I did however have a great studio visit with Eve Fowler.
She thought that the skeleton was too much (its true, skeletons are kinda over.. I think Im almost over this work) but she liked my video work a lot. Its one sort of consulation. She also gave the best visiting artist lecture, I thought. Really smart and to the point but totally approachable and sweet. Wish I could have talked to her longer.

I would like to take this point to reiterate how much I fucking love my classmates.
Real bloody stand-up, genuine and bright folks! I think we'll make an abso-fucking-strong graduateing class of 2010. (Knock on wood). Not to gush too much. Its been a rough week (I have character a plenty... Im not paying 30,000 to have my ass kissed neither) and I must cling to something.
