Good news! You know those foul paintings I was forcing myself to finish way back when? I got an A on them!!! And not because my hard work paid off, or that they suddenly became wonderful--they were still awful. I mean, it was as if I bought a little pot of liquid ass and smeared it all over the canvas. But JC liked them! And that means a lot, as he is my faaaaaaavorite professor, and he knows his stuff. Even if I don't understand what that stuff is. I'm just glad that apparently my terrible paintings had a little of that in them.
Unfortunately, I've already rested (oh, how I've rested) on those laurels, and critique for our other batch of paintings is one week from tomorrow. And in addition to that, there's also a sketchbook check on Tuesday. But it's all good, I've been sketching a little tonight, TBC (and ideally finished) tomorrow. I plan on shooting out the other paintings and getting them to a "finished" place by Tuesday, so he can tell me what's wrong and what I need to fix for Thursday.
That leaves drawing. I really have to work on that. I've been doing precious little work these days...got an serious case of the senioritus.
Well, juried show is Friday, and I have an art camp I need to volunteer for Saturday morning. Stupid me, I missed the prep meeting tonight...that certainly doesn't bode well for my Grad school apps. Oy!
Okeedokee. Must sleep (as if the 14 hours I had last night wasn't enough). Night!
