Post Grad School Fun with Art

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.

~Pablo Picasso

I just finished my first 6-week session with an art instructor here in Louisville. This is monumentous for me, because I promised myself that I would take more fun classes - for me art classes - once I completed grad school. I picked this photo to paint because it seemed like a good, simple study of shape and shading. My art instructor is amazing, explicit in her instructions, and instructs students as if their goal is to create professional quality work. She's awesome!
