This week has been a great deal more interesting than I hoped that it would be which has caused me to be really extremely off of my game.... Which has a great deal to do with why I'm doing this blog so much later than the rest of you. Unfortunately when I thought about this week and about having a break, it didn't occur to me that I would have to do a blog. Anyways, so this last week all of us had a great deal of things to do because of the midterms and so on but if you pile up a crashed computer it gets a bit more nerve-racking. After getting my hard drive completely wiped out I got my computer back and it is still quite a bit broken, none of the drives work and to top it all of my external hard drive crashed the day after my computer did. Two years of schoolwork and 18 days of music down the drain... Sometimes life throws curve-balls and unfortunately I'm not the most coordinated person in the world. So here I am having yet to realize the significance of all of the information I have lost, possibly afraid of coming to that realization... a little bit of both. Spring break was good to me, it did exactly what it was supposed to do, gave rest to an overworked brain at the perfect time. But since this post is a little all over the place I think that I'm going to start over without starting over: This last week during drawing we worked on the feet and my goodness were they/are they hard. So I was standing there in class drawing foot by foot and thinking that I'm doing so well when I look over at everyone else and their drawings are beautiful in every way. So after Friday's class I came home and asked members of my family to pose their feet, thank goodness I don't do this on days with the whole body haha... anyways, I found that I improved but I feel as if I was drawing the feet wrong and I just hope that I will someday get the process down. Looking forward into the rest of the semester I hope to begin improving at a lot more than I have been but that is going to take more effort than I have been giving, and I'm not sure I have that much time but I will continue to try. Unfortunately I can't post any pictures this week because my computer drives aren't working.... but hey, hopefully I will get one up soon. [Okay, so I got a picture up even though it doesn't exactly fit in with this blog... this is my studio space in the sculpture lab, though it is now painted over. It influenced a project that I am working on now which I hope goes well]
