I have an essay due next...Wednesday that I should really start on today. Or, y'know, as soon as possible. It's an essay on Popular Culture & The Self where you write about an aspect of pop culture that's had some sort of impact on you in some way. I'm probably going to do comics.
It should prove challenging, as I never really had to write reports or essays in high school.
My drawing class is...well, it's going to be challenging for me. It's lots of foundation stuff which I NEED to learn. I'm hoping it helps something click and I start to understand things better, as well as be able to piece things together properly, as well. We did re-draws of an image today. It was difficult for me because I could see all the inaccuracies in the image we were drawing from (it was a drawing of a still life of, like, a hat and an iron and some wire). I was trying to correct all the lines in my copy when that wasn't the exercise at all. The exercise was being able to pay attention to the angles and the curves to reproduce the drawing.
UUUUGH. SUCH A PAIN.
I'm going to hate it, I know it. But I NEED it and I will LEARN. FFFFFFF.

Date: 2009-09-04 02:25 am (UTC)I had an art class like the one you mentioned - the teacher was in love with "ugly" abstract art ( I mean that, he didn't like stuff most people would consider "pretty" ). And I kind of hated it but I think I gleaned some valuable appreciation for ugly abstract art... and considering I like to do morbid art it comes in handy sometimes XD Well on a personal expression level, anyway :P
