Setup of the blog was discussed today. Writing and note taking are things I generally try to avoid. Not that I dislike writing but I don't normally have time for it. Being part of the course requirements will hopefully act as a catalyst to allow me to explore writing(explanation of is to complex). I may use this opportunity of the blog to also post the happenings from my sculpture projects class. I'm sure my thought processes and sculptures will begin to relate as we go forward.
When Malena discussed the money making options and how we are academically trained artist reminded me of conversations with an instructor I once had years ago. He told me once that i didn't have to go to school to be a working studio artist. He also told me to go to a school with an active sculpture program; I didn't do either of what he said I should or could do. Instead, now I Work and attend UNCC part time. As the book In the Making states there is no one way to be an artist.
