I come bearing much art.
Oddly, Spring Break was much more productive than Winter Break, even though the latter was thrice as long...
* The Noble, a commission colored in Painter 7 with "colored pencils" and "oil pastel" for the background. Playing around with the tools, pretty much.
* The Birth of "Venus" in progress, for Anime Club. The Fresh Produce topic this time is "bastardization", or putting anime characters in "unlikely situations". One of the samples/inspirations provided had Naruto characters inserted into classical art, so I figured it was a good opportunity to do this (painfully unoriginal) idea that I've wanted to do but had no reason to spend the effort. =P
* Bunnie! Charcoal pencil sketch from still life. I'm still wondering why my art teacher had such a thing. ^^;
* Young Girl, by Robert Henri. Colored pencil from oil painting. Unfinished, but looking sorta nifty. =) Just wish I had darker pencils, and such... I left the Prismacolors at school.
And finally, there is the ArtRenewal Salon Competition, which just completely flabbers my gast. I left this link last because I look like absolute carp in comparison to these blue whales. Go, and let your jaw drop accordingly.
Will I get to that level some day? It doesn't seem damn likely... but I do have another 40 years or so to try. =)

Hey, you said yourself that you've got 40 years to keep trying. You've already got the talent for it!

At least, I'm just going by this site's (http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/botticelli/venus/) info. No student of art history, I.
