My first week of school went smoothly and was lots of fun, except for the 104 degree day we had last Thursday. Ugh! Walking across campus felt like taking a trip across the Sahara Desert.
I am taking an American Literature class and an oil painting class. Oil painting is really not a media I prefer to work in, but that is what is required for this class. I had oil painting lessons a long time ago when I was a teenager. I liked it, but found it very messy.
Our first project in oil painting class will be a black & white still life. I don't have the advantage of taking my painting home and working on it because we have to paint from a still life that is set up in class by the teacher.
The coolest thing happened in my literature class. I have the same teacher I had last semester. Anyway, she told me she saw my artwork at a local chiropractic office and asked me to do a portrait of her two grandchildren! A new portrait commission always makes me happy!!!
