yet another hobby

On our way back from Minneapolis last night, Dave and I stopped by our favorite book store. I found a couple of drawing instruction books on the clearance rack. They were super cheap and looked pretty decent, so I bought them. Dave didn't say a thing, even though we both know that it won't likely stick.

My most recent previous hobby was sculpting, but I'm at an impasse there. I really need instruction to get comfortable with the material, but I can't find lessons anywhere here in Rochester. Maybe in the Spring I can find something in the Cities that I can drive up for once a week.

The nice thing about drawing is that it's pretty cheap to take up. And, if it sticks, there are all kinds of places here that offer lessons. Anyway, it'd be a nice break from the computer.

It's really too bad that the gal that taught my first drawing class at the Rochester Art Center has moved to Chicago (Riverside, more accurately). She is phenomenal in the teaching of art, so I guess teaching art is a good career choice for her.
