Last Post for today, I promise!

I just wanted to start actually talking about my experiences and such, like a journal or something of the sort.

So, here it goes.

Today, I only had two classes, Life Drawing and Fundamentals. Life drawing was... life drawing, as fun as that can be. I do like using those sanguine pastel things though! And fundamentals, I'm finally learning about color, and hopefully soon (next week!) I'll be learning how to paint! With acrylics anyway. I'm not sure I really want to paint with oils, because they are rather expensive and I don't really like all the prep work and the finishing up work. I much rather like the ease of watercolors or hopefully acrylic paint. :o

Anyways I've also tried out a new way of painting digitally in Photoshop, and I gotta say; that brush is freaking awesome! Holy crap!

Here's a link to the video --> http://www.vimeo.com/10743423

And the artist is also on DeviantART --> http://charlie140588.deviantart.com/

She has inspired me to continue practicing digitally, and also to try new things! :) What also helps is that I'm actually learning about color in fundamentals, so I have more of a foundation for painting and such. I really would like to learn how to paint. :(

Hopefully I learn while I'm in art school! :D

Peace out! -Jackie
