1. I moved to a place where I don't have anywhere to paint.
2. I got engaged, and have been very busy being in love with my fiance.
3. I didn't feel like it.
Those are my excuses. Feel free to volunteer any of your own.
The News:
I started my next set of classes with Joseph Todorovich. So far, 3 out of 4 paintings have been very mediocre. I think this is because I've been experimenting with each class this time around, trying new things. I'm learning things, but after awhile I just want to have a nice product at the end. I think there's a balance. I have one more experimental class to go, and then I'm going to go back to just trying to do a good job. But I did paint one that I'm really happy with:
I had my first proper gallery show! And even better, my painting sold about two weeks later! To someone I didn't even know, which is infinitely cooler than, say, my dad buying it.
Here's the link to the gallery I showed at: The Barn Gallery.
In a couple of weeks I'll be moving again, this time to my very first, very own apartment. One day I will not have to seize control of my poor fiance's living room for my painting needs, but for now it's at least something!
More soon. Love, Nat
