, and is a published author. Strange thing was that they weren't even there for the convention and they were staying in the hotel next door and only came over to the bar for drinks! There are no coincidences in this life, we were bound to cross their paths. They were really great people (Hi Pam and George!) and I hope we get to see them again sometime soon...
