Tonight I had drawing and Illustration...we first drew a model...I kept having to start over b/c I have a problem with drawing too big...no matter how hard I try I always try and draw full scale and a 5'7" person does not fit on a 3ft drawing board... Then we drew only the outline of the model with our left hand and without lifting our charcoal...it was actually better than the one I spent an hour on...as my teacher says...it shows true line and movement...it speaks louder than our previous pieces...or something like that. Then we drew the outline of people with our nose touching our boards so we couldn't see what we were doing, then with each hand doing each side at the same time in two different colors of chalk, then we drew in the dark, and all of these were the ones where your charcoal never comes off the page, a continuous line... It was very entertaining and I actually learned a lot! :)
Ok well I have to endure draping class tomorrow at 9 am (aka I have to leave my apt at 8:00am to catch the tube on time) so I better be off to bed...hope you all enjoyed a little peak at my classes. :) loves.

Wow your classes sound so awesome! I hate hand sewing too! but you will probably be glad later! did the envelope arrive? It is time sensitive so don't let it go by you want to keep all your options open! Have a great week. thanks for keeping us up on things!
Well, I knew that thimbles had a greater purpose than to collect them on shelves! Will add that to your Christmas list!
Your classes sound so very interesting. The art class is really exceptional in that you have a chance to be taught rather than just "judged". Do you have a problem with the draping class or is it just the hour and the trip in the morning? Are your room mates in your classes and on your schedule?
The Blog is wonderful. Thanks for all the info on "Kat's Crazy Life"
Love grandma
