No fingerprints!
Seriously, I have rubbed off the whorls on my fingertips. It happened sometime during my 5 hour art class today, when we continued out charcoal studies and I spent the entire five hours using white conte crayon and black soft pastels to bring out the highlights and shadows of draped cloth. I washed my hands a grand total of seven times to clean off the black dust so that I could rub in the white without darkening it too much.
Also, I am jealous.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
snahjerblah gets to see The Dark Knight at midnight tonight. My DES 16 TA got to see it in IMAX at an insane three o'clock in the morning.
On another note, I won a consolation prize in a Gaia art contest! :whee: Got an Assassin's Guise, worth about 17k or so gold. Better than nothing, since I only submitted two pencil pieces that only took me 15 minutes or so to draw. XD
This weekend, my favorite ART 2 assignment yet: self portrait! Except I have to use the aforementioned materials, which are pure evil to keep clean around and the only places with a mirror outside the art rooms are bathrooms.
... Oh wait! The Mexican restaurant across the street has mirrors on its walls! If I buy something, maybe they won't mind me using it... Hmmmm....
