Looks like I did better than I thought. I got an A- in both my Figure Drawing class as well as English Composition. I'm doing much better than in high school. I guess paying this much to go to school is more motivational for me. I'm sure it has nothing to do with being older since I'm still a kid in my head.
Well, spring semester is in the bag. It's been crazy fast with the two classes I was taking. Even though I was dreading English Comp, I think I did pretty good. Figure Drawing has been great. Even though I'm taking my classes online, and have to draw from photos the school provides, I've learned a lot this last 15 weeks. I even managed to draw from a live model when I went to Dallas to do research for an English essay. I'll be posting those drawings soon. I'm taking the summer off so I can convert a building in the back yard into a studio space. I'll be back at it in the fall. Looks like Figure Modelling and Still Life are next on the schedule.
Well, the first semester of school is over. I actually got good grades, an "A" in Photography and a "B+" in Analysis of Form, my basic drawing class. Spring semester starts Jan 26 and it looks like I'll be taking Figure Drawing and English Composition. So far my experience with The Academy of Art University is great! I'm working on a drawing right now and I'll post it when I get done and give it to the person it's intended for. They don't know I'm doing it and they check in here from time to time, so I don't want to give it away with a WIP.
Well, I decided to upload a couple of my charcoal drawings for school. Out of boredom, really. Anyway, I'm headed into my 8th week of study with The Academy of Art University. I'm taking all my classes online as I have a 50 hour a week job and live in Texas.
