I love all of my children equally, but where STILL MY FATHER'S SON is concerned with blades, scalpels, knives, the paring away of identity to reveal what is left behind, TMHDOTTC concerns itself with explosive force: fusion weapons, fists colliding, bursting blood vessels, curses, vengeance.

this is where i ended up for the prompt for week 4 & 5 "paint a memory". my least favorite prompt, easy for me to blank on memories i feel like painting. i disliked what i did last week, ended up incorporating bits of what i painted over to capture seeing the northern lights last october:

but i think i understand whats being said. it was still a bit surprising bc during class shes had very little to say to me whereas spending 2-3x longer with most of my other classmates. but im pleased with how it went for everyone overall

the main feedback i got was from my teacher, saying 1) i should be working on bigger canvases (i already got a pack of one size up from what the supplies list said!), & 2) that i should be drawing beforehand so i have more of a specific form (this is a class about abstract & intuitive painting?)

we had our first crit in oil painting class last night! it went well! our teacher encouraged us to be nice, not like a typical art school, and i think everyone felt really good at the end. pretty happy with where im at in the class & id say mine were third best overall, with some of the best colors
