Sorry for the being slow with posting on this (Dad went into hospital briefly for an angioplasty--all is well, no worries). Anyway... back to the IMC! On Thurday, I'd finally got my image on board (Clayboard...needed (caffeine-wise!). Only one more painting day to go on Saturday before the showing of the work on Sunday, and the clean-up... Everyone was pretty frantic... TO BE CONTINUED LATER...

During the class, I hadn't managed to get to sleep before 2 or 3am, so I started to skip breakfasts in order to sleep in to at least 8:30. I ran into town (well, across the street and down a block or two...working digitally-- To be continued... SEVERAL MORE DAYS TO COME!!! ---------------- I hope all the Americans had a fab 4th! Fireworks, music, picnics, barbeques... what's not to like?

[Been listening to Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett tributes all day and all night... I grew up with MJ... loved him in the Jackson Five and lived through the craziness of the brilliant Thriller album... so I give up and wait until after I return (now!). Gah... It was like being on a bad dial-up! I don't know how the students stand it. Maybe they buy their own connection??? Anyway, more later!

I'm back, but still exhausted, so this will be a brief post! On the first day, after the moving our stuff to the studios (there were two in the Fayerweather building--Studio A downstairs and Studio B...me), while she got Ruth Thompson to model for her. I was still sorting through photos at 2am. And the late nights only got later from there! Agh! As I'm still Very Sleepy, that's all for now...!!!

OMG... it's over! I'm sorry for lack of updates, but the wireless connection in the Amherst College dorms is slower than dial-up AND we've been running about non-stop every day from 7:30am for breakfast...Definitely a once-in-a-lifetime thing. But they may do it next year! Wow. I'm going if at all possible!!! Plane flight home tomorrow... So tired! Very satisfied, even without finishing my painting..

For a fantasy illustrator, this is like dying and going to heaven! There are 70+ students, ranging from beginning to being tops in their fields. Everyone is excited and working together and amazingly kick... but most are going to eventually be doing traditional. I'll be trying oils for the first time since college. It's now 2am and we have to be up at 7:30 tomorrow! It's going to be a crazy-ass week!
