It's that time of year again and time for a new journal.

Things have gotten interesting here. I've finished my A-Levels, for now, and I'm currently waiting for the results, (come on August 20th!). If all goes well and I get the grades I want I should be off to Staffordshire University to study Animation. I'll be living on campus so this should be interesting.

In other news over the winter I took a Life Drawing class which while it didn't thrill me was interesting. It wasn't so much a class in getting the human figure exactly right rather it seemed to be more concerned in how the image made you 'feel'. Staffordshire also does life drawing and I'm hoping it'll actually each more about actually drawing a person.

Last Saturday some of my work, three pieces you can see here and a fourth a can't post yet, was put on exhibition in 'Landfill' an exhibition in a artist's studio in Magull Here's his website, I suggest you go look, [link] This coming Tuesday another painting of mine, 'Untitled' will be on show in the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. It's an old pic and makes me cringe but it's great that it's being shown at all so I can't wait.

For anyone interested I've also been on Concept Art a bit recently, here's the link to my sketchbook:

Look out there for the aforementioned 'un-showable pic', it's my entry for the Girl's Thunderdome and it looks like it's gonna be a fun contest.

I've also recently, when it eventually arrives, got my hands on a Bargue Drawing Course book and that's been giving me sleepless nights, almost, , I can't wait to look through that. If/when it arrives hopefully I'll be posting some studies from that here and in my CA sketchbook so look out for that.

Last but not least the grandparents are over from South Africa for a month so we've been having fun entertaining them.

On that note I shall leave you with a goodbye and goodnight.

P.S. Commissions open, PM for info.
