It’s that time of the term, when a young boy’s thoughts turn to many different things, because his short-term memory is severely affected by the lack of sleep brought on by working ungodly hours toward final projects in two art classes. That’s me. I am that young boy. It’s not to say that I don’t love it — the opportunity to spend so much time creating art and even the accompanying stress. The table is coming together (again, that’s Friday at 7 PM in Boliou), and I have a good idea of what I’ll be doing for my Life Drawing project now. Here’s a sketch I did for it, a little self-portrait with some text:

It’s in much more of a graphic/cartoon style than the actual project will be, but the text boxes relating to facial features/expressions are there to stay. I’m thinking of doing text that implies a more specific narrative, unique to each picture. I was lucky enough to have several friends who granted me photographs of their lovely faces. I’ve already started on two and plan to start a third tonight, finishing them probably over tomorrow night. Look for pictures on Friday!
