Blank canvas.
Why, yes. Yes, this afternoon I did take a picture of my newly purchased canvas sitting on an easel across from me. And here it is:

Go on and laugh, but I’m in love with it. I got started right away and it’s now red, but part of me always wanted to keep it this way. It’s in my new storage locker at school right now, so I won’t be able to work on it again til mid-week - which is actually ok, because it gives me time to really think it through.
I discovered a room at SVA so dingy that no one ever wants to go in there and I pretty much have it to myself all week except for (I think) three hours on Wednesday when a drawing class is held there. Oh you wacky Manhattan snobs… don’t you realize that dingy with no windows but about 800 square feet in the middle of Chelsea with a good ventilation system and two sinks = heaven? No matter. Better no one realizes this but me.
Anyway. I’m back to drawing at home tonight, which should be really fun.

Good to hear that you’re getting settled in your new space at school.

Eric - sadly, no. Sorry. But your website totally rocks and I love it. Just had to say that.
