It's nice to have things jarred up like a little squirrel isn't it? I have a few jars of jelly I've made recently but they are all higgledy-piggledy.<br /><br />I love life drawing and painting, I did a lot of it in college and I feel your pain, we had a teacher that used to out charcoal lines on our work and say 'oh, you can rub it out' but you never could! I paint a lot, but honestly my crocheting has rather taken over....I must get a better balance somehow.*https://www.blogger.com/profile/10821840185143701654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-89512969060804520662011-10-22T03:18:23.136+11:002011-10-22T03:18:23.136+11:00Wow!

Those little jars are great, Dave had some similar ones but we got rid of them before he moved (we got rid of most if his kitchen stuff) to cut down on what was to be put in storage. <br /><br />I think you should try to speak to your art teacher about her 'taking over' on your painting... if you are brave enough you could just mention that it felt like she was doing it for you and would prefer it if she demonstrated techniques on separate paper for you. As long as you are polite (which I know you would be!) I'm sure she wouldn't mind and would understand what you say about wanting it to be your own work.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16043065727770116407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-74842839103190263082011-10-20T07:49:50.854+11:002011-10-20T07:49:50.854+11:00I can understand how you must feel about your pain...I can understand how you must feel about your painting - but I still think that what you have painted is very good. I also know how you feel about the end of school - it's a big change, and yes, it does all fly by so horribly quickly.<br /><br />Pomona xPomonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18399181139470676975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-7055334440853574032011-10-20T04:19:11.999+11:002011-10-20T04:19:11.999+11:00I hope all went well with Miss C!

I'm supposed to be making a garland for the girls Christmas fair.<br /><br />How frustrating that your teacher 'does' rather than teaches. The painting is stunning though! xxTerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17432114186589211660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-37451924705597602942011-10-19T23:02:33.259+11:002011-10-19T23:02:33.259+11:00Hey Anne, lots of hooky happiness going on at your...Hey Anne, lots of hooky happiness going on at your place.......<br /><br />Nice wander around your garden, beautiful blossoms.<br /><br />Love all the little glass jars they looks so sweet all lined up full of spices and that shortbread, yummo........<br /><br />Your painting is coming along and I was admiring the nose as well, great job.<br />Your teacher sounds rather frustrating, some people are born to teach and have the knack and others well...........<br />If your ever do another portrait I'm sure you'll nail it and won't need any help at all.<br />Hope you found some bargains at Spotlight,<br /><br />Claire :}Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09742003349610251189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-61774892898701412662011-10-19T20:49:47.254+11:002011-10-19T20:49:47.254+11:00That really is too annoying of your teacher.

No one wants their work taken over. You shouldn't do it to children and neither should you with adults! I think I would say something. Perhaps after a lesson; tell her how it made me feel etc. <br /><br />I think it looks great any way. Excellent nose I thought, and they are not easy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-62135188631692501562011-10-19T19:53:30.180+11:002011-10-19T19:53:30.180+11:00I love the colours of your star bunting.

Love you...Oh wow - so much good stuff in this post.<br />Love your Chinese Lantern it's beautiful - and a purple rose!<br />Your granny rug is looking fabulous - I love the mix of colour you have selected.<br />Shortbread bickies - yummo - in my top 3 favourite biscuits of all time.<br />Great little bargain jars - great that the lids are clear.<br />I think your painting is coming along beautifully - I love the pot in the background.<br />And it must be so bitter sweet to see your girls growing up so quickly - my sister's eldest is 14 and it's hard to think in 3 short years he'll be off to university and on his way to grown-upness.<br />Driving tests seem a lot more tricky than they used to be.freefallinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08863000229609701796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308419741401177812.post-55247716473553114212011-10-19T12:06:57.488+11:002011-10-19T12:06:57.488+11:00How sad that you have to have one of those teacher...How sad that you have to have one of those teachers - they are the worst because they don't really teach just model. While you were grizzling I was looking at the ladies face and thought what exquisite features she has but mostly her mouth, nose and cheeks. How I wish I had the those skinny genes. I hope you have a better time at spotlight than I had yesterday. It is so huge that I came away again with only a small portion of what I needed because the choice was too much to make.
