Intermediate Drawing - Class #3

Class was a little disappointing today. We were supposed to bring in a picture of a building or other architecture. Turns out we copied them to work on perspective. I was sort of looking forward to the perspective class, because it's one of those things with which I haven't had a lot of practice. Alas, it's unfortunate that I chose for my building picture a postcard of a monastery in Bhutan that turned out to have the vanishing points for its perspective off the picture. I had a great deal of trouble trying to get things right, and it was lousy picture to use for practice at using vanishing points and guidelines. On the upside, the instructor was delighted with the Escher books that I brought in.

I was in sort of a dismal mood before the class, and so this was all extra discouraging. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

I changed my mind. Vote for mine! Please, please go and vote for mine! Just kidding - you can still vote for someone else if you like theirs better...just don't let me find out. = )

I told my mom about the contest and whatnot, and she had me bring up the page at the library so she could vote for mine (she claims that she really does like mine the best, but I suspect some bias). At the time, I was still behind first place by 5 votes.

...for those of you who don't know me in real life and missed the earlier link to my entry, mine is #17 on the front page of the contest. Just in case it matters to you. = )
