   Please forgive me, Tutor, as I have been horrible with turning in my assignments these last few weeks! Life has been hectic as of late, pressing events have gotten in the way of my still life, but I should be caught up within the next week or so.

   I would just like to tell you that it takes a lot to freak me out, so WAY TO GO! You are totally channeling Zelda from PET SEMATARY when you creep across the floor. *Great Job*

   I’m so terribly sorry I have been slacking off, Tutor!!!! Life and its many complications have come bearing down on me as of late! I have full intentions of finishing my picture though! Even if it is only for half credit! x3

   THANK YOU!

   another great lesson, I have been keeping up with the lessons. though the homework is not posted. videocameras -like all electronics- hate me. would photos be okay? or like I don’t know. I can’t seem to get the video off the camcorder, so maybe I could record the camcorder video with my cellphone and email that? it makes me sad that I can’t turn in what I have been working on =(

   I’m actually the first one to submit homework rather than being 5 weeks late as usual!! *does a happy dance* Ok, first of all here is a short film I made for this lesson…

   Here is a picture of my still life submission itself…

   And also I believe it has been awhile since you last visited Scotland and so I feel an incentive to come here again was in order. So here is a quickly sketched drawing of you using a very inventive means of travel to come to the UK….enjoy!!!

   Okay so I am a chef and i have fun with art everyday. My fun comes in the form of how I garnish and if you ask my wife or sister in law I will go on and on about my granishes and I really love doing them. So this week my homework is going to be some fun garnishes i have done this week at work.

    *she dusts sawdust off of her and admires her handy work.* “Yes, this should fit her just fine”, she mutters to herself while fighting a nervous twitch of her head. A Twitch that started once SHE showed up.

    She humms off key and hopes the other students and the Tutor enjoy relishing these details with her.

    I’m beyond behind in the lessons. But I’m catching up quick…

    I’ve painted my straight lines -
    http://mzlaveau.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2vp7mw

    and I’ve sharpened my pencil –
    http://mzlaveau.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2whidj

    I’ve also organized my workspace -
    http://mzlaveau.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2vp877

    and I did hold my pencil correctly -
    http://mzlaveau.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2whiwj

    but all I got was this -
    http://mzlaveau.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2whizm

    So after using my powers of google-fu, I taught myself about transferring color copies onto paper with acetone -
    http://mzlaveau.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2whj30

    I then posed my subject -
    http://mzlaveau.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2vp8ln

    And with much delight, selected my subject -
    http://mzlaveau.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2vp8ln

    At this point I brushed up on the previous lessons, and discovered that I had definitely would not have wrecked the bell curve with my answers to the midterm. I got about two thirds right. Sigh.

    Tomorrow, time to start some serious cramming. My canvas is calling, howling more like, and I’ve got some answers.

    15 mzlaveau said at 2:02 am on August 16th, 2010:

    Bugger. Lesson VI, selecting my subject, should be this.

    This week’s homework was so fun. But the Tutor should have at least warned us that painting is addictive.

    I did a lot of homework this week…and loved every minute of it.

    Heres my homework submission

    I had a lot of fun doing this, and i think i’d like to do some more like this again… i’m usually very rigid in my artworks, so doing this was really… invigorating

    21 Elizabeth Ann said at 9:52 pm on August 16th, 2010:

    Well Tutor, I decided to take a break from the still life and do something else. I like doing these when I can, they’re free-hand, I don’t use references and restrict myself to whatever tools I can carry in my handbag.

    http://elizabethunseelie.deviantart.com/art/Ducks-may-be-sinister-175607898

    Also I did these, I usually have to ration my character design work as it’s really addictive, but you said to have fun so here you have it.

    My name is Scully and I am painting the details with The Tutor.

    I felt a little weird taking my art supplies to the airport but it was well worth it so I could continue to work on schedule from the hotel. Sadly crappy hotel lighting and camera phone ate much of the detail which was this weeks assignment.

    Here is the first couple steps that mostly covered shading and finishing the jaw bone

    However, I spent most of my time this week working on the wolf’s fur. I took a couple pictures during the process

    I was going to post last week’s lesson video for nine, but after I edited it, I was not pleased at all. But I hope the Tutor was pleased with my photographic evidence for last week’s homework.

    To make up for my shameful video failure last week, I present the most complicated video I have made so far!

    Personally i think the back looks better lol. and its not actually completely finished i had some more images drawn onto the front of it but i have not been able to get to a store to get a paintbrush small enough as work is trying to kill me with to much work….but i am going out tomorrow to get the right paintbrushes and will have a completed photo up in a couple days if i dont drop dead of exhaustion

    So i was able to get to the store earlier today and though i didnt get a really small paintbrush like i wanted it still kinda turned out okay

    that is the actual finished one

    33 Anaesthesia said at 9:10 am on August 18th, 2010:

    So, explanation:

    I have discovered that YouTube does not like long videos of an .avi file type, and will cut them off for no good reason. My homework has been re-rendered as an .mpg and is now up on YT in it’s entirety.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Dhw11JQicE

    If you saw my previous submission before it got taken down, just skip to 4:43 and watch from there. The video appears to be lower quality this time, but not much I can do about that now.

    The actual painting: http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f16/Huginn_Muninn/Me/Class%20Is%20Now%20In%20Session/DSCN2732.jpg

    34 Lorrie said at 1:34 pm on August 18th, 2010:

    Tutor, I am so sorry that my homework is late this week. School just started, and its nearly impossible to do school homework and your homework during the week. I hope this doesn’t interfere with anything and I will get it done and turned in by this weekend. Once again, I am so sorry.

    I took this homework seriously. I colored in a coloring book while at work. Yep this has nothing to do with my still life but it was fun to be creative and not worry about being perfect. I went in a different direction then most but that’s me.
