All art, all the time!
So, this week I started an evening class at the Glasgow School of Art, a fine institution and a major part of Glasgow’s education scene. I decided to enrol in an acrylic painting class to really get to grips with some painting basics, and help me develop not just as a painter but as an artist in general.
It looks like it’s going to be a pretty awesome course! A professional artist coaches us, and we’re allowed to paint pretty much anything we want – he comes around periodically and gives us advice. I’ve already picked up a couple of tips that I’m going to practice this weekend, which I’m looking forward to.
I’m particularly enjoying the building that our classes are held in – since the art school suffered a bit of a blaze earlier on in the year, some of the studio space has relocated to the McLellan Galleries on Sauchiehall street, which is a grand building fit for inspiring art.
I really can’t express accurately in words how excited I am about this course. Which I suppose isn’t great, as I do claim to be a writer 😛 But if I paint something I’m particularly pleased with, I’ll be sure to share it with you guys!
Anyway, I’ve got a touch more art to do before hitting the hay, so have a good weekend everyone, and I’ll catch you on Monday!
Toodles!

Sounds like a good class
Here’s hoping, I absolutely adore the building it’s being held in. I felt massively nervous at first, though, as I’m conscious that these folks seem to have been painting for a while, whereas I’m still really finding my feet for it!
Eh, I’ll just challenge ’em to a manga contest, that’ll show ’em 😛
If I create something I’m particularly pleased with, I’ll be sure to share it with you all!
Painting sounds gorgeous. You’ll do a fine job ^^
Also, like the conclusion if finding the Sei-fu^_^
Err Sifu sorry! Went back to see if I spelt it right and I didn’t X_X;
Sorry I’ve not been responding to comments recently guys!
Here’s hoping I learn some useful stuff, might even be able to apply it to the comic!
A-Yue is probably the oldest design in the comic – I’ve had her character design down for about three years or more!
