End of the school year

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 17, 2009, 5:19 AM
Hello my friends!!!!!!!

Have you missed me?? I've certainly missed you guys.
As you may know my hubby and I moved continents just over a year ago and at the beginning of this year I started a graphic design and advertising course. I've been doing it part time (evening classes) and working part time..it's been a pretty full on year.

Now the classes are coming to an end and I'm looking forward to no more homework for a while. But to top it off, just in our last couple of lessons of digital art classes we started doing portraits. WELL, you can imagine I was looking forward to that!!! And how AWESOME has it been...

Dare I say it, I actually (for the moment, will it last?) enjoy it more that traditional drawing and I spent 20 hours on the colour one (I'll upload the black and white one too). Although that sounds a lot, it isn't really and considering it's only my second digital portrait, I know I'll get quicker at it.

Some of you out there will likely be thinking: oh no, another wannabe digital artist...Yeah, perhaps you're right. But I gotta give it a go and see where it takes me...

Now all I need is a wacom board HAHAHA!
