Flappy head, flappy head.
I really feel like i don't have anything to say lately except BOY OH BOY I SURE DO HAVE A LOT OF SCHOOLWORK. And i do. Thank goodness for Passover and an opportunity to catch up, else this semester would be a disaster ( Read more... )
And it does seem rather over the top, but he did say he was throwing us into the deep end. o.o The first project is a life-size skull, so it's really not that much better. I think his idea is to winnow out the not-sure-if-serious students ASAP, of which a fine job has been done; i think everyone who was there for funsies and an easy A has vanished.
I did tell him, and he just sort of shrugged and said, "Sounds interesting; let's see how you do!" I've never seen portraits done by other faceblind people, either, so i can't blame him for being curious about how it turns out; it's just intensely difficult, and i have no idea if mine -really- resembles the model or not.
(we do have a set model: a plaster cast of - a self-portrait he did. :x Cheaper than a live model, i guess, and he definitely will know where the mistakes are.)

(I am kind of a softie for all things kitty-related, in case it wasn't GLARINGLY OBVIOUS. Can't wait to see the pictures!)
The class sounds really awesome, if challenging -- I look forward to hearing how it all turns out! (And fingers crossed that someone was there to unlock the cabinet, yeeps!)
