Art School Times

Back to School

So now I'm back in Boston and a few weeks into the first semester. This year I'm living with my friend Noel and her husband Tony, about halfway between BU and BC on the B line, at 1683 Commonwealth Ave, Brighton, MA, Apt 3. So far its been really great, our apartment is nicely sized and well furnished thanks to some sweet wedding presents and some good collecting skills on Noel and Tony's parts (Look at my sweet four-post bed and stereo system!). Also it takes 15-25 minutes to ride my bike to school and there is a Trader Joe's at right about the half way point, which is kinda perfect. Noel and Tony are a lot of fun to live with, as they have good taste in books, music, movies, and beer, also they like to cook as well so we have stopped buying things like bread, making it ourselves instead, which is both delicious and economical. Another thing that made moving in really nice was a visit from Len, Kathy, and Sean Burt, which was a really great break from the stress of starting up school and also led to me eating the best four pieces of steak in my life and finally understanding superiority of beef to chicken (Thank-you!).
As far as School I'm back in Roger's studio and also taking Drawing into Paint with him. I also have a Drawing into Print class and a digital Drawing Class as well a art history course on American art from colonial to 1940. My classes with Roger are the most important, my print and digital classes are going to be interesting because I almost no experience in either area, and the history class will provided some insight into some usually overlooked art that might actually have a lot to do with my own paintings.
