once again, marc johns ftw.

we had a nude model today in art class. I don’t think I’m mature enough for this yet.

today was critique day in my drawing class. we typically go through everyone’s drawings one by one and discuss them after each artist says a few words about his or her piece. at one point, we got to what seemed to be essentially a million scribbles and a stick figure dog standing on a cabbage. a very unfortunate-looking girl in my class jumped up:

“OKAY soo this one’s mine. this is supposed to depict Artemis gazing longingly into the distance at the moon and this deer, which are both her symbols.”

the assignment was to draw a still life.

nothing rhymes with orange.

my teacher looked at my work and told me that it was “almost art,” which is a big step up from “everything leans a little to the left,” or my favorite “hmm, what happened here?”
