I'm not that great at painting and I really don't see myself as a painter, but it is fun! The art appreciation class has opened my eyes to the way I actually look at art, and since I always thought of myself as a glass "Artist", this really comes in handy. Even though I have taken workshops, over the years I've tried to become my own "original" type of artist. With this class, I came to realize I have no real clue about art, which put me at a great disadvantage. My pursue in these classes is more beneficial than I ever thought they could be. I look forward to Fall turning into Winter as my mind absorbs all that I'm learning.
On another note, I haven't put away my glass, my kiln is getting hot right now as the new palette for a fellow student is currently fully fusing in there. This time it's a Longhorn (per her request of course:) A few years back I purchased a Bullseye stricker glass that has a hue of a dark yellow, which is supposed to tun into a deep orange....I hope it turns out that way.
I am also working on my stained glass window that I had hoped to finish by the end of last July, but hoping doesn't work by itself.... No deadlines for myself, just working on it one weekend and one piece at a time.
