I am going back to my sculpture class again tomorrow. Not teaching, but learning. I enjoy being in class as a student as much as being a teacher. I love learning new things. Although this is a really busy period, the only way I can get to do some art for myself is to attend those classes. For three whole hours I can make art uninterrupted by distractions. I look forward to that time with anticipation that I can get my creative juices flowing in a pleasant environment with like-minded people. My project from last term is still uncompleted, and I look forward to working on it again. In the past I have brought work home and found it difficult to finish except with very special effort to circumvent the continual distractions of phone calls, meal preparation, housework, and the relentless attention seeking antics of my children, both two legged and four legged ones. For me, class time is art time for now. I look forward to the day when art time can be most of the time! For now, at least I have three hours a week to spoil my artist self.
