Day 26 - Art School Days

 

Isn't it funny how the hallways in art school buildings all kind of look the same? They are all a little bit old, a little bit dirty (or a lot) and usually pretty empty. I'm taking a watercolor class at a local art college and it is so fun to be in an art classroom again. To be in a room full of people who are all interested in creating something or learning something about art. It's been a little while since I graduated and I've been wanting to take a class for a long time.

Not too long ago, my oldest friend came to town and we took a painting class at one of those places where they show you step by step what to do and they have drinks and food, etc. We had an amazing fun time, but it made me really think about what type of class I really wanted to take. I started looking for a watercolor class. I LOVE the way watercolors look, but I'm not very confident in it, so taking a class seemed like just the thing to get a little learnin', force myself to practice and be inspired to paint! I found a class and signed up. Tonight was the first class of five. It's Monday nights. I am excited to see how it goes, but at this precise moment...really tired. Off to dreamland.

Maybe when I've gotten a little more practice, I'll post some of the products of my class, but until then, hope you're enjoying the photos of my random daily life. :)

Thanks for stopping by!
