The High Life
Yesterday was one of those days that was just sweet. The sun was out and I had a really good day. Started out with getting the boys ready for school- they didn’t fight at breakfast which is ALWAYS a good way to start the day. Dropped them off then headed out for errands before my class. (got cat food and cleaned the car) My campus is so beautiful i just love it. Got to class and my teacher was out sick but the model agreed to stay one hour-however, since the teacher wasn’t there he had to pose with clothes ON. I kicked ass in drawing- because it was something other than the human form! After wards a fellow student, Miles helped me make a registration board for my printmaking class. While in the printmaking studio I discovered that I am a bit of a hypocrite. I stayed in there for over an hour laughing and talking with the guys in there. I am still social- just picky who it’s with. There were 4 of us in there and we laughed for over an hour. The conversation was excellent too. Miles (whom i greatly admire for his art work) showed me some of his paintings done in acrylics. (I’ve been trying to get started in painting with acrylics-it’s a medium i’ve never used but I think it’s beautiful) I’ve been picking his brain since last term about this particular medium. SO he pulled one of his out of the painting room and told me how he did it. WOW- it was gorgeous! And his process seems so much simpler than the ones in the books. SO I am going to start painting in acrylics soon. I’m excited! So after my time hangin out in the art village I called my husband to see if he wanted to have lunch with me. ( a rarity because usually Tuesdays are spent on campus) I met him downtown and we went to the little Mexican food cart and I got NACHOS! MMMMM MMMM While we were having lunch a few of his coworkers came in to say Hi and ended up staying and chatting with us while we ate. it was another hour of laughing and good conversation. Headed home and got the boys- but had a very warm feeling inside because of my good day.
