So far this year I have registered for my Spring Semester classes and bought my books for the coming semester. Classes start on Monday and I'm actually excited for them. Last semester, my favorite class was Art History. I signed up for the 20th Century Art History class this semester. Despite the fact that the book cost a fortune, the class looks like it will be a blast!
For the past couple of days, I have also been working on a little project. I recently received two wooden books that have drawers inside. It took me a while to decide what books I wanted them to resemble. After some thought, I decided to do one Harry Potter and the other a book that contains seven of Jane Austen's novels. I chose the Harry Potter theme for the first one because the first real novel I read was the first Harry Potter. I believe that I got my current love of reading from reading as a child. Austen's works take more concentration to read than a Harry Potter, but I love them all the same. The collection of Austen's works that I have were a gift from my mom. The leather bound volume is huge and covered with a beautiful pattern. I had a great time painting each of the books and am still amazed at how well they turned out.
Today, I signed up with Shutterstock. This website provides stock photos for subscribers. I uploaded my first ten for review and am hoping that I get accepted. Here are some of the photos I submitted:
