One looks, looks long, and the world comes in. – Joseph Campbell
Before the final critique begins I watch and listen as students appreciate each other’s work and note their individual progress. Some students remember how nervous they were on the first day of class when I said they would not be using any pencil in my drawing class.
It takes a while but finally I get them to organize so we can begin class.
It’s been a good semester. This group is full of personality and support for each other. Here are a few highlights from yesterday’s critique.
