the day doug cancelled class.

yesterday a terrific thing happened. yep, drawing class was cancelled. it's not that I don't like that class, it's just fantastic to get a break. I still worked on my drawing, and I still went to the lecture that we would have probably gone to as a class, but the pressure was off and it felt great.

here's how my day went:

I spent the morning and some of the afternoon working on my drawing/painting while listening to Les Mis (best).


then I went to a lecture by a sculptor from Paris.


after that we ate dinner on the back porch because it was so nice outside.
and then I spent the evening making my first-ever stencil. it turned out a little messy so I think I'll remake it, but I liked this one enough to cover it in brightly colored dots made with a nerf dart. genius? why yes. basically it was just a lot of fun.




it was a wonderful day.

weekend adventures.

final fridays was this weekend and it was especially fun for a couple of reasons. first was that we had a pretty terrific character join our crew for the weekend, (kara was in town) and second was that, in addition to all the great art to be seen, we got to see some live graffiti, and here are the pictures I managed to get of it.







that's all folks. good times.
